The Horn of Jurgen Windcaller still broken?

Post » Mon May 21, 2012 1:56 pm

I see this is a bug that has apparently been fixed in the 1.1 patch, but I still seem to get it. I've gone back to other saves and tried taking different paths to this quest, i.e. not going on other quests, restarting at beginning of tomb, etc... Yet Wulfgar still stands there and shrugs his shoulders at me... Anyone else confirm that this is still a problem? or at least if there is a way to fix it.


EDIT: I got it to work, may have found weird problem.
For some reason, I went outside and talked to the head guy at that temple place and he still would do nothing. While messing around, I closed the big gate and what do you know, everyone went inside and I could continue this quest. For some reason, just closing the gate outside made everything work. Strange

This worked for me also, tried previous saves but kept glitching at the Wulfgar part, he'd just gesture the word on the floor and sit back down. I then went back outside opened and closed the gate a few times and eventually the other grey beards started to return to the building. Might be worth trying the sprint shout through the gate to trigger it also as when they did respond the one said "is that your best attempt". hope this helps.

I'm having the same issue. I have read countless forums about this. This is my first Elder Scrolls game but i'm familiar with MMO's and the glitches they carry. This is similar. I'm so tired of getting the same response " Load to an earlier date" . MOST people who have had this issue noticed it right away and just kept questing (As did I). But now i'm trying to complete a quest further down the chain " The Throat of The World". I ignored the fact that it might have been glitching on me 15 levels ago and don't feel like reloading at that point. Every bit of help seems to say that or trying to tell people what to do when the quest log just says "Talk to Wulfgar". Everyone has the horn the monk just wont do anything. The only thing i can think of that might have caused this is i got the note and didn't notice you can click on the platform holding it to get the soul. I came back to the dungeon to look around cause i'm trying to figure this out manually but no luck. I even tried killing all of them in hope that they would reset and it would work properly but you cant kill them it seems. This is on Bethesda's end. WE NEED A FIX FOR THE FINAL WORD OF UNRELENTING FORCE! Help us! I was hoping there was a code online to skip quests but i don't know enough about these elder scrolls games to see how that works. BUMP

I'm in the same situation. There is no excuse for not having a fix for this yet

Nothing still? Do Bethesda Employees monitor these boards at all to help with issues?

http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:The_Horn_of_Jurgen_Windcaller it's a known bug and the only "fix" that doesn't alway's work is to open and close the gate. Sorry, I just spent an hr looking here and their for another answer.

I had a different bug that the only fix for was to start over. I hated that so, I looked.
