I said I tried clearing my cache already. Please read the whole thing. Thanks.
I'm sorry I should have worded that better.
How do you go about clearing the cache on 360? I would like to try and see if that would help my issue with Wulfgar.
Sorry again.

It's fine. Sorry if I sounded rude, I was pretty pissed.

Go to system settings on the dashboard>memory>select a device>press y>clear system cache.

It doesn't matter what device you select.

I just found my first quest glitch today.....It may only be for a misc quest but i fear it might not be the first. There is a small quest for the bard college where you go to find a flute for a women. In my earlier travels i happened to stumble across the flute before knowing it was used for a quest...now i cannot give the flute to her and the only dialog i can get from her are the random sayings NPCS blurt out randomly. Also another quest was to find a drum for the bards college...well needless to say i found it and got my reward, but when i checked my inventory it was still there...so now i have a 2.5lb flute and a 4lb drum i am FORCED to carry around for no reason... All i ask is that this is taken a look at because i have many quest items that i fear will be stuck in my inventory forever weighing me down...

My thoughts on a simple quick fix (until each quest can be sorted out) is to simply make ALL quests items weigh zero pounds this would at least allow people to move on to other things without worrying about quest items weighing them down

thnx.......


Same thing here I was pretty pissed to find that they did not take the items out of my territory like they were supposed to. Also I cannot get rid of the Elder Scroll which is weighing me down by 20. I am afraid to carry out anymore quest as this could lead to more items not being able to be dropped

Quest: In My Time Of Need
Location: Whiterun

This one is fairly minor, and it doesn't keep me from completing the quest, it just keeps me from completing it the way I want to. After I defeated the first dragon and returned to whiterun I overheard 2 redguards talking to a town guard about searching for a girl named Saadia. They asked me to help since the guard won't let them in and I agreed, and I found her at the inn. She tells me they're assassins and asks me to help her, and I say I will and she tells me that one of them was locked up in jail recently and I can go talk to him to find out where the head of the order is so I can kill him and save her. When I get to the jail in whiterun, I talk to the prisoner who says he'll help me out if I pay his way out of jail, so I go to talk to the head guard and I tell him I want to pay for the guy to get out of jail and he agrees and takes 100 gold from me, but nothing happens. He's still stuck in the jail cell, none of the guards have a conversation option to let him out. When i go to try and open the jail cell it says I need a key and when I talk to him he says the same thing over and over again. I can still go turn her in to the 2 redguards mentioned earlier and complete the quest, but I don't want to copmlete it that way. Other than that I've had no problems.

Under new management - I sold my guild armor early on to Tonilia, so now I can't pick up my Guild master armor from her as she keeps asking to upgrade the original guild armor. Not horribly game breaking, but it's a little disappointing after doing all those side jobs to get the guild back up and running, for nothing other than an amulet.

Main Quest- "Season Unending"

Started "Join the Stormcloaks" before starting this quest, unable to talk to Ulfric Stormcloak or his 2ic to comtinue either quest.

This one's happened to quite a few people:

Forbidden Legend - After defeating Sigdis Gauldurson in Geirmund's Hall his body disappears, so i can't take his part of the amulet. The marker locating the amulet points to an empty space in the water of the room where you fight him. Its really frustrating as everything else so far has been flawless, please make a fix for it so i can finish the quest!

I'm actually really surprised my problem hasn't been mentioned anywhere, unless I've missed it. If I have, sorry in advance.

I think the quest is called 'The Forsworn Conspiracy', basically you have to find evidence of Forsworn in the city of Markarth and when you do you have to kill somebody, then when it tells you to return to Eltrys in the Shrine of Talos but he is lying dead at the foot of the Statue of Talos and the quest marker is pointing to where he would have been standing. I have no idea what is wrong and it's really annoying me. I even tried getting into Cidnha Mine and killing the Forsworn king to see if that would help but I think its inaccessible. I love doing the guilds and other quests before the main one as you see more of the game and it's more fun. So if anyone is having the same problem and has any idea what can help me with this please let me know, if not I guess I'll have to wait for a patch...

I'm at work so forgive me for not being exact here...

At the mage college in Winterhold the guy in the library gives a quest to find a rare book in a dungeon. The first book he asked me to find was Hanging Gardens located in the dungeon where you retreive the Golden Claw for the shopkeeper in Riverrun. I picked that book up when I was on the Golden Claw quest so it was already in my bag when I got the rare book quest. When I speak to the quest giver, I'm not given an option to turn the book in. The quest shows up under the Misc quests lists and still says something like "Obtain a copy of Hanging Gardens." I also found a copy of the book while doing the Thieves guild quest where you have to tail the Argonian. Still no option to turn the book(s) in. I now have 2 sopies of Hanging Garden in my bag and they can't be dropped / sold because they are quest items. While not gamebraking by any means, it's still a minor annoyance.

