Escape from Coldharbour

FaelarBraegen

I created a character before Morrowind came out and didn't escape from Coldharbour, then I purchased Morrowind so I created a character for that and have been playing with the Morrowind character. I went back to play with my original character, as I found out that that character had my pledge of Mara as well as loads of treasure maps ... but now I cannot seem to leave Coldharbour.

I spoke to a hooded figure who told me to speak to a benefactor, then I was told I failed that quest. Some woman comes along and attacks the cell door, which remains shut but I am now able to leave. She crouches down beside a body and refuses to move, be hit or spoken to. I carry on along the passage to a room that has a door to a Forge, but I am unable to open it. I have clicked on everything possible, apparently there is supposed to be a table with weapons but it doesn't exist in my game.

What do I do to get out, AND keep my pledge of Mara and treasure maps?

Search the body next to Lyris Titanborn(the woman that let you out of the cell.)

FaelarBraegen

I have tried but I am unable to click on the body to search it, it doesn't even come up with an option to search it. The quest marker on the radar keeps on taking me back to the cell door.

Only thing I might suggest is to see if you can abandon the quest. Not sure if that will help. Otherwise, you might need to remake the character. Sorry

FaelarBraegen

I can't find an option to abandon quest. If I end up remaking a different character, I will lose my pledge and treasure maps ... so how could I keep them? I was hoping to get to a bank and deposit them into my Guild Bank.

mmogamerperson

If you had the mobile banker you could summon him. He wouldn't give access to the guild bank though.

FaelarBraegen

So I have lost the items for good?

Try to put in a ticket via the game. Support might be able to reset something for you.

FaelarBraegen

I have done as you suggested and sent in a ticket with my issue, I followed both pieces of advice they gave me and they have sent me back here again. Does anyone else have idea's on what could solve this problem for me?

If you are in a guild, travel to someone so you can leave the area. That is what I would do to get out of the cell.

FaelarBraegen

Unfortunately as it is the beginning of the game; the prologue even, it wont let me leave the area in any way other than to complete the quest.

Is there any other way to get the items I want to keep? I am thinking of just buying or finding them just to get out of this infuriating situation.

Ring of mara cannot be replaced like treasure maps can. I would say file a ticket and let it's course play out

One thing, if these Treasure Maps are the ones that came with the Adventurer Pack (or something like that), they drop just regular Blue items, no set items. What you get is decon fodder. You can also buy another Ring or Pledge of Mara from the Crown Store.

Now, I did just what you did this weekend, took an older character that had done the Morrowind starter, but not the original main quest. It worked just fine for me, which makes me curious as to why you failed the quest with the Hooded person.

Its a Main Quest, so I doubt you can abandon it. So, here are some things to try:

1 Wait a day and try again. The game will move you back to the beginning of the area you are in and then things might work again.
2. No joy, try the /Stuck Command
3. Try to port to somewhere or a another player
4. Open a ticket with ZOS and just leave the character there until they can move you or reset the quest.

Nestor : Waiting for the day did not work, however the Stuck command worked a treat! Thank you SO much, this was driving me insane and I am glad I can follow on with the quest now. Thank you again
