NIN Af Quest Issue

I am working on my ninja af, since I recently leveled the job, and I am having problems getting the quest to work.

So, here's what I did.

1. Talk to Ryoma

2. Tried to talk to kagetora, but couldn't get anywhere with him. Therefore I tried to skip.

3. Tried Ensetsu, and the storyline progressed where I am told to search eastern altepa desert.

4. Travel to Eastern Altepa Desert and attempt to pop the spiders.
They will not pop. I have tried everything. Logging out, talking to all the npcs again. Everything...

Anyone else experienced this problem?

Only thing i can think of is have chasing dreams active and need to try to talk to Ensetsu again, either by zoning or immediately trying again.

Correction, meant kagetora.

Yeah, I tried that. I have talked to several of the npcs several times, zoned a lot, waited a game day, tried during the day, during the night.

It is really getting annoying.

Completed a file check, but to no avail...

Any other ideas?

That was my only guess, I'm sorry. Maybe GM it.
