Taking Up Arms:
When i try to start the quest for the companions the guy Farkah (or whatever his name is) wont stop following me and it keeps putting his dialogue on my screen. Its extremly frustrating and i hope it gets fixed soon. Im tired of him following me around and i cant do any of the quest because i cant talk to anyone because he always interrupts.

Solitude misc quest: Speak to Greta about going to the Temple of Divines.

If you loot the Amulet of Talos before accepting the quest, you can still complete it, but Greta does not take it from you and does not give you the reward. It still shows the quest as unfinished and the item is stuck in my inventory forever.

Anyone have this problem?

Blessings of Nature was done post Civil War and the Dead Tree is still their with what looks like the sapling stuck inside it [If you get the sapling instead of the sap]

QUEST: "Blood on the Ice"

I see there are a few ways to start the quest, I started it by finding a woman dead in the graveyard.

Then I talked to Jarleif and got permission to investigate. While wandering around the city I stumbled upon the house the killer uses. This made the quest objective go to "Enter the house"
1. I found the house and got the amulet, pamphlets, and journals.
2. I talk to Jiola Giordanno.
3. I took the amulet to Calixto. He told me Wuunferth is the criminal.
4. I do not sell the amulet to Calixto.
5. I tell Jarleif that Wuunferth is the killer.
6. I steal Calixto's safe key and open the safe, finding a journal implicating him for the murders.
7. I am unable to talk to Calixto or Jarleif about it so I give up and go elsewhere.

Later I return to the city to find a woman dead on the street next to the tavern. I talk to a guard and he refers me to Wuunferth.
(It is nighttime, this may be important?)
1. I immediately visit Wuunferth and tell him the killer struck again.
2. He sends me to the Stone District to try and catch the killer.
3. I exit the keep, it is still nighttime and I head to the stone district. I go down towards the tavern and see a guy sprint away from where the girl was killed by the tavern earlier.
4. I chase him to the house the killer uses. I enter the house he sees me and attacks me. I attack him back. He is injured, but I cannot kill him. I cannot talk to him or pickpocket him. He recovers and I attack him again, but I cannot kill him. I leave the zone and come back in, cannot kill him or talk to him.

I attempted to remove his Essential flag using "SetEssential HisCode 0" and I tried using the console "Kill" command to see if it would let me kill him to finish the quest, but I was unable to remove his essential flag. I waited in game for days, but he never leaves the house again.

I don't want to use the console command to complete the quest because if I do Wuunferth is still in jail and Calixto stays in the house (possibly permanently?).

Revealing the Unseen/Containment: After I go outside after the explosion, the archmage's body is on the ground, but the old guy (his name starts with a T, I forget) isn't there is to start the quest "containment", they all act like savos isn't dead. So I can't do anything else for the college now.

i cant become thane of riften, i did enough quests, bought a house and in my quest log it says talk to the jarl and there is an arrow over her head but theres no ' i helped ur people ' dialogue err anything

Wow...video game? More like murphies law in video game form...sign me up for the season unending glitch. Should be called quest unending...or fail unending

You're unable to speak with Ulfric aswell?

I know a way around this and how to complete it legit, though you'll have to have a save before you started the mission, or at least, before you told Jaleif that Wuunferth was the killer.

Firstly you have to sell the amulet to Calixto when you have the opportunity otherwise the amulet will not be transformed into the Necromancers Amulet and it will also be stuck in your inventory as a quest item even if you complete the quest.

The second thing is when you obtain the evidence and speak to that elf chick, DO NOT follow her advice and talk to Jaleif, instead go to Wuunferth's quarters, located in the castle upstairs through the door on your left as you enter the main hall, and talk to him about him being a necromancer, he will then deny it, tell you that the amulet was the necromancers amulet and that if you hang around the market district at might there will be another attack.

When you discover Calixto murdering the girl you MUST kill him before he reaches the house or it will glitch out and he cannot die.

Also after doing this quest, you have the option of buying the Hjerim House, or you can buy it before you do the mission but are unable to upgrade the house until you complete the quest.
The problem with the house however is the blood stains and items such as the altar and all the skeletons and stuff are not removed from the house when you buy it or upgrade it, meaning that amongst all your stuff the walls will be still be covered in blood and the secret room (which becomes the alchemy and enchanting room) still has the massive altar in the way and covered in blood and bones from the quest. Also i am unable to use any of the weapon racks, wall plaques or bookshelves in the house. However i cannot use any other weapon racks or shelves or plaques in any other houses, in fact i didn't even know you could use them until i played skyrim at my mates house and he was playing on his xbox and tv next to me and showed me his stock of unique weapons on his racks and wall hangings, so i was pretty pissed and jealous as you can imagine.

I still have the amulet from this quest stuck in my inventory and am unable to drop it, and because i didn't sell it to calixto it did not upgrade to the necromancers amulet so it is useless, takes up space and weighs..... all this glitched undroppable quest items are really annoying me.

Yeah same problem. I also had looted an Amulet of Talos from a chest or something, so now I have two that can't be removed, and a quest that can't be completed.

Another thing that is bothering me. I have finished the MQ and I have finished the stormcloak missions and liberated skyrim and defeated all the imperials. HOWEVER, why are the imperial commanders/legates in the military camps throughout the wilderness unkillable? Ulfric said that i can roam and do what i want but if i see any imperial camps i should wipe them out, so i happily fast travelled to an imperial camp and started killing legionnaires however when it came to the boss at the camp, he was unkillable, probably due to the fact he is needed for the imperial side of the quests, but my argument is, because i have sided with the stormcloaks, done all the missions and can no longer join the legion why the [censored] ate there imperial legates who still cannot be killed. THIS svckS and means i can not kill the remaining the legion camps. I think the devs have made WAY TOO MANY people unkillable in this game. like seriously.

