College of Winterhold Quests are STILL fragile

Post » Wed Nov 09, 2016 2:31 am

I completed "Seeing the Unseen" and I never received the "Containment" quest in the College of Winterhold quest line. I progressed about ten levels and realized that this was a problem as it did not allow me to finish the main quest line in the College. I tried going back quite far and doing it again to no avail. I then tried the Unofficial Skyrim Patch mod and that worked immediately, even on the save with my character that was much higher leveled. I didn't need to redo the prerequisite quest. However, it is frustrating since I have to use it only one time and it automatically makes achievements disabled, even if I disable it again. Why has this never been truly fixed? However, all I am asking for is a solution to my problem or a possible upcoming patch.


Additional Information:

-Right after "Revealing the Unseen" is finished, nothing additional happens

-Mirabelle Ervine goes right back to normal NPC dialog, as if nothing happened.

-Ancano starts walking around as if nothing happened.

-Archmage Savos Aren is in the courtyard, however, other NPCs say some things, but never trigger the quest "Containment"

-Tolfdir never goes outside to examine Savos Aren

-Never a crowd of people around Savos Aren

-I play on Xbox One


Help plz

I feel your pain...


I cant progress in the college because I get an infinite load screen when trying to enter Fellglow keep


Same problem with dawnguard. Infinite load going into Dimhollow.



I'm starting to think I may as well give up on quests and just wander the wilderness. Fun...

That svcks. I guess I'll just have to use mods to fix this, but I want achievements! I'm so conflicted

I figured it out. I had to redo the ENTIRE college of winterhold questline with no deviation whatsoever. This means no side quests within the college of winterhold and just go through the main story. Hopefully this will help others in a similar situation.
