Prophet Not Appearing?
Nathire
✭✭
I recently created a new AD character and the prophet has yet to appear to start the main quest. Am I missing something simple? As of now, I'm level 11/12, have checked Vulkhel Guard and Khenarthi's Roost but cannot find him anywhere. The Harborage is still locked to me.

Seravi✭✭✭✭✭Sounds like a bug. As soon as your turned level five he should have appeared so you could interact with him. He should have been around the shore area by the cooking area and small vendor shacks.1 -
Nathire✭✭Thank you for the response, Seravi. That was my understanding as well. I recently just started playing again and have very little experience with AD anything so I wasn't quite sure if I was doing anything wrong.
He is currently not there, but I'm not giving up just yet.0 -
Gesiah✭✭I'm having the same problem, and I wonder if you're having the other problem I'm having as well.
I was dealing with no Prophet when all of the sudden I noticed I didn't even have the soul magic skill line! I'm guessing this has something to do with skipping the tutorial, in both cases.
I've submitted multiple support tickets and received no response.2 -
Nathire✭✭I, too, skipped the tutorial and didn't even notice the lack of the Soul Magic skill tree, but I do not have it either. I hate saying this, but I'm glad it's not just me. =P1
-
Seravi✭✭✭✭✭I know there are major issues with Greenshade as in nothing there works at all, no npcs move etc. I wonder if this is something that is AD wide and not just one zone?0

No worries on that! I'm glad it's not just me, too. The more people have this the less likely the "fix" is them just saying to start a new character and go through the tutorial.1 -
Gesiah✭✭I have to say, it's frustrating to see all of the green responses in this forum but none in this thread. It'd be nice just to get an acknowledgement that the issue has been seen.0
-
thatotherguy2789_ESOSoul ShrivenI am lvl 10 and I really don't want to have to remake my character again... Any fix for this?0
-
Nathire✭✭I have to agree. Even an acknowledgment of "yeah we know" would be sufficient. I feel like there are responses to far more trivial concerns.2
-
Rebbon✭Yep, having the same issue. Just recently came back and started leveling up a Nightblade, skipped the tutorial, no skill line, no prophet. Nothing.
My theory is that it has to do something with the new Wailing prison intro, I'm almost certain. I sent a ticket almost two days ago now, still no response either...
Zenimax, please fix this."Kill one man, and you are a murderer. Kill millions of men, and you are a conqueror. Kill them all, and you are a god." - Jean Rostand1 -
thatotherguy2789_ESOSoul ShrivenI just remade my character... easier to get to lvl 10, rather than wait.0
-
Zenimax, this is ridiculous. I really don't want to remake my entire character. Please fix this.2

Kragorn✭✭✭✭✭On the theory about AD, I created a new AD character Saturday (EU) and had no problems encountering the Prophet as I was about to leave the boat you wake up on; I hit level 5 after talking to the Prophet on the boat after waking up before going up on deck.Edited by Kragorn on March 9, 2015 3:19PM0 -
Gesiah✭✭I'm almost positive that this happens because you skip the tutorial.
The crazy thing is this is a big bug that will affect new characters. New characters like the ones that will be made when the game goes B2P. So basically they're ignoring a bug that's going to affect their new revenue stream and turn people off of the game!0 -
Kragorn✭✭✭✭✭
Not in my case, I played the intro as it was the first character I have created since 1.6 landed .. or is that crashed .. in Tamriel.I'm almost positive that this happens because you skip the tutorial.
Wut?You can't skip the tutorial with a completely new character ...
Of course you can, you get the option every time you create a new character after the first .. the OP said new character (s)he didn't say it was a new account.

ZOS_GinaBrunoCommunity ManagerHey guys, apologies for the delay. We're investigating this issue now and will give you an update as soon as we can.1 -
prokaryotikSoul ShrivenGinaBruno,
Thanks for the reply. Sent a ticket in 3-4 days ago and still no reply! I want to start my epic quest!

You and me both! I'm just grateful they finally said something about this, otherwise I would've uninstalled."Kill one man, and you are a murderer. Kill millions of men, and you are a conqueror. Kill them all, and you are a god." - Jean Rostand0 -

✭✭In the meantime feel free to progress in your alliance zones, since the main quest will now scale with character level. I recently started several characters and really enjoyed doing all the main quests in a row after I hit VR1 rather than waiting hours/days between each step.

ZOS_GinaBrunoCommunity ManagerCan you guys describe exactly what happened when you ran into this issue? Some things that would help to know include:
- Did you create a new character before or after Update 6 went live?
- Did you skip the tutorial or play through the entire thing?
- What alliance do you belong to?

1. I created a new one after the update.
2. I skipped it, like I've done before the patch with no issues.
3. Ebonheart Pact.
This, as I said, has never happened before. I noticed after I created my new character and skipped the tutorial that I had no Soul Magic skill line, since I did not see anyone else with that issue at the time I assumed it was some major change in the main quests and that it would appear and solve itself eventually. Turns out I was wrong..."Kill one man, and you are a murderer. Kill millions of men, and you are a conqueror. Kill them all, and you are a god." - Jean Rostand0 -

Thanks for letting me know, dude! I was worried about that very thing as well, but it seems like I'm all good then. "Kill one man, and you are a murderer. Kill millions of men, and you are a conqueror. Kill them all, and you are a god." - Jean Rostand0 -

1) Directly AFTER update 6
2) Skipped tutorial
3) Daggerfall Covenant0 -
ZOS_GinaBrunoCommunity ManagerThanks guys! We actually were just able to repro this internally (turns out it doesn't happen to everyone every time). We'll work on fixing this for an upcoming patch.5

Good news!
Would that be next week then? Or is there any chance of a GM spawning the prophet for me?

This makes me very happy! I really like my toon and have done too much research to want to start over!0
