I've seen a similar thread but my problem is farther into the game. I've just unlocked the armory, Zixzax stands outside it and says the usual line "I wonder what awaits you in the next chamber. I wonder what they'll say." I go into the armory, explore the place entirely, see no one to talk to, so I leave, but Zixzax is still standing near the portal saying the same thing. I leave the End of Time, use a blood stone, getting another star stone, go back to the End of Time, but no additional portals are opened and Zixzax won't talk to me, still saying the same line. I read in the other thread people had this problem and fixed it by killing him or teleporting him, I did both several times. If I KILL him I can talk to him but he won't move, and also won't open additional portals. Needless to say, this bug breaks the game. Anyone else experience this and manage to fix it?

I've verified the game data on steam, reinstalled the game, even booted back to an earlier save but still the same thing happens. If it's relevant at all, this happens after breaking the big bloodstone, completing the quest where the Homestead is under attack by demons.
I'm hesitant in progressing the story any further since unlocking all the homestead rooms is required to finish the game. Rather not waste time if my save is completely screwed.

5 star stones later and Zixzax is still in the same spot repeating the same line. The triggers that open the portals should really be changed from requiring Zixzax top let you through the portals to the portals just opening after acquiring a star stone.

How did you exit the chamber ? I have noticed that if you use the Rift Travel icon to teleport to the end of time it will not trigger Zixzax. You have to use the portal from the chamber.

Thank you Because I am having a variety of similar problems with the scripts/triggers, I downloaded this tool with the intention of generating and submitting a report of my own. Unfortunately the tool keeps locking up at 50% when trying to generate the report. The "Start Test" button works fine, and tests my system okay, but this tool won't generate reports for me. I let the tool run for 20 minutes, but it won't progress past this point. It also gives an Unhandled Exception Error when manually closing the program after it get stuck trying to generate a report. Is there perhaps a new version of the tool we should be using since there was a game update this morning/last night?

Unfortunately the tool keeps locking up at 50% when trying to generate the report. If you have a lot of saves, try waiting longer, or move most of them to another location temporarily, and see if the analysis tool will generate a report then. Each save is a folder in the '..\Documents\Larian Studios\Divinity Original Sin\PlayerProfiles\<ProfileName>\Savegames' folder. FWIW, I had no problem generating a report.zip file with the current analysis tool. I've only got about 65 saves in a couple profiles (My Documents D:OS folder is 1.3GB): the report took just under a minute to create (Core i5 3570K, 16GB RAM); time was only slightly faster running the program from an SSD (Windows) than an HHD (games), though it is reading off the SSD either case, so that isn't surprising.

I'm having this same issue. Zixzax hasn't opened any portals except the Hall of Heroes. I created a report but it's 300mb. How can I send that?
Is it possible to complete the game with this bug if it can't be fixed?

In the Hall of Heroes, did you talk to the spirit there, and take the portal back to the main area in the End of Time?
Double click the report.zip file to open it in Windows Explorer, go into the profile's savegames folder and delete most of the saves. In this case you'd probably want to keep the save just after getting the second star stone, the first after visiting the Hall of Heroes, maybe a couple after other star stones, and your latest save.

Hey,
Me and my friend playing coop are having a similar issue. We just opened Halls of Secrets, and Zixzax won't recognize that we entered it. We have like, 6-7 inert stones on the bags and he'll just stand there..
"WELL.. AREN'T YOU GOING TO LEAP THROUGH? WHO KNOWS WHAT WONDERS AWAITS YOU!"
We tried killing him, but he instantly respawned. All that achieved was we losing 10k gold to have him talk to us again.
Any thoughts? Or is our save screwed?

I don't know what I did the first time. If you return to the Hall of heroes, is there an NPC sitting at the dining table? Check the mini-map for green dots. If not, then you probably talked to her; return to the main section using the portal, and see if Zixzax reacts (should run over to the weaver, at least when you just have that room opened; don't know if you would need to exit and return to trigger the next portal).

I am having a similar issue. However, I have progressed past this point. I entered the hall of heroes, talked to everyone, and left, and Zixzax moved back to the front of the hall. My problem is that he doesn't do anything now. I have gone through most of the Cyseal map, picked up several stones, but nothing changes on the Homestead. I didn't ever click on the pyramid stone, and so I think this may be why I can't progress in the Homestead. Now when I click on it, I get transported to Cecelia's room, but she's just standing there ( no bath dialogue ) and the door is locked ( can't exit unless I use the stone/waypoint ). I've played on another save and at this point I should at least have the bedroom ( change looks ).

