Hi all , new to the forum.
Seems I have done some thing wrong in the passage. In short, entered through the western entrance to get to the generator, killed the generator, fought and killed the two summoned mosquitoes, up the ramp to the next teleporter, into that passage, fight and kill all in there, take the four sigil stones and disable the teleporter that is spawning the 'soldiers' one at a time. After that all is quiet in there, but none of the teleporters now work to let me out, or is there some trick to this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Have a good one DA

Its sounds like you are in Stone's headquarters now, correct? After defeating him once you should be able to follow him to an arena for another confrontation.
Try emailing support@larian.com, with a description of the problem, and maybe a link to this topic. You didn't mention Stone, so it is possible you may have run into a bug that can result in missing bosses; this problem is fixed in the second patch, but if it had already occurred in your save you will need to email it to Larian to get it fixed.
BTW, if you have a save before picking up those 4 stones and disabling the generator you may want to reload it. There is a fifth stone in the arena, and you need to use all of them at once to get a minor reward.

Hi Raze, thanks for the reply.
First up I had better say that this is my first play through so I am pretty much clueless as to where I am exactly, I would not have a clue if it is his H.Q or not. The games is very much lacking in letting you know exactly where you are. Actually, there seems to, be very little info on the net for this game, which surprises me because it seems like a very good game at this stage. I did pick up a FAQ/Walkthrough by seorin, but it does not go into the nitty gritty, and one at gamepressure.com, but that one only seems to be maps, which is a big help anyway, other than, zilch.
Back to where I was. As I have not played it for about a week now, some of the names evade me. But as I said, I came through the first passage from the west, this gets you to the shield generator that you have to take out so you can fly as a dragon. But when you enter that walled in area where the shield generator is you have a cut scene and a verbal with Stones wizard, or I thought it was his wizard, (forgot his name), who calls in/summons up a couple of his friends who you then have to defeat as a dragon. Once that is done, it is up the ramp/path to another small walled in enclosure which has a teleporter there and you then go into another passage, or what I would call a passage anyway. When you first enter this one, straight ahead and directly opposite you is a teleporter that does not work. So it is down a few steps and turn left, from then on it is a full on brawl, and quite busy, no time for intros and writing down names, so I have no idea who I was fighting, too busy staying alive. Right at the end is this teleporter spitting out 'enemies' one at a time, and in front of it are four sigil stones on stands, two on the left and two on the right. I stood there for about five minutes killing them as they appeared, for zero XP as I noticed, and by accident I noticed that you could interact with the stones, so figured out what to do after a while. Once I had disabled that one, of course I could not use it, and I could not get out the one I came in, and the other one opposite still does not work, that is where I am now, stuck there.
A couple of quick questions if you don't mind. Where is this arena you refer to, to me an arena is a large circular, square, or rectangle area, usually walled or fenced in with seating and so on. The only area that I have seen here that even vaugly resembles an arena is the area where you have to destroy the shield generator.
Patch 2, what patch 2, could you point me to the patch please.
Once again, may thanks for your time and help.

The location is listed in the saved game list, so you can hit 'load' and check what it says (then cancel out of that menu). You'd think it would be listed on the map... if you are outside in the fortress, moving the cursor over the doorway markers on the map will list 'exit', 'greenery', 'inner passage' or 'headquarters', but inside the headquarters (this map) both exits are just marked 'exit' (the northern one is from outside, the southern leads to the arena). Xanlosch was the name of Stone's necromancer. At least in D2:ED, if you had not taken dragon form during that fight you would not have needed to take out the summoned creatures; after defeating the necromancer and his creature in human form you could have destroyed the generator then and taken flight without incident (that may have been changed in DKS). When you first enter this one, straight ahead and directly opposite you is a teleporter that does not work.Here's your problem. You are in fact in the headquarters, but if the teleporter was the first thing you noticed, then that implies Stone was not there to greet you. That teleporter, leading to the arena, is likely disabled until Stone goes through, to prevent you from entering the arena too early, but if Stone was missing it wouldn't have been enabled. So it is down a few steps and turn left, from then on it is a full on brawl, and quite busy, no time for intros and writing down namesDo you remember a cutscene conversation, or was it straight into the fight? There should have been a conversation with Stone (triggered coming down the stairs, IIRC). Email Larian with the save; hopefully they will fix it and get it back tomorrow (it is evening there now), so you'll have it back before the weekend. On the PC, the patch can be downloaded here. Last I heard the Xbox patch was still being tested.

Seems I am certainly in the H.Q, rather small for a H.Q. No, there was not a cut scene when I entered the H.Q, or at any time in the H.Q, seems then I have the bug. But this is the first Boss that has been missing so far.
Thank you for the patch link, will get the save fixed and carry on.
Once again, many thanks for your help.
