Cure for vampirism

Post by Smidge »

reet.
Ive done everything, gotten all the ingrediants for the witch, took the potion to the count.
The count gave the potion to that lass who needed it, but then thats it, shes meant to die, but she just isnt, and ive been waiting there for ages?
Anyone else had this problem or know what to do about it?
thanks xD

Sounds like a bug (spoilers)

This quest has a lot of potential bugs. If you have the PC version of the game be sure you have the latest game patch installed. Unless you can go back to a previous save and retry this part of the quest you'll probably have to use the console to cheat your way past the bug. The command for doing this is "player.setstage <QuestID><Stage>". The <QuestID> in this case is MS40 (you can look these up by going to Oblivion - UESPWiki). To get past where the countess is supposed to die try setting the stage to 80. Hopefully you will still get your reward from the count 24 hours later. If not, set the stage to 100 and just forfeit the reward (8000 gold I believe). If you need to use the console (just hit the tilde "~" key) type in "player.setstage MS40 80" and hit the enter key. Do not type in the quotation marks though. If it works you should get an update to your quest log telling you to wait 24 hours before speaking to Hai-Liurz who will ask the Count to see you. If you don't have the PC version of the game you can check out UESP Wiki for other game platform work arounds. Good luck

I hate it when my game crashes so I save as often as I can possibly remember to do so. I also keep a base save of important events that have passed. Especially the save right before you exit the sewers for the first time.
