Bugs[]
- The letter may not spawn in Cedric's inventory if he dies.[verified]
- Cedric Hopton may be found dead in the water tank after a settlement attack. This can happen before the quest involving him.[verified]
- Sometimes Cedric will spawn in the floor of the Warwick Homestead. He cannot be interacted with while in this state. [verified]
- Reloading a save prior to rendering of the Warwick Homestead can solve this issue.
- Leaving the area and coming back at a later time may solve this issue.
