Keeper guard fix

[Blue And Yellow]

This is for the people encountering a ''bug'' in which the keeper guard wont talk to you.

it's not really a bug just kinda weird. If you teleport to town upon exiting the Keeper's vault you will lose the old man thats following you in the process, which leads to said ''bug''

The way to fix it is to run back to the entrance (exit) of Keepers Vault where the old man will be waiting for you, once you find him you can continue the quest and talk to the keeper.

and if you are stuck without a main quest when they say the need to find someone just reload the game because then it didn`t take you to act 2 dont know why it left me in the first city without any pointers

It's definitely a bug. Teleporting is not an abnormal thing, it's an intended feature and thus has to be dealt with in every situation requiring special triggers or conditions, for example switching zones or executing actions or passing a specific border in a zone. Obviously the solution (as in other games) would be for the old man to spawn again wherever you re-enter any of the out-of-hub zones either by teleporting back or walking, since the quest step assumes that he is with you at this point of the quest.

didnt really give it that much of a thought tbh, but yeah, it should work properly and you shouldnt pointlessly backtrack, still, its not really that big of a deal

After patch 1.0.1 it still might not work with this fix. At least with a steam deck or controller. To make it work. Have the old man standing there and click or use touch screen on quest marker guy and it will work. It needs a mouse click.

This did not work for me, i went back to the exit, went back to get him and no result

[Magnusliarti]

same thing happened to me. i knew the supposed fix for balthas but it did not work "edit tested the fix up above by cosmo 394 and it worked for me " apparently it is like cosmo was saying if using a controller and encountering this bug use your mouse to get balthas to the area then move around with your mouse until event occurs weird bug

Awesome, thank you. I was using a controller but seconds after clicking around with the mouse the animation with Balthas being carried off started and after that I was able to speak to the guard
