Completed "Alduin's Bane" no dialog options to conti

Post » Mon Jun 04, 2012 1:22 am

I have just "killed" Alduin on the throat of the world and when i talk to Paarthurnax or Arngeir i have no new dialog options to continue to the next quest.
I have tried setting quest stages via the console but nothing gives me the new dialogs.

Has anyone experienced this?
Does anyone have a solution?

I've searched the elder scrolls wiki, google and uesp.net but have found no solution.

Thanks.

I don't think he's suppose to die. I'm pretty sure you defeat him, and he flys away.

Yeah, he doesn't die. He actually flies away.
I was a bit unclear about this, sorry.

You can talk to Esbern as well, maybe you should see if he has the dialogue. Otherwise I would just reload a save. By the way did you use dragonrend to defeat him?

I can't find Esbern. I have read that he should be in Sky Haven Temple. But he's not there.
And no, i didn't use dragonrend. Should i have done that?

Thanks for helping out!

Yes you should have. Just use the shout at throat of the world and see if the dialogue appears.

I used the dragonrend to ground alduin. And then fought him off.
Still no luck, and no way to proceed. Do you have any other ideas?

Check out back, that's where I found him.

Also, I didn't think you COULD defeat him without using Dragonrend. I thought he wouldn't take any damage without being under its effects?

Try to go directly to the Jarl of Whiterun to trap a dragon. See if you can get the dialogue on it... You must convince him to help you to trap a dragon...

Nope. Seems to be stuck and the next quest doesn't even start.
I even tried starting it via the console. But no one wants to talk to me about the new quest.

Hes not suppose to die on throat of the world. The finial fight will be taken place in Sovngarde.

If nothing comes to then you just might need to reload the game from your previous save games.

Here is the list of bugs for that quest. Check and see if your problem is on there.

BUGS:

If you obtain the Elder Scroll before first meeting Paarthurnax, and use the dialog option "I have the Elder Scroll" immediately after receiving a quest to get the scroll, you will advance the quest but the time anomaly will not be present. Quest marker will not appear either. You have to go away (by foot or fast travel) and return (it is safe to return when the quest marker appears at the Throat of the World).
During this quest, if a player attacks Alduin before the initial speech to the player is completed, a bug may occur in which the player can no longer deal damage to Alduin, regardless of attacks.
The player can restart the Xbox, and the issue will usually be resolved. Sometimes you may need to go into console settings>memory>(y) button> and reset cache, after doing so, the player may resume after update, and defeat Alduin.
Turning off system and turning on again and loading game should fix problem. (Tested with save file just before dialogue begins)
Attacking Alduin while invisible should fix this on the PC
After the scene when they banish Alduin with the Elder Scroll, the player should go back to the present to defeat Alduin, if that doesn't happen you can type the following in the console to advance the quest:
"setstage mq206 70" This will give you the Dragonrend shout.
"setstage mq206 100" This will end the vision and transport you back to the present.
There is a bug where Paarthurnax stops being able to attack Alduin. Paarthurnax simply stands on the ground and does not move his feet or attack. It is not possible to talk to Paarthurnax either. Alduin does not take any notice of Paarthurnax's presence, which results in Alduin focusing on the player only. This seems to happen if the player uses Dragonrend on Paarthurnax, which puts him in a permanent state of not being able to do any actions. A workaround is to reload an earlier save. Paarthurnax's aid is not required to beat Alduin, however, he makes it a lot easier to finish the quest.
Sometimes after you read the Elder Scroll you will see into the past but nothing will happen. Your character will just stand there looking down a rocky path towards the red sky. You will hear and feel the dragons flying around but no dragon will land, no fighting will occur and there will be no dialogue. This glitch may occur after the three Nord heros talk about the Elder Scroll and say Alduin is coming. Alduin will fly around but not land making it impossible to continue. Restarting the game seem to fix this.
There is a bug where if you take a follower to the fight with you before you read the elder scroll, when you come back to the present your follower can get "stuck" in the past.
This can be fixed on the PC by typing into the console "prid " and then "enable". I used it at the Throat of the World just to be safe, although it may work anywhere.
Theres is a bug where if you are on The Jagged Crown quest. You can not talk to Ulfric or Galmar to complete either Alduin's Bane or The Jagged Crown.
There's a bug that can occur if you save during Alduin's dialogue where he will just continue to flap his wings and hover. Nothing with happen and you cannot continue the quest. A fix is to load the autosave from coming out of the past and the scene will play out as normal.

Nope, the bug is not there. I must have read through that list a hundred times looking for answers.
The problem is that once the quest is completed the dragon (keep forgetting his name) should be give you the next quest. But he doesn't.
All he asks is if you want to meditate...

Is it the end of the game after you kill him? Or is there more to it? I have killed him and returned to skyrim. Par gave me a dragon call if I ever need him, so is there more to the game that im missing? Or is that it?
