xmacrosx Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Okay heres the deal. During the Touching the Sky quest, Knight Paladin Gelebor wont open the wayshrine. Once Gelebor says "let me show you" he turns and then proceeds to do nothing. He won't cast his spell to open the first wayshrine and I cannot continue the quest. I've searched google and the forums and this bug is listed and the fix is to reload a previous save and continue doing so until he opens the wayshrine. Well I've done this about 100 times now with no luck. I've tried uninstalling mods to see if a mod was making Gelebor not cast the spell, but no luck there either. I can do a console setstage quest blah blah, but that still wont open the shrine and won't give me the chalice, and would probably break the quest even more. I've tried using previous save from way earlier to and no luck. I'm at that point now where I just want to hang the game up for good. Can anyone please help me, I'm at my wits end here!!!!!!!!

schmcal Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 I wish I knew. I'm having the same problem and have tried everything that I can think of. Your instinct on using the console is correct. I tried to force my way through it with the console and it only compounded the problem. Those of us having this problem are a relative minority, so this bug isn't getting much attention. I reported it to the guys working on the unofficial dawnguard patch, but it hasn't been addressed yet and I have no idea when they might get around to it. I've had no luck figuring out where/how it's breaking, either. I haven't had the time to make heads or tails of Papyrus. The most I can offer you is the peace of mind that you're not suffering through this alone! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modder3434 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 are you using the 1.8 patch? If so revert to 1.7.7 and that might fix your issue. So far 1.8 does not play nice with Dawnguard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmcal Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 I finally found a way to force myself through the quest last night that involved liberal use of setstage, coc, and additem. It was highly unpleasant. I ended up having to skip the entirety of the vale (I'll revisit another time). Unfortunately, I've had this particular savegame lingering in this state for awhile and had this issue with the 1.7.7 version as well. It's only affecting THIS one character of mine. My other two characters I was able to get through the quest just fine for some reason... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the quest goes through I'm gonna guess its 1.8 or a corrupted save. BTW thanks for the replies. if a definate fix becomes available make sure you post it here so other people with this issue can find a solution.

I was using 1.7.7 when this problem occured and after countless tries of trying a previous save I put steam in online mode and installed 1.8, which didn't seem to make any difference at all.

OK, with the new game he activated the wayshrine so I'm guessing it was a corrupted save! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JProcks123 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I figured it out! If you don't have Serena with you, it doesn't work because she has a few lines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maturius Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Okay, i got stuck here a few times and noticed something. As he turns around he kind of 'blinks.' Therefore, my assumption is he is actually entering a different stage of the quest, therefore getting stuck. However, one way i fixed it was to use Unrelenting Force on him before this blink happened, therefore he doesn't get stuck, walks over to the portal and opens it.
