Larian Studios Forums Divine Divinity (English) Technical Problems Slasher Quest Animation Won't Complete! Help!

I read that the Slasher quest can hang if the large orc has nobody to test it on. Well, I didn't kill any orcs, they all sort of gathered in one corner, though. When I give the large orc Slasher, he moves towards a crossbowman, and then does nothing. The game is still active, and can be paused or I can exit out to the main menu, but the quest never completes.

Any ideas? Perhaps if I get some of the orcs in the corner to move, I can complete it. Otherwise, I think I'm out of luck.

Is it a big deal if I don't complete it? Will I lose particularly valuable XP or a reward? I assume that this will not stop me from completing any future quests, but am not sure. I'd hate to have to do the whole game over again to that point (since I have actually already completed the entire dungeon — I had to go back for slasher since I missed it the first time around), so I prefer to simply abandon the quest and keep the axe, if that's the way it goes. Slasher is a pretty nice piece as it is, and I am a warrior.

Oh, and I did try to attack those orcs, but I can't seem to be able to, since they are neutral towards me (perhaps there is some trick to attacking or moving them, like setting off a trap or some such thing). I must admit that I was thinking of completing the quest and then slaying them to get the axe back, if that's at all possible.

Recommendations? Please advise. Thanks.

I completed the Slasher quest, and was quite disappointed. I think it was about 6000 EXP. At the time, I could have done with the money for the axe more, so I'd advise you to keep the axe for personal use or sell it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

fow a low level character, 6k points of XP is a lot. personally slasher is good only for a while before u find a better weapon which fetches better price.

my 2 cents on the XP points.
