Did not get log after completing a cauldron

[Ekena]

I completed cauldron Xi a couple of days ago. It's marked as completed on my map and the machines overrides are unlocked, but I just noticed I'm missing the log in the machine datapoints. I tried going back there but the core is flooded with lava. Also, when I approached the cauldron entrance it triggered the cultists/machines fight from the end of the mission.

Does anyone know how to fix this ? I can't go back a couple of saves to do the cauldron again.

Tl:Dr- Get it on New Game plus if you're enjoying the game.

Non-Tl:Dr - I missed many data points through the game when I first played through and I am getting as many as possible while doing my NG+ cycle. It's quite different on NG+ but I also kicked the difficulty up a notch so that has affected my game.

I can't explain the reason for getting that fight again but killing the mobs with the newly acquired overrides should net some useful XP if you're not at the level cap. The trigger must be as you approach the area.

Is Xi the last cauldron you have done on the main game or have you got another to do?

I had another look at my datapoints and turns out I had the log for Cauldron Zeta, even though I hadn't completed it (but I had discovered it, even before going to Cauldron Xi, only I got spooked by the stalkers and decided to do it later). I just completed Cauldron Zeta and unlocked the log for Cauldron Xi as well as the log for all Cauldrons. Maybe completing them in an different order than I discovered it caused the issue ? All is well in the end, 100% is still attainable.

That's good news dude! Nice one for clearing the cauldrons. Those stalkers are tough when you struggle to see their tell while invisible. Once you can see them while they are in stealth mode it makes them easier to deal with them. Good luck with the 100% playthrough!
