Larian Studios Forums Divinity II The Dragon Knight Saga / Flames of Vengeance (English) Help/Tips/Tricks inactive portal at simeons in orobars fjord

hi,
im in orobars fjord for some time now and i think i ve completed everything i can do outside the barrier. (depleted ore mine, sinister cave, waterfall-ancient tree, killed the blackring guys, talked to the girl that wants to find some tomb, etc.)
BUT THIS STUPID TELEPORT WONT GO ACTIVE!! i read every thread in this and other forums about this topic but it seems as if for everyone else this teleport at simeons is active as soon as the get there.
(I dont have to malachite gems to give to him, but according to what i read they are pretty rare and therefore they shouldnt be required should they?)
If im missing something or prove myself stupid in some other way or if you got any idea how to proceed plz help!!

Thanks alot

The teleporter by Simeon will become active after the barrier is lowered. The one you need to get over to the bunker is on a ledge on the island in the middle of the channel, directly above where the left nest tower is/was (when approaching the cliff) in the line of defenses under the bunker.

There are 2 malachite veins in the depleted ore mine, one on the ground where you find the red/blue/dark books on pedestals, one on the wall there above a ledge that you need to turn around to see. If you save before getting too close or running your crosshairs over them, you can reload until you get a gem (1 or 2 are relatively easy to get, 3 can be had with a bit of patience or luck, and 4 are possible but quite rare).


Welcome to the forum.

Yay - I too was stuck on this bit, but I will try this tonight. Hopefully it will work and I can carry on.

Thanks!
