Kingami626 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Ok I have been researching a solution like crazy for my problem. I know this thread is old but it definitely pertains to my issue. I'm having the ethereal miraak bug, but I'm not overdamaging him, I have disabled the unofficial patches too (had them on in the correct order too). Miraak is even the one absorbing the first soul and he returns to full health but stays invincible, I don't really even understand why this problem is occurring as my last character from two months ago Had no issues, but now after trying every known fix I'm at my wits end......

Relativelybest Posted July 14, 2014 Author Share Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) I wish someone would just make a mod that lets you kill the guy without all the scripted stuff. There seems to be so many variations on this bug that trying to find a working fix gets kinda maddening.

dantex8 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Best workaround: Kill all 3 dragons before you even attack Miraak. This way, Miraak SHOULD absorb the dragon souls without needing him to into scripts to absorb them i.e going Ethereal Once all 3 dragons are dead and absorbed and you've dealt enough damage to Miraak, Hem. Mora SHOULD appear at the center and the scene should occur. Accomplished this with the Unofficial patches installed and animations modded.

Insecure5082 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 (edited) Ok I have been researching a solution like crazy for my problem. I know this thread is old but it definitely pertains to my issue. I'm having the ethereal miraak bug, but I'm not overdamaging him, I have disabled the unofficial patches too (had them on in the correct order too). Miraak is even the one absorbing the first soul and he returns to full health but stays invincible, I don't really even understand why this problem is occurring as my last character from two months ago Had no issues, but now after trying every known fix I'm at my wits end...... I had the exact same problem. I just wanted to post what I did to fix it in case anyone else has the same issue. Problem: What happened was after kicking Miraak's butt he goes ethereal in the middle, his health goes back to full, and he stays there. As for the dragons only 2 dragons can be seen. The missing one is Kruziikrel. He's the problem. Solution: 1. Use dragonrend on Sahrotaar and kill him near Miraak for him to absorb the soul.2. Push the tilde key ` to bring up the console3. Use tcl to turn off colision4. Use player.setav speedmult 500 to give yourself a speed boost5. Run over to the dragon still flying in the sky, open the console again, click him and then type disable and hit enter. He should disappear. 6. Run way back over to the place you first met Sahrotaar. Kruziikrel should be lying dead there. 7. Run back to the book that takes you to the previous chapter of the dungeon and read it to go back. 8. Then click the book again to go back to the area you were just in. Kruziikrel should be warped to where Miraak is.9. Run back to where Miraak is and open the console, click Kruziikrel and type resurrect and hit enter.10. If Miraak doesn't kill Kruziikrel then kill him yourself. This should allow Miraak to absorb the last soul he needs and continue the fight. If it doesn't work try letting him absorb the dragon you disabled. I couldn't because he was bugged and wouldn't respond to anything I did to him so I disabled him. Edited August 7, 2014 by Insecure5082 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueReverie Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 For me, I absorb the dragon souls, not him. Once I damage him to where he turns ethereal and goes to the center, and there is the first dragon that lands and its soul goes to me. No matter what I do I always absorb the souls of the dead dragons. I have the "Dragonsoul Fix" (http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/31685/?) mod installed and the unofficial skyrim patches. Can anyone help me out? Is there a fix for this glitch yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadblood01 Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 remove that dragonsoul fix mod why are you using it anyway unofficial patches fixes the damm issue with dragonsouls and that mod is surely bringing the bug back into your game remove it and try again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nabnab1305 Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 I found a solution. However, you have to skip the bossfight and the dialogue :( Use the console to type setstage DLC2MQ06 550. Miraak will disappear, quest will finish, black book will rise up. ONLY USE IT ONCE MIRAAK IS STUCK IN THE CENTER IN ETHEREAL FORM, OR ELSE NOTHING HAPPENS AND MIRAAK JUST STANDS THERE. p.s. If the exit does not appear, use the command coc whiterun to return to Tamriel, then use additem and addspell or addshout to add any rewards to the quest you were not able to get. p.p.s. I tried removing all my mods, but that did not fix it. But, plot twist, I enabled my mods again, and I slightly altered the load order accidentally while doing this, and everything went back to normal. So, it is a conflicting mod, but do not disable it, redo load order. I have no idea what caused it. So in conclusion, I spent time lookign for a fix, found a fix, but in the process of trying failed fixes, it fixed itself. Not sure if the universe hates me or loves me.

Relativelybest Posted June 10, 2015 Author Share Posted June 10, 2015 So anyway, I'm playing through the whole game again with a new character, and this time Miraak does show up to steal my dragon souls. I'm hoping this means I can actually kill him this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angshuman Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Best solution: bring up the console.....click on miraak....write "resethealth"....it will bring miraak back from his freeze state and you can fight with him again till the quest finishes.....works perfectly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
