WTF is going on with My Umbral Gems? (Shar)

[tdblakes]

so I I complete the three (actually 4) trials in the gauntlet and now I need 5 gems? I have the one I just got, for killing the baddie one more from IDK where these are in the upper alter (I put the game down for a few months) and three empty slots in the lower alter that should have my other 3 gems in them from the trials but don't and IDK what happend to them slots are empty and the door is still locked and I can't do the trials what am I missing?

No, you only need 4.

Problem is, it may be that a bug has been introduced that causes quest items to not be recognized by the game. Lots of reports along that line.

Other question is, are you using Mods, or have you ever used Mods with BG3?

[tdblakes]

No to any mods, but thank you I had not heard that now I feel less crazy

Sounds good. I would just hold tight there until a fix is released. I would imagine it should not be long.

Could start a new Campaign and play around with some different builds and/or party makeup while waiting. :)

If there was nothing left that you wanted to do in Act 2.

Good Luck

How about you list from where you got the gems so far. To me it sounds you are missing the trials.

Same issue but i think i know why the game softlocked. To get the platform to work you need to use one gem but there is an option to use two gems. Once you place two gems in you cannot remove either of them. This is why when you go to the big door you are missing one cause one is stuck in the platform thing.

Is it possible to remove a gem that I am not thinking about? Or is this an issue a load of a previous save will fix?

Reloading will do. But what threadstarter wrote sounds different.
