Faralda Bug
So, there appears to be a problem with the Faralda NPC after I gain access to the College of Winterhold. When walking across the bridge, she only lights one of the wells whilst then shooting balls of light randomly at the other wells but she does so too early and they instead make contact with the bridge itself. Also, when we finish our business with one another, she just stands on the bridge and strikes up a convorsation whenever I get close enough.

Anyone else experiencing this, and if so, any solutions?

Yes I'm experiencing the same, don't remember she has any problem in my long time ago previous playthrough.

Maybe it's because I modded my game.
I had problem with recently finished Blood on Ice quest in which Calixto was unsheathing his dagger but immediately sheathing it after and not attacking his victim. Could end the quest without much problem but it was odd for me since I like being immersed in the game.

Anyway I can have many different little glitches here and there it's true, so many it is the consequence of heavily modded Skyrim, even if I took much care to compatibility, load order and solving potential glitches through TESVedit.
Apparently wasn't enough. Skyrim is such a pain to mod when you have many different mods you want to add in.

So true. And the most annoying problem when u mod ur game is the black face bug... Or that you find randomly NPC's dead for no reason and you don't even know what killed them. Couldn't be vampires, because i have a mod, that disable vampire attacks in cities. But yeah... cannot imagine playing without mods, especially without Unofficial Patch, it's a must have in bethesda games tbh.

Keep some distance as you follow her, and she won't talk to you.
I solved this by following some guide found on the web, hope it could help the ones having that problem.

Note that I tried to do it without the tp for the third and she shot the light orb perfectly from the second well/pillar or whatever you call this.

New bug I encountered today is the famous quest markers not showing on map.
