Thieves Guild Quest - Dampened Spirits (At least I'm pretty sure)

When I complete "Loud and Clear" the next quest will not automatically initiate. Talking to Maven does not start anything either.

This is the exact problem I'm having.

I'm having a problem with the main quest. The The Horn of Jurgen Windcaller. When i give the main greybeard(I forget his name) the horn he tells me to follow him but he just stands there. I go inside to talk to the other guy, but all he does is just stand there and bow his head. So i can't learn the final phrase to the shout or progress through the main quest. Please Bethesda fix this, your last update did not do anything. It would be a real shame for me to have to return such a fun game because of the quest glitches.

I have a main quest glitch! :swear:

I have a lot of play time. I completed the murderers guild and have a lvl 19 character. I was extremely disapointed when during the quest Seasons Unending I tried to talk to ulfic and he says to talk to his lackey who I took a quest from to join the stormcloaks. (a decision I now regret knowing i could very easily have to start over) Then i decided I would complete the joining the stormcloaks quest and I still had the same results of Ulfic saying talk to (insert name of lackey here) and his lackey says "I can't believe you talked Ulfric into that peace meeting" (don't know exactly what he says). I have tried everything, I dont have old saves to go back to, I tried killing a stormcloak soldier to get rid of the quest but that did'nt work, and i tried attacking the jarl and his lackeys themselves! Please fix this Bethesda, I dont think I could get myself to restart from the beggining. :cookie:

misc quest- i have to go to lost knife cavern and kill a bandit leader, but the game randomly freezes when i get into a fight in there. only happens there. had no other issues yet.

A side note: people should try clearing there cache on the 360, or there temp files on pc. it used to work wonders on oblivion for glitched doors and quests. may fix your issues.

Taking care of business quest. Brynjolf doesnt stop distracting the crowd. Im supposed to meet him in the ragged flaggen but he just stays up top in his market stall. This quest has kinda broken Riften because almost everyone in Riften has surrounded Brynjolf and will stay there 24/7.

I am having the same problem.

Quest: Bleak Falls Barrows
Problem: I have the Dragonstone but Farengar won't take it. I did the dragon claw quest and also picked up the dragonstone before Farengar asked me to get it. I talked with the Jarl and he said that Farengar may have a project for me. Farengar only responds by saying "Hmm? What? Project? You think you could help me? I really don't think so" and my only choice is to say "Never mind I'll wait for Jarl Bolgruuf"

I started the quest to become part of the storm cloaks but never finished it. In the main story line quest i have to talk to Ulfric but he tells me to finish the quest to become a storm cloak so i killed the wraith but still cant finish either quest

THIS! my exact problem. the jarl and his buddy just tell me to talk to the other one. cant do anything with the main quest now.

I am having the same problem.

THIS IS A SOLUTION (KINDA) TO THE TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS / BRYINOLF STUCK IN MARKETPLACE GLITCH!!!!

I just found a way to fix this. But I'm not sure if it will work for everyone. I was doing my Dark Brotherhood story line, and I got to the point where I needed to go down to the the ragged flagon to speak to delvin mallory. After I was all done with him, I talked to the bartender guy and asked him about the thieves guild. THEN when I turned around to look at the door. there was brynjolf just standing right in front of it. NOW PAY ATTENTION HERE. he tends to go back through the door and to the market place so you have to be quick!!! sprint or whirlwind shout to him and quickly press 'A' on him. WARNING. you should definitely save before you talk to delvin mallory. just so you can get perfect timing.

PS. I listen to all of the npc's conversations all the way through. ALSO, he still goes back to the marketplace, so Im not sure if that is going to be a problem in the near future. probably is though.

The Volunruud quest.

I went through Volunruud once, after I got the sword and axe and got through that door I left because I couldn't beat the boss guy in there. I went back for the quest later on after everything had respawned and when I tried putting the sword and axe in the door, it said I lack the required item. I'm sure I have the right items. I've tried exiting and reentering the dungeon as well.

I'm having the same problem. I figured the quest would be easy since I got it early on. Then, I went back in when I got to a higher level and suddenly the door was locked and the quest Silenced Tongues disappeared from my main quest list and went back down to being misc quest. When I came back the door wont open even when i have the ceremonial ax, sword, helm, and even the note that starts the quest.

