Soldier's Peak bug

[Eleazaros]

At closing the veil, you are supposed to defend whomever is closing it (Avernus for me). He does his little cut-scene and then takes a couple steps, turns to the center, stops and just stands there.

Anyone know how to fix this problem?

First time, I was a mage so used fireballs to move him into posion with the blast back but this time I'm a warrior and nobody has AoE knock-back abilities so I can't get him to move into position.

I've tried the screen resolution trick some say works and it doesn't - (even went window mode, 1024x768 - most popular resolution in '09 when the game came out -- nothing).

Will I need to wait on this until after I get a mage who can use fireballs again or is there another workaround?

[Eleazaros]

Got it to work - took 3 restores - reloaded from a save at the bridge coming back from Avernus' keep at 1024x768 resolution, windowed. He finally went over and started the event.

Had the same issue. What worked for me was moving my character in the path that Avernus was walking, and leading him to the summon square thing. I was a warrior, and didn't have the AoE knockback ability.

Thanks, awesome!

Thanks for that - only way I could solve that mess.

Late to this, but i found another workaround. Leave soldier's peak altogether, go back to your camp. Then go back and try. It worked first time, after an hour of trying other things.

Many Thanks, that worked perfect.

Oddly my Door back to the bridge is locked "can't be picked" so i left the other way, another oddly enough once you walk down the stairs you can't climb them again, but left the room and came back a few times finally saved and reloaded and worked.

Seems like the merchant guy is bugged to now, I ask to see his wares then nothing, tried it a few times. also stairs are like horrible, took time to get up the last step a few times.

I'll come back later maybe the merchant guy will work then.

Thanks for help

This worked perfectly! Thank you!

Easiest way is to save right after your discussion with Avernus and before he moves, then load that save

This worked perfectly !!

Now after I die I load right back into a locked room with demons pouring out of the veil with zero chance of success !!

LOL

I really gotta start alternating save files :d

Whatever you do - going with Sofia to close a portal or with mage - just right after dialog ends pause game, run to vase on oposite site with all party members and event just normally starts. It worked for me.

This was the best and easiest fix, by far. Just stand in his way and he'll walk to the summon square.
I've played through DAO multiple times and just recently bought the DLC so this was my first time with the issue. Thanks for saving me hours of trying to bug fix!
