To finish all of the Bleackrock Isle quests, Geilund is the last person I need to find. He is connected to Halmaera's House questline which I can not find. Its still blacked out on my map and the NPC thats supposed to have the quest is not there. Am I too late or something?

    If you evacuated the island -it is too late cos all that stay behind are killed

    If you still gathering folks on island - for Geilund, go to that house, talk to Halmaera. She give you a quest. If you already have that quest -you need to use a whistle to sumon a dog and later folow him to place where Geilund is

    I had already evacuated. I came back later though at lvl 14 or so and still found 3 more people. Geilund is the last one I need and Halmaera wont spawn.

    Probably, that's the one who is considered "killed" :/

    Why wouldn't you save them all in the first place anyway? It's logical that if you failed to save people - they should be dead. Even login-screen tip states there are things you can't undo without reseting the quest (and you did the quest already so no idea if you can reset it).

    Try ask a GM.

    Mostly because I just started playing the game and didnt really know what i was doing. I didnt really know the quests were connected like that. Kind of ridiculous that some day ill be like 99% complete because of that haha..

    But there is no choice where the text is red. If it is an important and non-reversable choice there should be. How do you get help from a GM anyway?

    If they made an achievement for it then it shouldn't be blocked.

    I didnt save them all because Halmaera was not even spawned at her house when i was doing the Bleakrock quests. I reloaded UI. I exited game and relogged entirely and she just was not there. So i proceeded to finish Bleakrock and evacuate. Note all you have to do is find the person and get them to return home. All of this forum crap just because Halmaera is likely 'dead' or 'bugged' or whatever, seems ridiculous to me.

    I agree entirely on this, achievements that cannot be obtained later or at any point in the game should not be achievements, or reclassified to something similar with what World of Warcraft does as a 'Feat of Strenght' idea. This achievement is
    http://esohead.com/achievements/194-find-bleakrocks-missing-people. And as of right now is obtainable/not obtainable depending on weather or not Halmaera likes to play games with players.

    There's a pretty big hint when you go to complete the quest and it says "Evacuate Early", meaning you didn't finish what you were supposed to. =)

    Indeed. I am having the same problem. I left the Bleackrock early and went to Bal Foyen because i didnt sure what i was doing in the early game of course. But now i see there is just one missing people in Bleackrock. And he is Geilund. Ive already checked Halmaera's house and she isnt there. I ve tried to talk with GM for last 2 weeks but it didnt for yet. Now im V2 and i finished all the quests in the Ebonheart Pact except this one. There should be a way.

    Yes, Halmaera will not spawn. The claim that the people are killed and unsavable is BS because I came back and saved a hunter. Halmaera's house seems to be in the town zone that changes into a battlefield.

    With the number of quests, and the different paths you can take, I'm pretty sure that no one will even get close to 99% complete on the quests.

    Why is that? Bleakrock is the only quest achievement I have been unable to do so far, I am in the Rift now and everything else is achieved. Mother would be so proud.

    I too, missed rescuing Geilund. I realize that the quest said evacuate early, but I was a total newb and did not think to look at the achievements tab to see that the quest line was tied to it. I just thought it would, you know, evacuate the remaining people or what not and I would be able to finish my quests. If I knew it was going to completely ruin my chances at getting the achievement, I would have, obviously, not done that.

    Any chance we can get some sort of fix?

    My character made a choice, and I am good with that. It will not break the game for me or anything, it's just annoying. I went back, at like, level 12 or something, after I actually looked at the achievement window and saw that it was not complete. Well, too little too late.