Having the same exact problem as Nerinna, nothing past the Hall of Secrets gets opened. Might have something to do with the scantily clad Source-Goddess-Lady not initiating dialogue with me when I enter, she just stands there staring. Can't talk to her at all, and the goblin keeps waiting on what we found inside the portal.

Hi everyone, My friend and I are playing co-op and we don't know what to do... we are lvl 20+ with a lots of quests accomplished etc. but we got only 1 elem room and zixzax is bugged " well who know what .... " in front of secret room. Activating blood, killing him, or teleport him. Nothing is working right now. We can"t talk to Astarté in the room but we don"t know if it's normal or not. 60H of game. We are stuck. ZixZax dont want to do anything.

Actually, started my game over, and it seems that not clicking on the pyramid had nothing to do with it. I think it was because I went through all of Cyseal without going to the homestead ( except for the hall of heroes, and talking to Astarte, so I could recruit fellas ). I collected many stones, but never went there until after defeating B Rex. Also strangely, after defeating him the purple lock on the chest in his room did not disappear, which I remember happening on another playthrough. Zixzax just sits at the front of the hall, and no more portals/storyline progression.

she just stands there staring. Can't talk to her at all Did you try with both main characters? If you talk to her with a weapon drawn, does that trigger a 'watch where you are waving that thing' type of response? Please email supportdos@larian.com, with a description of the problem and the report.zip file generated by the D:OS support tool (for the PC version). The report will contain system and game information, any crash dumps, and your saved games. If file size is an issue, any saves not related to the problem can be deleted.

My friend and I have over 60 hours in our game and we didn't really notice zixzax was bugged until it was way too late. Didn't get anything opened past the hall of secrets. We were able to complete the game by cheesing the entrance door to the source temple by throwing our pyramids over the wall, but I feel like we've missed out on some of the content.  I'm trying to remember but I think the cause may be what a gentleman said above, I don't think we ever went back to the end of time in cyseal, except for the mandatory one visit.

Is the spirit still in the hall of heroes (siting at the dining table, north side), and can you talk to her? Does Zixzax react if you return from the hall using the portal to the main room?

Ok. Originally I could not talk to her (probably due to camera angle) but talking to her partially unstuck things. I'm still stuck now. - I managed to unlock inner chamber and hall to [your element]. Now zix zax is standing next to an inert portal asking me to leap through that one but I can't since he forgot to enable it (in case it matters I chose fire and i did talk to daremos). I also did get the playback on the spirit character after unlocking the elemental chamber but before entering. - Ok I went to talk to daremos a second time and now i can go into hall of secrets. - There is a pattern here in that if zixzax moves you have to go back and talk to whoever in the previous chamber a second time. - Now he is standing in the middle of the room with the same 'i wonder what relates...' ok after a few tries there a scene kicked in (the one about two warriors). - same problem after the next portal; the problem is the trigger for the next scene stalls until we move in just the right direction - really glitchy. - ok after about two 1/2 hours of entering portals multiple times and approach zixzax from multiple angles i managed to unlock them all but one but the source door now opens so maybe that last one is for end of game ? - Anyways I can proceed now - thanks.

I have this. I cannot talk to Astarte no matter what I do. It started after I unlocked the air elemental hall. I ran straight towards the air elemental and saw Astarte. I expected her to speak but nothing happened. I thought nothing of it and carried on. I then needed zixzax for the distill my heart quest. However he just repeats tp jump into the new portal. Despite me going in there >15 times. I cannot speak to the goddess and it's completely stalled my current play through.
I don't mind bugs but game breaking ones...

So an update -
I killed ZixZax. I was then finally able to talk to him and do the distill quest. However he still randomly says aren't yo going to jump in. It just doesn't block me from talking to him.
I still cannot speak to the goddess no matter what I do. Intrestingly I cannot target her for teleport unlike zixzax.
I'm concerned when I get a new star stone the imp will not open a new portal. And I assume I need to speak to the goddess at some point but if shes stuck in the air elemental room....

Any updates on this? Stuck right after the Hall of Secrets opened.
Definitely caused by not going to the homestead after each recovered Star Stone.
*EDIT* Spent some time dealing with this. I was stuck after the Hall of Secrets was opened, and I was able to speak with the goddess there. I went into all the portals. Then I killed ZixZax. Killing him allowed me to talk to him again (he was stuck on vocal dialog, rather than an actual dialog menu).
Finally, I teleported him one last time. Left the end of time and returned using rift travel. Upon doing so, the statue in the middle re-activated and I could progress - for now.

