How to help Triss finish what she has to do in Novigrad?
I am in the middle of the Brother's in arm quest, and tried to recruit Triss. Talking with her, she said she has to finish something first. Now the quest marker is on Triss and the quest description is that I should help her finish what she has to do. Yet I cannot seem to progress a new quest line. I can ask her about her hand, though this is related to a previous quest in the Witch hunter's lair.
Is this quest bugged? Or do I have to get the relevant quest some other way?
Best Answer
The questline broke to using the Fast travel everywhere mod.
Apparently, this is because I used the Fast Travel From Anywhere mod during the Get Junior quest.
I figure this might be beneficial to others, so I've made a small list of quests that will break if you fast-travel out of a building during these quests:
Novigrad - Pyres of Novigrad: Do not fast travel out of Triss's house. You won't be able to talk to the beggars or follow the thief.
Novigrad - Get Junior: Do not fast travel out of Junior's mansion. This prevents you from completing a main quest and several 2ndary quests including "A Favor for Radovid", "Redania's Most Wanted", "Now or Never".
Kaer Morhen - To Bait a Forktail:
After killing the forktail, you need to race Eskel down the mountain. If you fast travel out of the cave, you'll need to go back to meet Eskel.Basically, the rule of thumb is to avoid using the instant fast travel while you're on a mission or in a mission area.
I can confirm that this was the issue as on a 2nd replay I refrained from using fast travel mod in quests, and everything worked as expected.

Where does Triss go after a matter of life and Death?
Triss received a message from Lady Ingrid Vegelbud, who you may remember from the side quest \u201cCarnal Sins.\u201d Triss needs to meet a man in the fish market. Go in her stead, while she waits out nearby. Leave the hideout and go to the fish market.Does Triss leave forever?
You can convince her to stay after the Now or Never quest, but that will put Geralt into a romance with her. If she leaves, she will come back later in the game anyway and you can complete the quests you still have left.Where is Triss after you ask her to stay?
If you want Triss to love you back, then you have to tell her to stay with you and that you love her. She will then come back after sailing away at the end of the quest, before getting a little more intimate at a lighthouse.How do I trigger Triss quest?
The quest does not just 'pop up'. After you've completed 'Matter of Life and Death' you have to visit Triss in her hideout. She will trigger Now or Never.Help Triss Finish what she has to do in Novigrad

Answer 2
It sounds like you already helped her evacuate the mages from Novigrad (Correct me if I'm wrong. That quest is required to recruit her).
So, it looks like there are 2 related quests: A Matter of Life and Death and Now or Never. From the quest description, it sounds like on of those are missing. If all of these quests are completed, she should show up at Kaer Morhen automatically when the time is right. But the marker obviously should not be there..
It's likely a bug if those quests are all finished and the marker is still on Triss. If you find that to be the case, you might have to reload an earlier save. You might lose hours of work,depending on how far into the quest you are, but being this far into the game, it's probably worth it if you can reload far enough.
Good luck!
