    Try the "ancient wyrm" lair, the root is there after the ghost shows you all places.

    The root is on level two, to find it after Mandal shows you where he threw it over the rocks, go back to level 1 to the wyvern lair. Go down the "stairs", where the floor is caved in, to level two and wait a second. The roots should appear in the southern portion of the room on the floor. It will not be there until after Mandal takes you down to show where he threw the root over the rocks.

    You need to wait until after the Mandal cut scene, where he shows you where he threw it over the rocks. Then go down to the FIRST level and find the stairs that go down to the wyvern lair... very small chamber...the root will be on the floor in the southern part of the chamber. Note --- you will see the small chamber on level 2 I think (next to the tropical area), but you can't get to it from there...you need to go down the stairs to the next level and from there down to the wyvern chamber.

    [​IMG] The item code is 61GENMM if you still can't get it. I did all I could of the quests up to that point, but the mandrake root still did not show.

    [​IMG] I also have the mandrake root problem. I believe all the prior quests have been completed and the spirit showed me where he threw the root over the wall. Unfortunately I killed the Ancient Wyrm before all of this and the root does not show up. I think there may be a bug in our midst.

    I hate cheating, but used the cheat console anyway.

    Here is the entry -> ctrlaltdelete:createitem("61GENMM,1)

    I had also killed the ancient wyrm before. But after the cutscenes, I went back to that room and found it on the floor where the wyrm was standing (to the south). It looked like a BAG. Use the ALT key.

    The problem where modified root does not appear was reported already and all I can say about it is that it happens in cases where:
    - the whole cutscene gets "choppy"
    - some parts of cutscene replay twice

    Why does this happen noone knows (yet), but in these cases only console command helps.

    And it may happen regardless you've killed or not killed the wyvern.
