Stuck on top of Host Tower in Luskan

I released the Lich from his prison and he opened the door going to the portal for the last fight with the boss of Luskan tower. However, when I get to the gate on the Pinnacle, it's locked and cannot be opened. I must have missed a key, but I'm not sure where I should look for it since i opened everything I came across. Any thoughts?

Thanks

When you say you can't open the last gate - does this mean that you haven't seen a cut-scene where Aribeth and Maugrim speak with Morag?

Also - is your game patched to version 1.62?

Yeah, I haven't seen that yet. I see that massive host of creatures, including Maugrim, just waiting for a battle. But I cannot open that gate to get to them.

And yeah, I use the auto-update regularly to be sure I'm up to date. So, I should be at that version. This is the third odd thing to happen to me in Luskan so far, all seeming kinda buggy. Hopefully it's just me and there's something I'm missing.

Thanks again for your help

Luskan is a buggy area.

But here is what you can do:

1.25: NPCs at pinnacle of Host Tower not responding (Back to Top)

If you have reached the pinnacle of the Host Tower, and the NPCs on the other side of the locked gate do not respond and do not run their in-game cutscene, the best way to continue is by running a particular script. First, press ` or ~ to display the command console in the upper left of the screen and then type the following to enter DebugMode:

DebugMode 1

Once you have done that, prepare for a fight, and then open the command console again and type the following:

dm_runscript 2q6k_startfight

NOTE: There is a single space between the dm_runscript command and the name of the script.

The gate should open, and the NPCs should attack you. Once they are disposed of, you can turn off DebugMode with:

DebugMode 0

Then, read your journal entry and use your Stone of Recall to report back to Aarin Gend and finish the chapter.

Much appreciated. My character will be happy to get off the top of that tower.

It worked and I passed that level. Thanks again!

A thought - this bug is so common at the moment, that you might want to sticky the solution for now?

Good suggestion - I've made a sticky for the problem, but will monitor views/traffic it gets and possible remove it if it isn't well-used.

I'm trying to keep stickys to a minimum
