I had the exact same issue last night and I did the same thing you did with pressing ESC on the cutscene and complete the bonus mission first. I think that caused it. I reported it as a bug but sadly found no other way around it than to re-do the FP and not backing out of any cutscenes.

Did you claim it from "Unclaimed items"?

Hello. I am interested in getting 258 main-hand and off-hand before jumping into Ranked PvP. And yes, I know it will be obsolete come next month but it's still something I'd like to do. I've had one go at Queen on VM but that was with a group in which most members clearly didn't know what they were doing (myself somewhat included). I've read a guide on the mechanics and watched some videos but nothing will of course come close to getting the practical experience. The problem is that most groups forming in chat - understandably so - require you to have completed the achievement before. Now I understand the reasons as to why but am wondering how people like me get started on doing Queen VM. I suppose people do it with their guilds? As I am not a member of one maybe I should go looking to join one? Do most guilds run Queen VM on a frequent basis or will I have a hard time finding one that may be willing to run it with me? Thanks in advance.