So I used a blood stone to unlock a new room. Went to rift. Zixzax just stands there. I can talk to him fine but he just repeats about leaping through.
Astarte - Can attack though do 0 damage. Burning floors make her move but do no damage. Cannot target for teleport. Can target for pickpocket. No angle allows to talk to her.
I really like the game but massively disappointed that a game breaking bug (which clearly quite a few people have) could have slipped into release.

Now it's happened to me on a new playthrough, this time earlier than before, after activating the first elemental portal Zixzax bugs out and won't move/activate other portals. The process of opening portals really needs to change if this is happening to so many damn people.

Not that it is of any use, but I am stuck at exactly the same point as veldt described in their original post.
11 inert stones. Go into the portal and out, he still going on about talking to someone inside (not that there is anyone to talk to in the armoury!) Tried going back a few saves - still the same nonesense when I get to that point of the game. Tried smacking the git around a bit - no joy.
I really do not fancy restarting - particularly as veldt experienced it again.
The only thing unusual I have done is maybe triggered (and fought off) the attack on the homestead a little early.

I've just got the vial of whats-her-names blood and gone back to the sanctuary to speak to the white witch and i've only got the homestead and the hall of heroes open. I've not had anything else open since then?! I didn't realize this was a problem.
Doesn't really matter though as my games already broken as I didnt take the shady business deal quest from the dude in silverglen so I cant get +1 tenebrium weapons =/ (the skill book in Sacred Stone is also absent)

Please help. I am another one with the problem: At level 8, with 3 blood stones in possession, and no portal has opened. Nothing has opened. Not even the Hall of Heroes.
I also have the same problem as the user Kerzain (see his post on page 1 of this thread) when I try to generate a report using the Game Analysis Tool. His screenshot is exactly what I am seeing on my own screen, freezing at 50% even after 30 minutes. (My computer specs are different but they all "passed".)
Other players have mentioned, early in the game, making a decision in the doctor's office where they found a blood stone. I don't know if it's relevant but I never played that scenario. Does skipping it cause this problem, I wonder, even though my characters now have 3 other blood stones?
I am at a loss to continue playing or not.

Blood stones, or inert stones? There are some that are used automatically, and some which you can pick up and use later.
Can you talk to Zixzax? Does he have all the speech options he had when you first got to the End of Time?
Was he never at the entrance to the homestead when you teleporter there after finding (and using) the second star stone?
Skipping the clinic should not cause a problem. You will eventually catch up to Evelyn, if you haven't already, and she should still have the star stone on her.
In this case the problem is in the save itself, so you could just zip your latest save to email support.

Bumping this up. Been playing co-op with my friend for 40 hours now. We just finished Cyseal and went to homestead for the second time this far. We have 5 inert stones at the moment (which were all automaticly used) None of the portals have opened for us, not even homestead. Zixzax is just standing there and we have normal dialogs with him but we havent gotten him to open the portals.

Could it possibly be that you didn't talk to Evelyn in Cyseal and finish the quest where you have to choose which of the mortally wounded guys should be healed?
Just a thought. It shouldn't make a difference if you do that quest or not, but you know, "bugs and stuff".

Yes we did that quest as well. And later on we killed her in the cave.
Also worth noting is that the first time we noticed a notice/message popping up that something unlocked in homstead was somewhere around the end of Cyseal (killing braccus and leaving to silverglen). Then the teleport button also was flashing green. Thats when we went to homestead just to find out none of the portals have been opened.

So even the hall of heroes portal is not opened (up the stairs just south east of the weaver)?
Try loading a save in single player, and enter the End of Time, to see if that makes a difference.

You have to stop the attack on the End of Time before any more rooms will open. You need to destroy the big Bloodstone in Luculla (NE, area with cultists and demons past the area with spiders).

Yeah not even the hall of heroes portal is open. I started a singleplayer game now and played it until I got to homestead. Then helped Evelyn with the healing decision and it right away told me that a new room opened in homestead (Which didnt happen at this point in our co-op save). Went to homestead and now zixzax opened hall of heroes like he should. But it didnt fix the problem for our co-op save. From what I've understod, at some point this will stop us from progressing? We are now at the point where we just saved the white witch and she's at homestead as well but still no portals open.

Yes, eventually you'll hit a point where you will not be able to proceed, without either a patch to fix this, or somehow getting the update to trigger in the game for the hall of heroes.

