How to get the two “Statuette” quests done

the-witcher-3

I've already played The Witcher 3 three times, but I never could never do any of the two statuette quests: "The Nobleman Statuette" and "The Soldier Statuette" quests. Actually, I got the first one done, once but totally at random and I don't know how I did.

I must be doing something wrong in my quests order.

So in order for me to get both of those quests done, what quest line should I follow?

In my current playthrough, I'm currently at the second Novigrad quest, "Novigrad Deaming", I have the nobleman statuette, I go to Triss in her appartment, and she tells me to "decompress" it, but the only dialog option after that is "bye". I'm playing on PS4, if that has any kind of influence.

Side note, yes I know those quests are bugged if not done at the right moment, that's the goal of my question: at what moment do I need to do them to not get the bug?

Triss can help you with the statuette quests. It depends when you find them, but before the battle of Kaer Morhen you can talk with Triss and she will help.

To update - there is a time after battle of Kaer Morhen, when she is freely available to just talk and not in the middle of any quest. Also, you can talk with her after the main quest line ending, then she will help to decompress the statues.
