Helping the old man act 1 broken quest?

Post by ruziel »

Quest says to save the old man. I killed all the mobs surrounding him and he is still chain healing himself and when I speak to him he says "Help me young one!" over and over. Broken quest or am I doing something wrong? Thanks

Have you tried leaving the area, and returning?

Hopefully, they'll get a patch out, soon. I'd personally like to see the Town Portal spell actually work when you reload a game. ;)

If you saved anytime before the bug, an easy way to bypass the bug is to allow the guy to get pounded on for a few seconds, then jump in. I had the bug, and i saved after the bug happened (im retarded) but if you look in your DS2 dir you will see that the game keeps 2 saves in your save folder. current and previous. i loaded up the previous which put me back before the bug occured. I tried this out maybe 10 or so times and actually got past the bug 100% when letting him get beat on a little. When I rushed in, It resulted in the bug happening again more times then not.
