So, when you get into the Blood Pit, you have to interact with Charged and Uncharged Lucents.

The first one you pick up is a Charged one.

You can also find an Uncharged one, and charge it, and have 2 charged lucents in your inventory, while on the ground floor.

But if you do this, the game will not allow you to place one by the portal that leads to the balcony, so you can't take the other one to the upper floor and place either of the lucents in the TWO places you have to place them there.

I am currently stuck with no way to progress because I have 2 charged lucents, 2 places on the balcony to place them, but an inoperable portal on the floor so I can never reach the balcony.

    And it appears that if I drop this quest and restart it... I have to go a LOOOOOONG way back. All the way back to searching Jynd's Foundry and Zynoahz's Gaol.

    Not good enough, Zenimax. Not good enough.

    Same issue today with my, why or why can ZOS QA not submit a high bug for this and ZOS dev fix it in the next patch. Abandoning the quest requires about an hour of rework to do. This is really silly, since it is just a crystal quantity issue.

    May 7, 2025.. stuck here as well.. Zyno Gaol and Jynd's Foundry.. each has several items marked with white quest diamonds, but when only one was left in both locations, the game's pointer to both failed, and they had to be located via exhaustive search. Neither one turned up in the "main" sort of industry area central to both Zyno and Jynd... each had one left on the periphery of each one's blue map circle, somewhat hard to find. But, they are findable, just keep looking. Good luck.

    Greetings,

    We have gone ahead and closed this thread down since it is rather old. Please keep in mind that sometimes it is better to create a new topic, instead of replying in one that was posted a while ago.

    Thanks for your understanding.
