electrino Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 I'ma slowpoke but when I've been completing Dawnguard, the same bug happened with me, i found better solution for this problem - type player.addperk 79af5 in the console, it'll give you a blood harvesting perk.

Moraevik Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 I think I've done this quest six times and it only worked correctly the first time. This is with variously patched versions of the game, so I doubt that this bug, which is a killer, will ever get fixed. I actually wound up creating a batch file "fixextractor.txt" to run the console command electrino mentioned and I just routinely run it right after I get the extractor.

sinnerman69 Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) from uespwiki Daedric Prince of the Unknown To continue past this point, you must be level 15 or higher. If you aren't level 15 yet, giving Septimus the Lexicon will result in him dismissing you; then, you must wait until a courier delivers a letter from him to continue. Once you have returned to the outpost, talk to Septimus again. He'll read the Lexicon and tell you he searched for it with the help of the Daedric Prince of Knowledge, Hermaeus Mora. He tells you to go harvest the blood of the elves. Head for the outside of the cave. You will see a Wretched Abyss that has the talk option. Talk to the abyss, and you will learn that the voice coming from the abyss is that of Hermaeus Mora. He claims that Septimus is a good follower, but that his mind has corrupted him and he has thus outlived his usefulness. Hermaeus Mora wishes for you to speak with him again after you have completed Septimus's task. Did you talk to the Wretched Abyss before leaving and agree to serve him?
