	 after turning in firehawk, if you open quest log and look at any unpicked or unfinished quest that scales with sanctuary, it will cause sanctuary to scale and lock to your level, which means you won't be able to buy a vladof
	 this can happen when doing a dialog skips in valley and there are 2 things you have to do to prevent it:
