Gobbet's Side Mission Bug - The Sinking Ship Lower Deck

[[DeathBySleep]]

After the issue at the end of the hall and going down to the lower deck im stuck there because i cant activate the charges and theres no action that lets me jack in to activate the charges i can pull the alarm and interact with all 4 charges ( just shows my character reaching for it nothing else happens), when i get to the place with the alarm i can pull it but nothing i do seems to have any affect. Help :(

Same issue here. This whole branch where you try to sink the Sinking Ship just doesn't work.
Like another related bug I discovered when trying to replay is if you meet Cadmus and ask him about the trap room and tell him your decision to sink the ship it may become impossible to ask Jasmin about circumventing the trap.

I also have this same bug. there's no way to finish the mission.

I ran into this exact same glitch. I then restarted the mission and followed a slightly different path. If you go and trigger the fight with Gobbet apearing, then you go and talk to everyone in the ship, get the PDA for the wires and then open the door and talk to Cadmus, follow the dialogue options, then go to the trap room, then go back and alk to Cadmus, then Jasmine, then you get the option of arming the bombs, pulling the levers, and/or fighting the Rat Queen.

However I found another glitch in doing this is that you don't get the Maintenance PDA and the Shiny Object taken from the Objective Items list and you are stuck "carrying" them around for the rest of the game.

I tried to follow your workaround as closely as I could but I was unsuccessful. Where exactly does that choice present itself?

Same here. :/

Same issue.

I tried many different ways, reloading many times. In the end I had to go with the mutany option to get through the mission.

Seems to be fixed in the latest update. I was able to complete the mission by scuttling the ship.

[Jägermonster]

It's not fixed, I had that same issue just now. Gonna try to restart and see what I can do.

i got through it by organizing a mutiny you can if you have enough Charisma i couldnt do it any other way to gain access to Rat King

[ThotCrimes]

Going back and forth and reloading and trying everything in to get past all the ways this quest bugs out. Managed to get to the end. Activated both things in Matrix. Quest log says Leave ship. Went up the ladder and then I'm stuck on top of the sinking ship. Nothing happens other than infinite battle rounds with an invisible enemy. Reload game. Same thing. Turn off game and walking away. I'm done with this crap.

Like if you're playing in 2018 and this still isn't fixed :)

I recently played this and it worked. The first time the discussion after leaving the lwoer decks did not trigger, keeping me in combat. But on the 2nd try it worked like a charm,

I swear, if it weren't for the strong writing and mechanics of this franchise, I would have given up on it a long time ago. Ever since Dragonfall, every step I take in the game(s), it seems like I run into yet another bug I have to look up/find a solution for. How could a game-breaking bug like this have gone unfixed for three years?

I'm currently stuck down on the lower level, unable to do anything -- the bombs don't do anything; pulling the lever just gives me a karma, but otherwise doesn't do anything; there's no way into the room where I assume the Rat King is. The game just completely gave up.

I guess I'll have to reload and do the entire mission again and hope it feels like working this time.
