I can't finish the quest "Ay Vaz's Masterpiece"

[ivra]

Known issue. From the bug thread:

Quests and Bosses

1. Ay Vaz's Masterpiece: Several players have reported the counter does not go up for defeating all three pirate ships, make this quest unable to be completed. A save game where it can be reproduced is here.

Please let us know if you find a workaround.

As it is a quest, i would imagine even if the latest patch has a fix (not mentioned in changelog) it would still need a game restart..... I have the KBScanner and believe that you can edit save files with that so does anyone out there know how we could do this please? Thanks!