Thieves Guild Additional Jobs (All)

This may be minor compared to some on here, but when I complete a job for either vex or devlin and go to speak to them (say I've completed 3 for them) I can say 'I've completed the ... job' for only ONE of them then all the other responses disappear. The only way I can get more responses from either of them (including the quit option for the jobs) is to say yes to a new job. In essence I can't finish a job without starting another.

Now, that was fine while I was building influence, but I'm guildmaster now and I want to collect the rewards for the jobs I've done WITHOUT starting another. At any one time I have 6 jobs sitting in my quest log and its driving me mad that I can't get rid of them!! :(

I know you said the game had potentially limitless quests Bethesda, but this is ridiculous! ;-)

thanks

Glory of the Dead (The Companions quest)

Whenever I finish the Purity of Revenge quest and head back to Whiterun with Vilkas, he says that I should come to Skyforge to pay my respects and then I get the message that I've completed the Purity of Revenge quest. The bad thing is that I don't get the Glory of the Dead quest at all. Vilkas just walks back to Jorrvaskr and then everyone just sits there like nothing happened. I can talk to everyone and all the leaders still offer me those little jobs like stealing the plans and rescue missons and whatnot, but I can not get the Glory of the Dead quest. Major bummer. If anyone knows how to get this to work I'd be forever grateful!

In the end, he never gets out anyways. A guard is sappose to go over there and the guard says he "lost the key" and will "find it eventually". So the prisoner never can leave the cell.

"Hired Muscle" Assigned to intimidate Sven who is dead, here is what I put in the thread I made for it.

Many accounts of problems have been encountered with this quest and keeps people from continuing through the Companions Guild quest line and I have encountered a "glitch" that prevents me from finishing the quest. This quest is given to you by Farkas and you have to intimidate someone which is entirely random, could be a select few of people the game will choose or it could be anyone I don't know but it is broken in the aspect that it can even choose a dead person which in my case was Sven whom was killed by a dragon. Others are given people they can't intimidate such as one person has to intimidate someone in jail (Molgrom), others get someone who is a sailor on a ship which your not alowed to be in because it's trespassing and the option doesn't pop up when in conversation (Dorian). This quest is majorly broken and glitchy as can be and needs fixed, if on PC you can avoid most of these problems but for those on consoles like me you can't and get screwed almost instantly. People help get this quest patched, it really is broken and ruins part of the game for me and I'm too far ahead in the game to restart.

I also have found two gliched quests. I have gotten to the part in the quest "Alduin's wall" where you are suppose to stand on the circle right in front of the wall with with the face on it, and i wont let me do anything. I tried reloading the auto-save....nothing. Also the quest where you have to attack Fort Neugrad. I'm at the part where you have to talk to the guy outside, but when i try to talk to him the dialog doesn't come up.

I really hope they come out with a patch to fix these

Thieves guild - Introduction quest.
After i steal some ring and put it in the argonian pocket, Bryjnolf is bugged. The quest is indeed finished but no more quest is launched after the last Brynjolf dialog. So i can't join the thieves : /

However i noticed that i had taken the other thieves guild quest with the strange gem (show to Vex). I think that taking this strange gem (Fighters guild) before the Brynjolf quest has broken the thieves guild quest.
In my new game i hadn't picked up the gem and OH, the thieves guild is mine : )

Companions Guild "Purity" quest

On the quest for the companions called "Purity," the point of the quest is to cure one of the brothers of lycanthropy. In my case it is for Vilkas. I talk to Vilkas and recieve the quest, the issue is as soon as I step outside the Companions guild place, he immediately stops following me and knows nothing of the quest. The quest is then put into my completed quests, and I am unable to do the quest at all. I've tried many means of completing it, none have worked. I'm sorry if this has been addressed before, but it is very frustrating as I now can't complete all the quests for the Companions guild.

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but on Death Incarnate (Dark Brotherhood quest), there is a glitch that freezes the game and prevents me from finishing it. Happens every time when I enter the tomb.

I am also unable to complete the "Waking Nightmare" quest.

Here's what happened:

  • I went inside the Nightcaller Temple ahead of him, looked at some books, activated the shrine there. There was an annoying repeating sound coming from behind the wall; sounded like one of the spiders.
  • Went back outside where Erandur was waiting, talked to him, and he went inside. I then followed right after him
  • He was not inside. Tried entering and exiting and he is nowhere to be found. There is a marker on the local map on another part of the dungeon that is inaccessible. I can't complete the quest because Erandur has not opened the carving.

Another Bug
My friend also discovered a bug with a quest where you need to place a sword on a statue, which opens a door. I'm not sure what dungeon or quest this is a part of. He double-tapped the A-button by accident, which placed the sword and then quickly picked it up. It registered as completing the quest, but the door did not open.
