Dragonborn *spoilers* At the Summit of Apocrypha glitch (solved)
I think this glitch started when I got out of the dwemer ruin to get the second black book, a dragon was sent by Miraak to attack me so I killed it, but instead of Miraak coming to absorb the dragon soul, I absorbed it.
I didn't encounter anything strange further into the quest until it was time to face Miraak. I stepped onto the platform of the last chapter, killed the two seekers and learned the word on the wall.
Then I was supposed to use the "bend will" shout to tame sahrotaar - mind you I unlocked all three words. Sahrotaar didn't come and attack me like he was supposed to, instead I saw him flying around, then to the summit where Miraak would be. Every time I used the bend will shout long distance, Sahrotaar would fly towards me, then turn around and go back to the summit without acknowledging me.
I turned on godmode so I could use the shout twice and when Sahrotaar was in sight, before he turned around, I used the shout and Sahrotaar landed. I got to ride him and he flew me to the summit, but when I got to Miraak there was no dialogue like there was supposed to be, and he was already attacking me and the dragon before I even got to get off.
I got off of Sahrotaar and was able to attack Miraak for a little bit, but the objective to "use "bend will" shout to tame Sahrotaar" did not go away, the quest pointer stayed on the dragon and Sahrotaar remained essential. I never got any objective past taming sahrotaar.

Details:
- Miraak inevitably would stay in etherial form
- The other two dragons that are supposed to be there never showed up
- I passed the part where storn was killed by Herma-Mora and Frea had given me the quest to find Miraak
- I looked everywhere for a solution and now I resort to this

Thank you for your time, this is really frustrating and I hope I don't have to start a new file all over (again)

Thanks I'll give it another shot :)

The only information that was close to what I'm experiencing is
Originally posted by uesp:
The quest may not have been entered into the journal, despite completing the prior quest. Use the console command setstage dlc2mq06 200 then walk around the locked gate to trigger the next objective and he should arrive.
But that wasn't really the case.

Once on the platform where you are supposed to tame Sahrotaar use this command setstage dlc2mq06 250
If that does not work, type in sqo What does it say about this quest? Use pageup / pagedown to read the info.
Impulsive Egg Oct 11, 2015 @ 4:50pm 
It didn't really work, Sahrotaar didn't land, so I used the sqo command and now I can't find anything about the quest I'm on,
cfs111 Oct 11, 2015 @ 5:05pm 
This quest does not show in your journal at all?
Impulsive Egg Oct 12, 2015 @ 6:50am 
It does show in my journal, but when I used sqo I wasn't able to find it
cfs111 Oct 12, 2015 @ 6:59am 
Wow, this is not good. You do have all 3 words of Bend will?

Use this command in the console sqt
Then search for quest dlc2mq06 dlc2mq05 dlc2mq03B .

ok thanks
cfs111 Oct 12, 2015 @ 7:04am 
Let me know what it says about those quests if anything. All is not lost yet.
Impulsive Egg Oct 12, 2015 @ 7:08am 
Found it for dlc2mq06 it says "target 1: reference: (0301FB99) load door: same cell/exterior"
cfs111 Oct 12, 2015 @ 7:37am 
Ok, here is what I see and what may work. For some reason the quest thinks you are past riding the dragon and should be fighting Miraak (0301FB99) now. But your journal is stuck on needing to ride the dragon. There are a couple of ways that may work, we will start with the least intrusive. Make sure to keep that backup save.
First, just teleport yourself to Miraak player.moveto 0301fb99
Second, coc DLC2ApocryphaEnd04
Third, movetoqt dlc2mq06

alrighty here I go
Impulsive Egg Oct 12, 2015 @ 7:51am 
Honestly, I'm not really sure where the last one was supposed to teleport me. I did the first one and it succesfully teleported me to Miraak. There was no dialogue, and there were no dragons. Then I did the second thing and it told me that my character was not carryable, so it put me back on the summit.

Miraak should be hostile when you get to him. He was when I setstaged my way to him. Are you sure you typed the second one correctly
coc dlc2apocryphaend04
Miraak should be there and turn hostile.

Also, redo the first one and when you get to him, click on him with your mouse and type in
resetai <enter>
disable <enter>
enable <enter>
Exit the console, see if he becomes hostile. If not whack him a few times with your sword or axe or etc.
