During Proving Honor quest, while caged in Dustman's Cairn, i got a weird bug/glitch where i can't draw my weapon or use a spell. So i can't attack. No Autosave on this one, could anyone help me?

I have had a similar bug where I could not draw any spell or weapon.
Only fix I found is reloading a previous save unfortunately.

Always save regularly, always save in different slots.

Yep, it was my fault in the first place with the autosave option off :\

Similar thing happened to me except I was lucky and never had any glitch. I turned off all autosaving and my game loads so much faster it's ridiculous. Anyway I had forgotten to save after doing all this work and I thought I'd muck around and kill some guards. Usually I save before going on a killing spree but I just completely forgot. I still left autosave off for now but now I save more often. I don't know if the auto-save actually saves time but to me it does.

Spoiler
I don't believe you're supposed to be able to attack with sword or spell while caged until Varkas kills all of the Silverhand mobs and lets you out. I may be wrong, but I believe this is the case.
