Deirex and Imprisonment bug *SPOILERS*

[Mrmo]

So, I got the magical rope in Ust Natha, barged into Deirex's tower, and hit Deirex with the mace of disruption before he even got the chance to speak to me, instantly destroying his wretched undead form. I mean, he's a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ed lich, why would I even try speaking to him? :D

This seems to have **completely broken** the quest for Jarlaxle's gems, as when I found the said gems, I was teleported to Jarlaxle's pocket dimension and given the... quest to find the gems.

I cannot get back to him and give him the gems, because the lich was supposed to teleport me to the pocket dimension in the first place, and finding the gems should have ended the quest.

So yeah. Being too OP can break the game :)

I just ran into a similar bug that has pretty much ended my game because the auto and quick save are after ive killed the lich and my 3rd one is so far back i dont wanna do all that crap again. I didnt insta kill lich though. I walked into tower and got pulled into pocket dimention like i guess you are supposed to and got the quest to grab gems. got ported back, killed lich and i get pulled back into pocket dimension as soon as I loot the gems. Heres where it messes up. Either the guy isnt there at all and im stuck there forever or he there starts his speech but gets cut off and disapears leaving me stuck as well. I can not loot the gems and leave tower but whole city has now agro on me. Any ideas?

Hmmm... for MrMotinjo, have you tried putting the gems back and then looting them again? I rather doubt it'll work... but *shrug* why not. Other than that, if you could find the AR code for the pocket dimension with Jarlaxle you could teleport back in using CLUAConsole:MoveToArea("") and he would (hopefully) finish the quest dialog.

For Jargas, I have no clue cause that doesn't even make sense how that would happen. I expect the entire City is hostile because you didn't finish Jarlaxle's quest in the time allowed. I don't think there's any way to fix that.

The other option for both of you would be to use a save game editor (or just the CLUAConsole if you know EXACTLY what you're doing) and tinker until you found the appropriate variables to reset the quest.

Jarlaxle's Pocket Dimension appears to be AR2208. I have not tested this.

[Mrmo]

Yeah, I was about to suggest using console to get yourself unstuck :D
I did try putting the gems back and grabbing them again btw, but nothing happened :) Luckily I was rather overpowered and was about to finish the Underdark part altogether, so I just went with the story and everything turned out OK (I probably missed getting XP for that quest, but I don't really care about it) :)

I did the quest and grabbed the gems right after being ported back so I was well within the time limit. I did just finish getting the dragon eggs and am ready to leave the drow city anyway so I guess I'll just fight my way out and continue on. Hopefully it will be fine.
Warning to others to be wary of this quest I guess. other than the city attacking me now i was lucky enough to have a quick save right before i grab the gems that take me to my pocket prison.
