Grip of Madness - this is madness!

I wonder how much time ZOS needs to finish this bug, because since May 2014 they stated they will investigate and nothing done.
Just now I'm stucked in it and can't kill Mayor.
In ZOS Support I read now that we should have the Intimidating perk active to push this quest, and convince Mayor/Sheogorath instead of killing him, but... such text string isn't available before we enter the cathedral for final fight. It may be given somewhere before, but no idea in what part of this quest, since it seems this part is ending part. So such support's tip is useless.

The whole hour of questing is wasted due to final fight being bugged, what a shame

I'm having the same issue on Xbox One.

I am having the same issue. Had it five months ago on my main, and having it now on my new alt. The support ticket said they are not currently tracking any issues with this quest, and to log out to reset the instance. Did that... 3 times. Didn't help. Can't progress through main story without completing it. I'm thinking they need to step up their game on maintenance.

Yeah.....I killed the mayor, and now he is just laying on the floor and the quest says "Kill mayor Aulus"

I can't even talk to sheogorath who is standing at the back of the room.

Need a fix
