The Worm Churns quest failed?
I noticed it said I failed that quest but I have no idea how or why?
I broke the thing and got congratulated for letting Chaos in. What else was I supposed to do?

Anyone reading this thread, this is what you have to do:
1. Destroy the stiffler in the chasm, just walk around the place and you will see icon with the magnifying glass and when you click it, it changes to finger and you can destroy it. THIS STIFFLER IS IN THE CHASM MAIN AREA, NOT IN ANATOMICAL OPERA OR PIT OR ANY OTHER SIDE AREA. Walk along the edges, you will see it but it can be little difficult to find
2. Sabotage anatomical opera: complete the arena fights until the guy in the anatomical opera gets angry at you, then walk around and release the energies (one of them require the puzzle with the three buttons so you can lower the gages and get to that area, note that you need to complete all but the last arena fights to access this. I think there was 3 or 4 points you need to disrupt.
3. Take over the pit by killing the worm creature, and then sacrifice the shriekers
4. After the last arena fight you get option to release the dust, do it now
5. Quest is complete. The final stifler has nothing to do with the quest itself

IT IS NOT BUGGED, JUST VERY BADLY EXPLAINED

Have the same problem. Loot everything, but nothing has changed. The only assumption I have is that in order to perform this action (more heretical), you must have the 3rd level of Heretic. But then it would be shown as closed due to insufficient leveling of the parameter, but it's just not there. They also wrote in July that they found a choice for this quest “[Destroy the stifler] Edge! See through my eyes a doorway into the Dark City and accept it as my offering” in the game files. It seems like you need the "corrupted warp flesh" item for this, but I'm not sure.

I got the quote prompt and a scripted event happened where a demon killed everyone and thanked me for opening the door. He told me to leave and go back home but it just auto fails once I finish act 3.

Im wondering if its because I did that before the final fight? I also had the 2 eldar with me so maybe having them with you soft locks that quest because it triggers them as being your guide through the webway instead of a demon?

After breaking last thing you need to sacrifice people
Capture the pit and oreder it
After the final battle you will be promted to relese the dust, thus breaking the last barrier for chaos

Are we talking about the same thing?
Act 3 where your climbing the Dark Eldar tower to escape through the webway.
:o I broke the thing by the homunculus but had no options to sacrifice anyone and didnt see a pit or any dust.

I left them on purpose for the sake of the ritual, I went through everything and was not given any choice to sacrifice them.

I deliberately killed my partner and the seer - nothing has changed.

I asked the harlequin to take with me the people who should be used for the ritual - STILL NO OTHER CHOICE APPEARS, THESE PEOPLE DO NOT APPEAR ANYWHERE AT ALL. There is simply no choice to take them with you, which would be “heretical”.

For everyone who has the same problem, I inform you that this is a bug that cannot be solved without cheats. The only way to complete the quest is to use fanbox (in Nexus mods) and fulfill all quest requirements before entering the portal. The ritual with the sacrifice of people should already take place in the lair, even before entering the arena. It is also necessary to sabotage the anatomical opera (which obviously cannot be accessed after entering the arena) and destroy the stifler "in the arena", which I did not find. And for some unknown reason, in the execution branch the VERY FIRST thing is the destruction of the stifler in the tower, from where it is impossible to return. Either the quest is completely broken, or only some people have it broken.

I thought I had this same bug - I went to the Pit and could not sacrifice any of the shriekers. I then figured , what the heck, and antagonized Malice into a fight and took over the Pit. You then sit on the chair and it gives you the option to sacrifice the shriekers which summons the demon and completes the quest stage. The quest description should be updated to something as 'take over the pit and sacrifice the shriekers" instead of just sacrifice shriekers
The author of this thread has indicated that this post answers the original topic.

I had to reload my save because of missing some of the things.

Anyone reading this thread, this is what you have to do:
1. Destroy the stiffler in the chasm, just walk around the place and you will see icon with the magnifying glass and when you click it, it changes to finger and you can destroy it. THIS STIFFLER IS IN THE CHASM MAIN AREA, NOT IN ANATOMICAL OPERA OR PIT OR ANY OTHER SIDE AREA. Walk along the edges, you will see it but it can be little difficult to find
2. Sabotage anatomical opera: complete the arena fights until the guy in the anatomical opera gets angry at you, then walk around and release the energies (one of them require the puzzle with the three buttons so you can lower the gages and get to that area, note that you need to complete all but the last arena fights to access this. I think there was 3 or 4 points you need to disrupt.
3. Take over the pit by killing the worm creature, and then sacrifice the shriekers
4. After the last arena fight you get option to release the dust, do it now
5. Quest is complete. The final stifler has nothing to do with the quest itself

IT IS NOT BUGGED, JUST VERY BADLY EXPLAINED

I went trhough every area of the chasm to see if I missed anything but nope. Never got the option to do anything with the stifler so this one is majorly bugged. I did all the other parts
