Missing a relic of power???

Hey all, not sure if i'm bugged, or just missing something here... I have obtained 3 of the 5 relics, the horn, the leather armor and the staff of light or whatever it is.

the 2 i'm missing are the one on the missing girl and the one in the vale of ruin.

trouble is... i seem to be stuck. not sure how to advance the story... i have tasks left in my quest list (most of which i have done, BTW) and some i haven't (like the blood of valdaan, the tomb of souls, speaking to Grymlock etc).

So... the problem is this - i CAN'T speak to grymlock and say the words i'm meant to say - he isn't there at all! i CAN'T open the tomb of souls, even though in the quest log it tells me what words to speak to get in - it isn't an option when i get to the door - so i CAN'T see how i can get to the vale of ruin either.... i'm simply running around doing nothing and it's starting to bug me.

anybody know what i need to do? please?

me too

I'm in the same situation except I have different relics...I have a shadow crystal from the sea of woe and the eye of the sigil from the Naga Temple but where did you get the leather armor and staff of light?

you don't have relics. the eye of the sigil in the naga temple is used to open a area in the naga temple that leads to the naga boss, who you need to defeat.

and the shadow crystal on the idle of woe is used to open up the shadow ruins that lead to one of the other relics. what you have in your posession is two things needed to OBTAIN two of the relics, not the relics themselves. you know you have a relic when you can stick it on one of the five stands down in the ruins at talendor.

anyhow, i found grymlock. he was wandering around, not in his tower at all. i've been looking for him all over and i can't believe how long it took to find him!

so i got the fourth relic. now i'm after the chick, but stuck again. i still can't use the words at the tomb of souls, yet i have placed the blood on the unholy arc (nothing happened when i did that - which surprised me). guess i need to start the whole 'wandering around for days technique again'... the bugs in this game are driving me nuts! (things like completing a quest that still stays in the quest list - makes you feel like maybe it's hung, but you never actualy know... and being told to find the girl before any of the other relics, only to find out on forums that she has the LAST relic you find...)

it's a shame, the potential is here, but it's the least finished game i've seen released for a good few years - i thought publishers were over that dark era in game publishing...

With regards to the part with the unholy arc, when you put the blood in the arc, a messenger appears way up in the sky. Its so far up that you dont even see it unless you know what your looking for. I have the same problem as i cant seem to speak the words to the watcher in the tomb of souls. So if anyone out there has any ideas thanks in advance

I to had that problem, I placed the vial and saw her way up in the sky just hovering, I left the Vale and went to Fargrove, slepta full 24 hours and went back, I was able to take back the vial and then replace it in about 2 seconds she came down.