I thought I had this bug too, I used a blood stone in Homestead, picked up the inert stone and went looking for Zixzax. He was standing in front of an inactive portal spouting his lines to enter it. I then ported out and back to Homestead and this time on arrival got the conversation with Zixzax wherein he reveals a bit more of your former past as a Guardian. Then he ran off to the previously inactive portal which was now active. Come to think of it, Zixzax always talks to you first about your past before activating a portal, for some reason in this particular instance he didn't. But it's all okay now.

In the case of the homestead being under attack, it is by design that no more portals open up. After that Zixzax should run from one location to the next, though, without you having to leave the End of Time and return.

he doesnt, and my game had ONLY hall of heroes opened, so it was obviously bugged.

If you sent it directly to me (raze@larian.com) I have not received anything (my mailbox was full for a couple hours earlier this evening, though, so I may not have gotten large email). If you sent it to support, there would be a delay before it would be forwarded to me. I do not have a developer build of the game, though, so if there is actually a problem in the save itself, I can not fix it (it will have to wait until next week when Larian gets back from vacation). Of the saves I've tried, though, several have been from when the homestead was under attack, or people just missed where Zixzax moved or checking the portal that was last opened.

I sent to support, but you fixed my first savegame sent, but it was a save from a old game. So I sent my actual savegame, hope you can fix it. Aslam

Well I triggered the attack on End of Time, where fireballs are raining down, still only Hall of Heroes open.
Am I fucked? My game progressed once the raining fireballs problem was dealth with. I had to waypoint out of end of time, and back again like 10 times, and lots of portals opened. This is a big bug, and needs to be fixed. In the case of the homestead being under attack, it is by design that no more portals open up. After that Zixzax should run from one location to the next, though, without you having to leave the End of Time and return.
Finally got far enough in the game that we stopped the homestead attack, and I'm happy to say that it fixed the bug  . Zixzax is now running around opening all the portals for us (finally)! So yay we can actually finish the game now. But still I hope this gets fixed. Naturally it would had been nice to access these portals earlier in the game  .

There is a workaround, if you are stuck at the door like me. Get a bunch of Tenebrium weapons and hack at the "your ascension is not yet complete" door. It appears to have about 60,000 HP, but it can, eventually, be destroyed by 'brute force' (ctrl-attack) Advice from the Codex:
Konjad said:
Equip a tenebrium weapon and beat the **** out of the doors, as I did. It takes a while (and you'd better have blacksmith skill or buy 20 weapons) but you can continue with the game afterwards.

So, I'm guessing PC Gamer, Eurogamer, and Rock Paper Shotgun hadn't made it to the point of the game where Zixzax literally F*CKS you in the A**. After putting hours into this game. I am now stuck because of this bug. Lovely.

I literally just made an account here to tell you that this bug has hit me too. The imp just stands there. Nothing happens after I leave the Armory.
I mean, it really is a great game and it's obvious a lot of work has been put into it.
I don't know why they aren't fixing this so fans can move on.

Did you talk to anyone in the armoury, and then use the portal to return to the main area in the End of Time? Did you try killing Zixzax, or teleporting him (as mentioned earlier in the topic)? That may reset his status and get him to continue opening portals. That wouldn't help if you didn't meet anyone in the armoury, though, or he was there but unresponsive. EDIT: that could help in D:OS, but is very unlikely to help in the EE. It is being worked on. This only started being reported as Larian left for a 2 week vacation after the first patch was released. There has already been one hotfix since they've been back and another patch is expected soon. Until it is fixed, you can email supportdos@larian.com, with a description of the problem and the report.zip file generated by the D:OS support tool (for the PC version). The report will contain system and game information, any crash dumps, and your saved games. To reduce file size, all but your latest save can be deleted from the zip.

No news? Same bug for me. I passed the door (destroy it), i almost finish the game (Final scene) but a another bug (no final fight) blocking me. I killed ZixZax a few times, i teleported him. But a least 4 portals are not open. I preordered the game, i'm disappointed. No way to finish the game, half of the story cinematic, and important rooms impossible to explore.

If it doesn't work in the recent update, please email supportdos@larian.com, with a description of the problem and the report.zip file generated by the D:OS support tool (for the PC version). The report will contain system and game information, as well as your saved games. To reduce the file size, all but your latest save can be deleted in the zip, and (if available) maybe leave the most recent working save and the oldest where new portals were not being opened (that should have been).

