The Witcher 3 Brothers In Arms
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.
The video above is the The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt Brothers in Arms: Skellige Quest Walkthrough and shows how to complete Brothers in Arms: Skellige, the quest featured in The Witcher III: Wild Hunt. Brothers in Arms: Skellige (glitch-bug) First thing Id try would be go to Kaer Trolde and see if you can finish Kings Gambit. But just in case you cant figure it out. You can just go to Skellige, get on a boat, and go to the Isle of Mists to progress the game. The Brothers In Arms quests will fail at that point though.
Is this quest bugged? Or do I have to get the relevant quest some other way?

To fix these issues you can use the console.
If you are stuck at the 'Brothers In Arms' quest with Triss, open console and type in the following 'below' in this order. It will start a quest that is missing from your game. The quest to find Philippa Eilhart 'Redania's Most Wanted'. After you complete that quest and turn it in to Radovid, it will trigger 'Now or Never, and so on. You game is back on track and fixed.
Reason the quest gets bugged. After you find Whoreson and complete the quest, you must leave the area through the gate. If you do not, it will not trigger the mission 'Redania's Most Wanted' and so on.
There is a mod that lets people fast travel from anywhere and this is what causes the issue for most people. They fast travel out of Whoresons house instead of passing through the gate which of course a ruins a huge chunk of the game.
k0pernikusThe 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.

k0pernikusk0pernikusIt 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!
The questline isnt broken. You just have to look in your secondary quests and complete any that have anything to do with Triss. This is the same for all allies that you try to recruit.
Do the side quest for the fox mask. (Buy the outfit don't be a cheap arse) Lol opened up dialog for me with Triss
You just have to find Albert in the purple panther mask. If you head out of the courtyard towards the man with the dogs in the yard, to the left is a small walkway where i found him talking with a few people.

It seems there is a bug in Witcher 3. I am not using any mods and I finished all the secondary quests. There are several similar questions on Internet such as this one where it is asked to enter this on the console:
The Witcher 3 Brothers In Arms Novigrad Roach
I did it, but it doesn't change anything.
So as you can see, I finished all the secondary quests and to get on the boat I need to finish Brothers in Arms first.
When I talk to Triss, I have no quest options.
What should I do?
After this I tried to fast travel to Skellige, save and reload the game. But it doesn't change anything.
I also tried this:

This is a common issue when fast traveling out of D's place. These console commands never worked for me, and they are the only resource you'll have to get Triss to finish up this quest
I never got this issue solved, it's been a bug without a proper fix for years. There's no reliable way to start this part of the quest. The good news is, is that you can just keep going with the main quest and the game will just continue. This is an optional quest that only affects one thing