Bug at the very start of "First Lessons":

I received the First Lessons quest and started by "Reporting to Mirabelle Ervine". I told her I was told to come see her and that I was ready to look around. She started by giving a short lecture about the courtyard or some such and then took me to the Hall of Attainment to show me my room. After we left the room is where the bug occured. We end up back out in the courtyard and just then a dragon attacks. All the mages in the courtyard (including Mirabelle) attack and slay the dragon. At this point, Mirabelle will not tell me the next step in the quest and just says we can talk when she is done showing me around. She walks off and heads back to the Hall of Attainment where she promptly goes upstairs and sits.

Sadly I had to go back 35 or 40 minutes in my saves to fix this and by killing the dragon before I asked her to show me around was able to move ahead in the quest.

I am fortunate not to have these bugs, but I have had one where a dragon is unkillable. He was guarding a word wall, and I took the word and ran off. I came back later and killed him several times. He won't fight me, he won't fly, and he won't DIE. As soon as his health reaches zero, the bar vanishes, but he won't die, nothing else will attack him. The game treats it as being both dead and alive. It's incredibly annoying, as I need the souls.

Someone asked me get Invocation of Azura, (don't remember who) i already had it (area cleared for a bounty). I have the book, can't remove/sell it cause it is a quest item.

But the quest is still pointing to the empty chest I got it from...

I don't know if that happened because of a madman quest (Pelagius wing w/ Pelagius the Mad) in Solitude but when I completed it - my quest for Thieves Guild somehow reset to last state.
Objective is "Meet Karliah at the Ragged Flagon" but she wasn't standing there, rather than that I found her (through the map) standing in Winterhold.

Now, thanks to savegame I made before madman's quest, when I loaded that one up - Karliah was waiting for me in Ragged Flagon.

How I found that Pelagius quest would glitch other quests? Well, after I completed it I've seen a dozen of messages about other active quests like they became active once again.
Since you can not access your inventory I guess it just resets everything, gives you your items and reset all quests altogether.

The quest is given by Dervenin in Solitude, named "The Mind of Madness"

So, be careful with that one.

Can't get the next quest after completing revealing the unseen. Found the arch-mage dead in the courtyard and no one notices and I do not receive the next quest....

» Wed May 16, 2012 11:13 pm

The very first quest there was - in the carts on the way to the execution. Events are apparently based on head placement. I was watching the crowd and buildings as the guys were talking. Apparently your head was supposed to be looking at the guys faces. The wagons would stop against the wall and just sit there. 10 minutes I sat there waiting for someone to do something before started the game all over again. Took about four tries before I realized what was going on and started waving the control stick around just so they would keep talking.

So many bugged quests - I don't even know where to start.

Talking to the Jarl for the first time - I had to enter and exit the room to kick in the next phase of dialog. Actors would move to me and just stop. No one would progress with their lines.

The Companions series of quests I am on now - same stuff. Right now I am in the bottom of a dungeon and Farkas is just standing there. I go into the lever room, and get stuck - apparently something is supposed to happen. Farkas walks up to me and just stands there. I've learned to keep a nice swath of saves to fall back on. I'm going to leave him there and move on to other stuff.

At this point I'm picking and choosing what to do based on how complex it is, so I don't break too much of the game. Like simple errand quests or exploration. Really wrecks the immersiveness. I was there for the midnight release - which I never ever do. Played almost non stop and let all types of business personal stuff lapse - and not I don't really even want to play. It's highly disappointing.

*edit*

The Companion Join quest - the old man wouldn't talk to Vilkas.
Vilkas wouldn't intro me to my rooms - just stand there.
Had to enter and exit the rooms multiple times just to kick on the next mission.

I'd get the white words on the screen and move on, but I did miss the entire scene. Missing out on good stuff here!

Right now I'm missing the things I didn't get done in Oblivion way more than I want to run around a pretty broken world.

I have exactly the same problem.

door is locked when leaving the dawnstar sanctuary during "The Cure for Madness" Quest line for the Brotherhood. Even after the Cicero exchange in the end of the sanctuary it is still locked with a stone wall. It says "To Skyrim" but it doesn't trigger.
