Glory of the dead

Post » Sat May 19, 2012 7:07 pm

I have finished the purity of revenge quest for The Companions but It doesn't give me the option to start the glory of the dead quest. I have finished about 30 side quests for The Companions by talking to Aela, Vilkas, and Farkas thinking it would just start on its own. I saved over everything so I can't load and try again =((((. Any advice would be much appreciated. I just want to complete the companions questline and cure myself from being a werewolf. I don't know if this is a glitch or if it's just broken. argggg help meeee !! :facepalm:

My husband did all the companion quests with out any problems.. I was PISSED. When he finished the purity of revenge it automatically informed him to go to the skyforge and everything worked perfectly. I STILL can't find a way to fix it. I' just doing all the other quests. I just have to stay a werewolf i guess. :banghead:

Eroland just came up to me and asked me to retrieve Kodlaks piece of wuuthrand.

You on PC? You can advance to the next quest with a console command.

Also, always make new saves. I must have like 300 saves. Lol

The only problem I saw was while the funeral pyre was still burning, Eorlund decided to start smithing some weapons. Disturbing.

I am playing Skyrim on the PS3, but I just ran into a different problem from the one the TC had with this same quest.

When Vilkas and I fast traveled back into Whiterun after finishing up at Driftshade Refuge, I immediately received the message that Purity of Revenge was completed, and that Glory of the Dead was beginning. I was informed to go to the funeral, but when I get up to the Sky Forge, nothing happens. I am standing exactly where the arrow is telling me to stand, and moving around to other places around the forge, but there are many people there, including the blacksmith and nobody ever says anything or does anything. When I try talking to any of them, they are all busy and won't respond.

After reading a post on GameFaqs that claimed to have found a solution, I reloaded an earlier save and had to play through the witch cavern and Driftshade Refuge in order to get back to the funeral, and the result was the same. This time I fast traveled back to the Whiterun Stables, and the quest messages did not pop up until I walked into Whiterun, and in, through, and out of the guild hall. The Purity of Revenge and Glory of the dead quest notices popped up just as I exited the guild hall, but again, nothing happens at the funeral....everyone just stands there no matter how long I wait. I wonder if having all 5 witch heads in my inventory is causing this problem?

I can get everyone to walk away from the platform, except for Vilkas, Farkas, Aela, and the blacksmith if I use a Dragon Shout, but again, nobody says anything, and nothing ever happens. I am starting to really hate this game with the huge FPS drop (to zero sometimes), input lag on the controls, and broken quests. Just another typical bethesda mess of what could have been a great game.

Ive had multiple issues with that quest not unlocking. Only thing that worked for me was re-starting from the very beginning but others have had luck resting for a few days.

Has anyone come up with a fix for this? I too am experiencing the same problem. I finished THE PURITY OF REVENGE quest and it did not automatically start GLORY OF THE DEAD quest... this is so annoying. I even went back to a save from about 2 hours prior and re-did a lot of things including the quest before PURITY OF REVENGE and then the quest itself. When I get back to Whiterun with Vilkas, I get the "COMPLETED: PURITY OF REVENGE" message, but no new quest message. I don't know when gamesas is putting patches through for this, but come on, the game won GOTY and its been out for over a month. If its a simple coding error, fix it and send out the patch! Ive been a gamesas supporter for many years now and I will continue to do so, but I am literally 100 actual hours logged in to this game and I can't finish a quest because of a bug? This game hasn't left my disc tray since November 11th... but I think its about to...
