When I go to Twillen to get my reward for placing the statues, the chest is empty.

Has anyone else gotten this issue?

My guess is you placed them incorrectly

** Spoiler **

















Despite what Twillen tells you, the Eagle goes in the Mire of the Damned, the Dragon in Bootleg Bay, the Bear in Kriegspire, the ??? in Sweet Water, and the Wolf in Dragonsands.

Sorry tp necro this, but Twillen just deceived me too. I placed all the statuettes and came to hand in quest. Quest is completed (and my quest log is clean now), Twillen is gone, but chest is empty. Those statuettes are placed automatically, I just clicked on each pedestal. I don't think you can put wrong statuettes on them.

I can't speak to the lack of a quest reward, but I can confirm the statutes are placed automatically. You can't put the wrong statute on a pedestal.

Well, at least I can't be much upset about empty chest. I got all artifacts I wanted, I have nearly 2 millions of gold. I thought maybe the chest is empty because I reached artifact cap and that chest has as very high chance to have artifacts.
