Stuck on mainline story quest for two days... God of Schemes still broken.

Vlas

I need a manual advance or reset of this quest.

Cannot quit the quest due to mainline story quest.
Tried log off/on
Tried leaving it for hours/coming back.

I cannot advance until this is resolved.

ZOS, really need you to look into this... getting frustrated and havent had a resolution.

All these god damn unrelated posts on these forums are burying actual issues like this, please clean up the forums as well.

Vlas

Do I need to follow the forum narrative of Sensationalism Requires Immediate Assistance or else I will rain an ungodly heap of tears upon your souls, or can I get a response/fix?

Bump~

notnicecream

same happened to me but the marker is above the old guy in harborage. can't talk to him. I've been v1 for almost a week now with nearly nothing to do.

Molag Bal is indeed broken for me as well. He needs to be reset, fixed, however it gets done it needs to be addressed. Just like the portals and the groundskeeper before it.

Neo

I can't believe this is still broken, even after maintenance. I'm stuck at talking to the survivors aswell.

Vlas

Yeah, I was told that a patch would fix it... but most dont release patches on Fridays unless they are ready to work the weekend.

These guys dont care.

WtF no response at all here??

ZOS ( the studio) acknowledged this to Vlas in the major issue log thread. But I'm not defending them here; it is taking way too long to fix quest issues in the game, and support communication is not very good.

Gossi finally sees the light?

O.O

Well, it's 50/50. Support for MMOs on launch is, unfortunately, often terrible. WoW dived off a server cliff and Guild Wars 2 didn't even have a support forum on launch. So when people compare it to support with those games now, it's a world away.

What annoys me, frankly, is that ZOS has been working on this game for almost 7 years now, and been in outside beta for a long time, and it's a premium MMO with premium monthly fee. But they haven't got some of the basics right with how to handle support. The server infrastructure itself is actually pretty good (it has handled the load pretty well, and hasn't gone off a cliff since launch) and I like the game a lot. Put simply, what's going to cost this game subscriptions (and so revenue) is this:

Support.
Support.
Support.

Imwacko

I'm still stuck on this quest..

Expli

Same here, cant talk to the survivors.

It's awesome sitting at Veteran 1 with nothing to progress..

Avaglaor

Ive been able to reset the quest but he just sat there at 0 health again after I beat him down, cant "vanquish" him or advance at all.

Try leaving the area by getting into a party, and make sure that the other party member is in an area you have access to, for example, the starting city of your alliance, and just get into the party window and teleport to player, worked twice for my buddy less than an hour ago... I should know, I was the one he teleported to.

After leaving the area, see if abandoning the quest and grabbing it again will help.

My experience with the molag bal quest was pretty lame, I'm re-doing the quest right now but seriously. First, I got his hp to 0 but nothing happened
Then I fell through the map and tried /stuck and relogging, in the end I had to forcefully close the game
Once I relogged (after like 3 failed attempts) I got the whole scene with Molag Bal and the "sacrifice of courage" thingy again, but then Molag Bal was just standing there with full hp next to me, and I couldn't attack him or get him to attack me
So that's it, and now I'm redoing the whole thing after teleporting out of Coldharbour and hope it'll work.

Same here, i have done it 4 times already, it bugs when Molag is at 0 HP.
No veteran zones, no side quests, no exploration. Just cyrodiil and V1 dungeons until they fix this...

PS: One way to leave the place is to enter Cyrodiil from "L" menu and then you the shrine from there to any map.

I have this exact same problem for over a week now. All I can do is grind dailies in Cryodiil and V1 dungeons.

How did you get into V1 dungeons?

Add me to the list.

Its been 2 days for me so far, so not as bad as others.
However my tolerance for this kind of thing has been worn down to nothing by other MMO's sadly, so due to this and many other unrelated reasons, I have already cancelled my sub and will be looking for a refund on the box price.

Shame. It had a lot of promise.
I'm sure I will pick it up again in several months.

Ffolks

Same issue as the OP. Lyris has the quest icon but I cannot interact with her.

gperinazzoub17_ESO

Ask for a refund. They're not manually fixing this (they claim not being able to). Otherwise you'll be stuck for at least another week (support told me they only apply patches on scheduled maintenance days), if they fix it by the next patch.

Uniquex

If they fix it not in this week i ask for a refund there is no other way thats just ***

escape1979uk

Its a Public Holiday on Friday and Monday, so I wouldn't hold my breath for a patch this weekend.

Sidney

Bah, can you put a spoiler tag on this please

Bifista

Same here I can't talk to Varen to end the quest. It's been 6 or 7 days that I'm stuck in my progression,
