New Thieves Guild Quest Door Bugged

Vonnegut2506 · July 8

The door you are supposed to pick to enter the estate only allows one person at a time to interact with it. On PCNA we are all piled around the door like lemmings spamming E to try and continue the main part of Season 1. Did anyone bother to quality check this quest before you turned it live?

This is the worst thing I have ever experienced in any game

@ZOS_Kevin

Can someone fix this

It's so weird. I get a split second green flash of Tamlorin's boon but it's not long enough for the "E" to register. and actually get me through the door.

1st bottleneck of the new season, a gate that you have to pick the lock on. Catch is everyone is try to do it and it's only allowing 1 person at a time to do it

is it actually letting people in though? Because i havent seen anyone get in. Looks like its just bugged.

And this ^ is a wild thing to say.

I am seeing the odd person getting thru but not many.

themadlep · July 8

Can confirm this is happening on PS5 too. Large queue of people waiting, but only getting through one by one. I got one flash of green to use the lock, but not enough time for Tanlorin's auto-unlock. Even if people are using it one by one, it still shouldn't take so long to clear the queue, lockpicking isn't that slow. So I don't know what else is afoot there.
Guess I'll try another day.

Ditto. Three or four have gotten through in the 20 minutes I've been at the gate, but more and more people keep arriving.

clacker · July 8

@ZOS_Amy any chance someone can take a look at this issue? it's kind of breaks the season if you can not get thru the door.

theskymoves · July 8

On PC/NA.

Pretty much the same on EU/PC

majulook · July 8

I am surprised its bugged, as it really not that many players at that location considering this is a MMO.

sshogrin · July 8

Lots of people having issues trying to get the lock pick opening screen.
You get the Tamlorin thing for a split second, but not long enough to actually interact.
This is really bad....thanks M$ and XBox for screwing this all up.

@ZOS_Kevin
This needs to be addressed ASAP!

There are two hitboxes overlapping. If you hover over the door you might eventually find the right one which says „unlock“. You‘re supposed to unlock before using the door.

i get why you would think this, and it did work for me, but i think its more likely that we are just getting the unlock prompt after the last person unlocked the gate and went through. And then it disappears after the first person spamming gets it and starts to lockpick.

But i wasnt going to wait around to test this theory, i just went through the second i saw unlock. They have a massive line on PC NA trying to organize it, but stuff like that rarely works in an online game.

jjjozo · July 8

PC-EU about 50 people permanently

How this gets on live?

AcadianPaladin · July 8

PC NA.I got to that part of the quest and saw a huge queue. After a few minutes I picked up enough on chat to sort of get what the problem is. I also noticed the line had not moved in a couple minutes that I could tell.

*sigh* give up and try another day. Perhaps a few days in, things will get less hectic or perhaps a patch to improve it.

DP99 · July 8

Yeah, I'm on PC NA, I just gave up and went on to do some of the weekly stuff. I'll try again later..

Goregram1 · July 8

At least the dumb Ida department didn't get laid off. lol

athena9205 · July 9

ahh Quen said to pick the lock and go up. Too many thieves with too many picks. those guards are bound to see us all and come get us lol.

RedDragon1313 · July 9

got about 6 fast flashes BUT never got in
then jumped into a group and still didn't make it in someone from group did -- said teleport to him so did BUT then says exit the estate so I did then I deleted the quest will try again later --

mattaeus01b16_ESO · July 9

Was booted for spamming twice while trying to click the lock (once I found it).
its hidden behind the quest icon and I only got a glimps of it here and there.

This needs to be fixed.

I had to log on at like 2 am and there were still tons of people camping that damn lockbox.

nalline96 · July 9

I don't know if anyone has said this, but there is a workaround: join a group, and then it should work. Only one person can interact with the gate, and it has a 30-second timer that resets. Hopefully this helps

MysticalMoon346 · July 9

Also on Xbox na and eu as well.

athena9205 · July 9

wont let me in

taiyoukei · July 9

This may sound crazy, but the lock is located in Reaper's March near Willowgrove, just north of Willowgrove Cavern near a tree for some reason. That's how I managed to get in.

AaronGuilder · July 9

Do you an exact location?

AaronGuilder · July 9

Well I'll be jiggered, make sure you have the lock quest enabled, tree is approx 98M north, the quest indicator shows the direction!!!
