Bring Out Your Dead - Bug in game

[Duga]

There is a bug... The gate is locked and I explored and killed everything on the map. How do you unlock the gate so I can finish this quest? I am pretty sure it is a bug because I played through with another character and was able to unlock it after killing 2 skeletons, but this play through it didn't open after I killed them. Need a fix please!

You mean the outside gate to even get into the dungeon, right? If you noticed in your previous play-through, the gate is opened by 1/2 (depending on random map) spirit keyholders being released from certain destructible features on the map; gravestones etc. - these features should be in the graveyard area so you shouldn't have to search far. Since each map is fairly random you may need to destroy multiple features to release the 1 or 2 spirits (one spirit per feature) who will open the gate for you - have a look around for any more destructible graves/sarcophagus etc. to try and 'release' these spirit keyholders.

I had it also open killing one spirit once and another time it was two.. its not bugged the 4 times ive done it so far.

It's a bug in my game... I've gone back and checked. Everything is dead and one of the spirits went through the gate after killing it and it never opened. Wish I could just remove the quest from my screen because its annoying me not being able to do the quest. Oh well

tried to reroll the map? ( make a room in lan / internet, make sure you take the x at the reroll box with you )
its kinda random what you get, sometimes you have to find one ghost / two / three. ^^

Thanks for the suggestion. After trying to reroll the map twice, the spirit finally opened the gate. That is so weird because the first time it walked right thru it like it did before. So I tried again and this time the gate actually was unlocked. Very strange.

Another solution?

Ran into this bug too. The ghost guy walked right through the gate and it didn't unlock. I just rerolled the map like the person said above, did the event again, and it worked!

Can a Lan game be started with the World Re-Roll option? Verify files if possible as well.

On some versions of the map, there are two ghosts that have to pass through the gate. On one version, there is only one ghost. Here are the versions I can think of off the top of my head:

1) Kill two boss Runemasters.

2) Tap two different crypt entrance stones. A lot of skeletons and such will spawn for each one.

3) Tap a very large casket. A lot of skeletons will spawn.

4) Tap two different obelisk grave markers. Again, enemies will spawn for each one.

I'm guessing some people don't notice the second grave marker or don't know they must hit the very large casket.

I’ll try those again although I feel like I’ve tried those already too, oh and every time I can go in the place no problem and sometimes there’s 2 skeleton heads with candles in their mouths on the sides of the place and sometimes not but I can always enter it. Hope one of ur suggestions work, tysm for replying so quickly!

How do I get support for a Runic game?
