Hi all

I've been (very) slowly working through the story, and have run into a problem where the game won't let me progress, despite me having found all the necessary story items (I resorted to using walkthroughs to confirm I'd done everythiung necessary). I'm in Chapter 2 and need to find evidence of where the cult is based, so that I will be allowed into Luskan.

I've found all the evidence, shown it to Aribeth and talked to Aarin, but they both keep telling me to go find more evidence.

I've gone back to all locations, in case I'd missed one of the journals or letters, but they're no longer around. So I'm assuming I've either tripped some weird bug where a flag hasn't been set and I can't proceed, or I've managed to lose one of the needed items.

I'd really rather not try loading old saves because I have no idea how far back to go (and I haven't kept much of a history of saves anyway - I tend to overwrite old saves, creating new ones when I think I've passed a major story point).

So what to do? Try grind through the level again in case I'm still missing something? Edit my saves to set that flag or give myself those story items? And if so, how?

You could check the Divining Pool (inside Port Llast's Temple of Tyr) to see if any of the items are in there

Edit: Also here's a thread that might help:

Divining pool is empty, and I'm almost certain I did actually present all three necessary items to Albireth. But I might be mis-remembering or confusing with one of the other non-conclusive evidence items. I'm busy scouring the entire landscape now for missed Remains, stuff I might've accidentally discarded, etc. Wish me luck!

I am similarly stuck. I read that I need 2 out of 3 pieces of evidence. I must have missed at least one, but I guess I can get a note from Vardoc to be the missing third item. I can't find him anywhere. so, I am stuck. I even tried killing the guards at the gates of Luskan.

Here's the items that you can use:

Ganon's Journal - North Road, Ogre Caves

Relmar's Journal - South Road, Spirit Realm
Relmar is a dwarf that you encounter while in the Spirit of the Woods. Once you've completed this section and left the realm, you're not able to return thus you want to make sure that you loot this from his body before you leave.

Charwood Cultist's Journal - South Road, Charwood Village
The cultist is hanging out in the Charwood Inn thus easy to miss. If you complete the castle part and chose to take the phylactery thus freeing the spirits to move on, the entire village will be in ruins with the cultist nowhere to be found.

There's a few other individuals that are associated with the cult - Soloman, Neva, Vardoc - but I don't remember if they drop anything that contributes to this quest.