On a side not, even though i'm having a lot of glitches and problems, i am still loving this game to death and having fun, albeit having to skip some quests. The one thing I can say without a doubt that veth have done perfectly is the armor in skyrim, seriously [censored] amazing. Loving all the sets, and they are perfect, i just smithed a full set of dragon plate and am loving it, by far my favourite though i just love them all, except for the ancient nordic armour, that armor is amazing but there are horrible clipping issues with the legs in 3rd person.

Even though it takes up space, it doesn't affect your carry limit. I've found out (after storing all my items except the non-removable quest items) that even though some quest items like Red Eagle's Fury have a carry weight, they don't actually effect your limit. I had the Fury, two Talos amulets, and a book in my inventory and nothing else, and my weight was 0/355 at the time.

boethiah daedric quest glitch... so i get the sacrificial sword, hire the elf from whiterun to sacrifice go boethiahs shrine sacrifice my follower, then the follower turns into boethiah and gets stuck in a constant loop of saying the exact same thing , im supposed to talk to boethiah but cant, anybody know a work around or have any others been experianceing this im lvl 38 and its driving me nuts ive tried saveing reloading installing and unistalling from hdd but to no avail just the same loop the qeust just dosent fire properly

Same issue with Aldis. He's in a wall it would appear.

The murderer quest in ulfrics hometown (sorry forget the name) - discovered the crime scene, did objectives, looted body, body moved to halls of dead & maker points to crime scene i cant examin & jarls assistant i cant speak to...

Onmund's Request- Xbox 360
If you get the Grand Staff of Charming BEFORE you get the quest to pick it up from Enthir, you become eternally stuck with the staff. You can't turn it in to him, you can't drop it, store it, or give it away. You can kill Onmund, but that doesn't seem like the best option to complete the quest.

So there have been a couple threads about this bug, but I don't think any have been around the first page long enough for anyone at Beth to have noticed.

Here's some more information to help you guys figure out the root problem.

After curing lycanthropy the 100% resistance to disease has been removed from the active effects page. Beast form has been removed from my abilities page. Upon resting I do not receive the rested or well rested notification, and the bonuses do not show on the active effects page.

I've noticed that my "days as a werewolf" counter continues to climb. Also upon noticing this I decided to stand outside my Breezehome and see what the gaurds have to say. Sure enough one comments " is that fur coming out of your ears?".

Clearly the game thinks I'm still a werewolf. I love you Bethesda and I love Skyrim, but how the heck did this one slip by, everyone I know who has cured their lycanthropy is experiencing this bug. So you mean to tell me nobody thought it a good idea to playtest the lycan cure and make sure its working?

The two I have hit so far are Skooma Source and Pantea's Flute. Both of which I found the dungeon for before I got the quest.

Hmm, when I did this quest I simply fast traveled away and my companion reappeared by my side...

I've seen this one around in the forum, but I figured I'd add it here as well.

Dawnstar: Collect Bounty from Skald.
I randomly came across the criminal outside Loreius' Farm and killed her after she started attacking me when a wolf randomly attacked me also (I was just walking past her and since she wasn't agro I WAS just gonna leave her alone. She shouldn't have butt into the wolf and I's business)

Now the Miscellaneous Objective updated to Collect Bounty from Skald, but doesn't allow you to make the quest active. I wouldn't have even remembered where to try to take it back to if it wasn't for the interwebs.

Patch coming for Thanksgiving! I'll be in Vegas losing money. Hope everyone else will be enjoying the patch!

Isn't there a 200 post cap? interesting.. anyways, i think multiple threads is a better idea than 400+ unlabeled posts depicting a lot of the same quests. The best way to go around things is to create a list of broken quests into the original thread post so that people dont have to make pointless posts about the same quest AND it is actually easy for bethesda to find broken quests.

It would also be nice if there was a dev/mod to let us know when the dev team is actually aware of the bug/glitch that is being posted about.

Boethiah's Calling: After I sacrifice my follower, I can't talk to Boethiah. She just repeats the lines about wearing flesh and catching her attention over and over.

I don't know if it has already been mentioned, but I guess the more it's moaned about the more Bethesda will do something about it.

I just finished the quest "Loud and Clear" for the Thieves Guild in which you have perform a robbery and sabotage of beehives at Goldenglow Estate. After I had performed all tasks, I returned to the NPC Brynjolf to receive payment and the next quest. After exchanging dialogue, I received my pay but did not receive the next quest, that being "Dampened Spirits" in which Brynjolf states that Maven Black-Briar requests me by name to speak to her about a special contract.

The quest did not appear in my quest log and the only the only dialogue I receive from Brynjolf is a generic response, being"Sorry, Lad... I've got Important things to do. We'll speak another time." I cannot speak to him about any topics, nor when I speak to Maven Black-Briar can I speak about the contract, whether I meet her in Black-Briar estate or the Bee and Barb to talk to her.

This is extremely annoying. The Thieves Guild was pretty much the only set of quests I very much looked forward to and now I'm forced to wait for an update. Other players that have posted on Gamespot and Gamefaq's separate forums having also experienced the same problem.

I am having the same issue! Did you end up finding out how to fix it??
