Cyrodiil's Delves ate my Character

ArchMikem

All I want is that stupid Explorer title, lol.

The run down. I'm doing the Delves, and my latest destination is Cracked Wood Cave. Not my first time being there so I remember there's a secondary entrance north of the map icon, that giant crater hole in the ground? Thought that'd shave off some travel time for me, so I get there, try to finesse my way down, and I fall into the black screen shown above. My character can still move around in whatever space it's stuck in, jump, use abilities, but that's it.

That's fine, I'll just go into "Help" and click "Get me Unstuck". Thing is I already had to use it earlier tonight when trying to use the little whirlpool thing to get to the Boss in Quickwater Cave, same thing happened there too, except for the black screen. In that cave the game loaded me into the top of the falling water hole you're supposed to drop down into the main chamber, but I was standing on an invisible floor with nowhere to go.

So then the game wouldn't let me use the Get me Unstuck feature again. You can't recall to the Wayshrine. You can't travel to another player that's in your guild. And when I logged out and logged back in, it just put me right back into that pitch black cage again.

Debating if I should submit a ticket asking for my Char to be moved, or just wait until tomorrow and try again.

That's really too bad. I recall they fixed that twice recently.

Any way to attract a mob to you or a player and get yourself killed? Maybe ask a guildie from another faction to come in and mercykill you.

The easiest way to escape Cyro is to go into a another campaign, works for me every time.

I hadn't tried that before, never thought of entering another Campaign while already being in one.

If you are in your main campaign, just go into a guest campaign and vice versa. The only thing required is that you should not be in combat. I am sure this will work for you buddy and good luck.

Yeah, I thought they disabled the crater entrance to stop this from happening?

At least you're in direct contact with the Void and can make the Silken Ring really jealous. Hail Sithis!

This also opens another question. Why is there a 1 hour cooldown on the Unstuck feature? Did people used to abuse that in some way before?

IIRC, there are those who would rather suicide than give you a kill.

I thought they flooded that entrance ? @ZOS_GinaBruno

I logged back in today and sure enough, still stuck in the black screen. So now that I could get unstuck I went back to the Delve (with my waypoint firmly on the legit entrance this time), but stopped by the hole in the ground to provide photo evidence.



And there it is, in all it's deceivingly wide open glory.

They did, but then they posted a new note that said they'd reopened it since they fixed it. Except, apparently not. It's one of the nicest surprise hidden gems and always on my list when I give carebears a tour of Cyrodiil.

I happened to be there yesterday and checked to see if I could see your legs poking in through the ceiling, Arch. I hope you got out ok.

@runagate How many times have we seen the same thing fixed over the past, almost 3 years?

Yeah, death gating in the IC to avoid losing Tel Var stones to another player. Back when you lost 100% to players, and 10% or 20% to NPCs. People were using /stuck to death gate back to their base and stash their stones.
