The Count Needs More Time Bug (Vampire)

[CptnSpandex]

So i am now stuck as a vampire and i want to complete this quest, i have given the count the cure and he told me to talk to the argonian tomorrow to continue the quest, i have waited 2 weeks and all she keeps saying is the count needs more time and the count says go away so now i am screwed, crazy thing is this bug has been there for 16 YEARS, yup and they still have not fixed it, that is epic, how has bethesda not fixed this bug in 16 years.

Anyone remember from the original how to unstick this quest ?, i can cure my vampirism other ways but this will bug the hell out of me until i am able to complete this quest, it has basically ruined a 40 hour play through, so far i have tried whacking him and getting him to chase me into the castle, payed fine, and for a bit he wanders the castle again but no matter how long you wait the khajit always says come back later he will see you when hes ready, which apparently is never.

Gonna keep bumping this until we get a convo going about this bug since every time i try get help with an actual oblivion related problem it gets buried by the usual trolls harping on about gender and creating 5 hundred million threads on it every 5 seconds. Even after now getting to move the count away from his hidey hole next to his wifes bed he now just stays in the corner of the court and will not move.

I have taken the cure but this quest will not go any further, it just sticks here.

I have the same problem, not sure what to do.

On 360 I'd just pick into his room and talk to him fast. If you've gone past to where he won't talk to you now you'll need to reload a previous save

BTW if you haven't heard, the Unofficial Oblivion Patch was ported to the remaster, so definitely install it. It fixes a lot of bugs like this.

Really annoying, no matter how many times you get him unstuck he will find you and tell you please go and then remain in that spot forever.

He will not move so there is no picking into his room, tried that but the only way he will move is if you attack him and then like i said he will find you and tell you to go away and then remain in the spot he spoke to you for eternity. If bethesda expect people just to accept this as part of the originals charm though that is a pretty crappy move on their behalf.

easily fixed. just work your way down to deepscorn hollow. find the room with a stone pillar surrounded by water. in a nearby corner is a bunch of rocks, collect the salts, use them at pillar, bam, vampirism cured.

Yup, I remember this bug which is why I never wanted to become a vampire anymore.
