I think that I cannot be fixed, same thing happened to me, in quest "boethiah's calling", when I killed the whole clan there, and manage to invoke Boethiah, but quest didn't finished, I must admit there are musch bugs in the quest's for sure...
AFter completing The Silence Has Been Broken, and talking to delvin in riften and going back to astrid, and after the dialogue, i didnt receive the next quest to kill vittoria in solitude. And talking to astrid again doesnt help, and neither does loading previous saves. After the dialogue the game just tells me that The Silence Has Been Broken is completed, and thats all. Anyone else have this bug?
I had all kinds of issues with the DB quest lines. I finally gave up and started over. 2nd time through for my thief, and his sneak isn't going up as I'd hoped. My weapons stink and I switched to Leather Armor. I'm going back to glass armor, even though it looks terrible for a thief/Rogue character. It just seemed to work better.
No i think you have broken the quest because it happened to me to when i just went ahead and revealed sibbie's plan to steal frost to the maven the quest just got stuck in active quests no more going on . and in that boethia's quest you need those cultists because you should fight them to prove your worth to her . i think you have done sth that has broken the quest . because i got to the end of the dark brotherhood's quests.(I haven't used patches)
