Restarting the Dark Brotherhood Questline (Possible Spoilers

Post » Sun Dec 30, 2012 6:35 am

Hi all,

Was wondering if someone knew how to restart the DB questline? I'm on PC so I could use the console.

The reason is, DB Forever quest got bugged for me (didn't pick new targets, or the target selected wasn't there), so I was thinking if I could restart the questline I could go through it all again and hopefully won't come up with this error again.

Any ideas would be great.

Thanks!

Easiest way is to load a save game from prior to starting the questline.

You can use the console, but it's just as likely to make things worse doing so. You'd have to reset the quest stages, probably reset items and npcs and reset scripts.

If I were to restart the questline, I'd have to siv through 100's of save files. I must of made it like, months upon months ago. I've tried using the setstage command and start from the beginning but the next one doesn't start (were Astrid takes you to the shack).

So I'm a bit lost with what to do :/

You could reset each quest using player.resetquest command in the console...But reloding a previous save is the safest bet.
