I have a quest that says speak to Astra on Voeld. This is my second playthrough and this time she has the quest star, but no way to speak to her. Can anyone assist? Thank you!

I have had similar problems with other NPCs it might be you aren't in the right spot to interact with them. I find there are two solutions the first is to keep moving until you find the right spot or save the game and then reload that specific save to reset the NPC. If neither of those works just continue to play and see if you can interact later.

Save and Load are saving me from this, at least for now. But you, for sure, tried it already. If traveling to Tempest and back to the location doesnt help, try continue through the story a bit.

Best regards, Eugene

No monsters, been to many other planets since, closed and loaded the game, and no interaction option based on location around Astra. Still just an orange circle with a white star and no way to progress it. Just frustrating, second playthrough so I know how it plays out basically.

You picked up the quest from Rojek in Techik, right? I had to fight off two waves of Kett before I could interact with her.

If the quest marker is on her, then he must have talked to him. Maybe the waves aren't spawning?

That's what I'm wondering. If that second drop ship doesn't show up I'm thinking the quest can't progress. I can't say for certain because all four times I've done that quest it's gone well, no glitches.

It did happen to me. The second wave would not show, so I had to reload and fight the first wave again.

Then that would do it. I wonder if that is what's happening here?

Spawning can be weird sometimes. I remember when I was getting PeeBee's Rem-Tech, Jaal would not put his rifle away and kept pointing it really high up. I moved the camera and saw an Observer had spawned at the top of the pillar, then Jaal killed it with one shot and finally holstered his gun. I also had Kett spawning in mid-air and not reachable, so I could not meet Drack on Eos.

Same here. Once with Kett spawning in the wall and several times with Remnant spawning in pillars. It's why I put points in Shockwave. It can either knock them loose, in the case of the Remnant, or kill them, which is what I had to do with the Kett in the walls. Or under the floor. Wherever they were.

DAI had issues like that too. Might be a Frostbite thing. The Templars and Mages would spawn randomly right in front of me and kill me.

All. The. Time. Happened to me in the Hissing Wastes all the freakin' time. Climb on a rock, look around, then run over a dune and there's a camp of Templars or Venatori just sitting there.

Yep! That same issue is back. I get Kett just popping up out of no where and one time an area where Remnant were supposed to be, they never showed, so the quest did not start until I reloaded. I also learned that saving in the Nomad causing infinite loading loops. Ugh... so long 4 hours of gameplay!

Broken Quest in Voeld? for me, it was that one where you need to deactivate a minefield around some rem stuff. I died for messing with the Mines (lols) and when i got back there i couldn't find any mine and the quest was still active...

I think it was more of a systems issue for me. The NPC would have stopped moving and they were facing into a wall or desk area and I had to get to a position that was close enough that the trigger button would activate.
