HaloHunter72 Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 (edited) So I'm currently at Northwind Summit with a Word Wall in front of me. I killed the dragon here, and proceeded to absorb the language from the Word Wall. I can hear chanting, letting me know it's nearby, but the Word Wall doesn't have any words lit. I've walked up close, behind, and all around the wall, and I'm still hearing chanting but no words lit up, so I'm thinking it's glitched. Any way to use the console to fix this and make the correct word light up so I can absorb the language? Note: My mistake, I misspelled "gliched" in the title, which should be "glitched", but you get the idea.

Happened to me too, but mine was in "Shearpoint", I think you either already somehow got the shout and now you can't get it again... try and get all the other shouts and see if you have them all, if you do then my theory is correct, if you don't, well... you'd probably have to use the console to add it manually.

Since it should never happen at "Shearpoint" due to double words, (can't tell as it would be spoiler) I'd say it is a bug and not something you already have. edit: since it somehow fits and I found it with my 2nd char: If you don't do the mainquest, there are no dragons. Not even at the dragon symbols on the minimap. Free words everywhere. Edited November 23, 2011 by saldu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaloHunter72 Posted November 24, 2011 Author Share Posted November 24, 2011 I'm really thinking it's bugged. I don't mind adding it manually, but I can't seem to find the console codes to add shouts (I used the "help" command, and got about 6 different entries, but none of them seemed to work).

HeirApparent Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 It's a bug with the game, and we're going to have to wait for a fix. It has been confirmed on all three systems that sometimes the word walls don't work, and sometimes souls aren't even taken from dragons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeschBesch Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 So, after attempting to start a new game in Skyrim again, I am now standing in front of Mount Anthor's word wall just to realize it's glitched (two different dragon texts layered above each other with burning sound still there). Why the hell did this bug has to appear NOW and not in the first place (i collected the word in my first save). Are there still none work-arounds known, besides using console stuff?

paloma78 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 @BeschBesch , I actually experienced the same issue at Mount Anthor aswel. And this is after I started a new game too.Killed the dragon absored its soul , walked up the stairs to reach the word wall, I can hear the chants as I approach but no glowing word ? I cannot learn the word? what gives . Anyone else experienced this issue after 1.5.xx patch @ mount anthor ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthmost Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I did. Killed Dova 5 mins ago, now staring at empty wall hearing chants... Guess console is my solution :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colvern001 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I'm glad? to see I'm not the only person with problems. I went into Volunruud to do the Dark Brotherhood quest; wne to kill the ghost and the wall was chanting but nothing lit up. left and came back when i got one of those "letters from a friend". The wall is still chanting, the wall has an arrow at it. I already have all of "Aura Whisper" so it's not giving it to me again. Went to talk to the graybeards, asked about more words and got "there is only silence" so now I have to worry about getting any more words honestly. Otherwise I have to use the console...