So I guess I've been affected by this, too?
I have twelve inert stones in my inventory, two regular bloodstones, and a bloodstone shard from the wounded mage quest. All of the portals except the one to the Forbidden Zone are now open, I've beaten back the fireballs attack, etc. When I activate any of the remaining three bloodstones, they give me XP, heal me and everything that goes with it, but I don't get the normal indication that a new portal was unlocked in the homestead (the teleporter symbol on the right is supposed to glow green), and indeed Zixzax doesn't react when I return. This happens regardless whether I am activating the bloodstones in the Homestead or elsewhere.
Any ideas?
EDIT: Isn't it weird that I have 12 inert stones but only 11 open portals?
EDIT2: Decided to return to the Source Temple and the door suddenly opened. The Forbidden Zone is still inaccessible from the Homestead, however. :-/

The Forbidden Zone portal can not be activated.
Don't forget about the observatory portal, opened with the first star stone.

It would require a game update, but it sounds like it should be fixable (though the proposed fix hasn't been implemented or tested yet).

I have answered all support email. Fixes that would require an update can take some time, especially when the console patches are in the process of being released and the Mac / Linux versions and a couple other things are approaching release.

Larian does not answer us on twitter, facebook, or by mail. We are disappointed because we really like Larian (we bought all the Divinity's games and backed up Divinity OS 2). They just retweet what they like.

It should be fixed in the next update, but there is no ETA for that yet.
EDIT: a fix for existing saves was made a week ago, so I removed the 'hopefully' from the reply above, and the comment that a couple of the programmers were discussing the case for existing saves.

I do not know if this will help, but ill leave this here anyways. This bugg seems to have been in the game without a fix for a very long time, which is unacceptable BTW!!
Me and my freind played through the game swimmingly, untill we got to the door of the source temple. we didnt have all the inherit stones so we gathered 14 and thought this would be enough. ofc we didnt get through, and after some googling we found out that its the homestead portals that triggers it. Problem is, zixzax is just standing there, telling us to jump into the portal and see whats inside. we have all the portals in the homstead except two. The last one we unlocked was either the trading emporium or the armory. either way we are stuck.
I just can't grasp how such a huge gamebreaking bugg is still left unattended to. There are apperantly loads of people having trouble with this, and it leaves me with a taste of disgust towards a game that i would outherwise love to death.

This topic was started for the original release, and includes a lot of issues with people not having ended the attack on the homestead, or gone through the last opened portal, etc. The issue in the EE is new, and will be fixed in the next update.

I mean its hard for me to imagine that a studio could release a enhanced edition with a bug that takes this long to fix. Its just as bad as releasing an unfinished game.

Did you enter the last opened portal and get a cotscene conversation with Astarte or the demon, and then return to the main section of the homestead, with a main character in the lead?
When a portal is completely opened, a marker is added to the map, so check the portal that is active but doesn't have a map marker.

I seem to be still experiencing this issue in the latest Steam release version of the Enhanced Edition. Screenshot: http://images.akamai.steamuserconte...BD1517572DABC9C6D8C6567C761A4CB67411BE1/As you can see, I've got enough star stones to unlock more rooms, but only the Hall of Heroes has unlocked, and ZixZax is stuck there telling me about all the wonderful things that might await me. I admit I'm kinda surprised to see a game-breaking bug like this still present two years after the game's release date >_<.

Enter the Hall of Heroes, and talk to the NPC seated at the table about half way down. After that, return to the main section of the homestead through the portal, with a main character in the lead. If you already talked to the NPC, just enter and leave the hall with a main charcter as leader, in order to trigger a comment when returning.

Ok, that worked. That's. . very strange, because I'd been in an out of the hall of heroes repeatedly before and hadn't seen her sitting there! I even found the Hahneman's Axe. . .maybe it's because I had alt down to find items and that obscured her.
Thanks for the pointer.

By first portal, do you mean the Hall of Heroes? Quoting my reply just above: Enter the Hall of Heroes, and talk to the NPC seated at the table about half way down. After that, return to the main section of the homestead through the portal, with a main character in the lead. If you already talked to the NPC, just enter and leave the hall with a main charcter as leader, in order to trigger a comment when returning.
If you meant the observatory portal, where you first unlock the homestead, head to the portal to the right just before getting to the weaver, where Zixzax will presumably be standing if you've triggered a second star stone or used a second blood stone.

I can't believe that in 2025 I'm still experiencing the same problem. After many hours of gameplay and at least 14 activated stones, I chose the third elemental room and Zixsax doesn't recognize that I entered it, the elemental room marker isn't added to the map and there's simply no progress for me. I've already done all the other active quests, all the tricks with death, teleportation, entering and exiting, and nothing... My heart is completely broken, I just wanted to be able to finish the game.

This game is still broken on Jan 15 2026. I noticed the portals stopped opening with each bloodstone I used or every star stone I found but didn't think anything of it till the end when I got to the source temple. The game is broken. There's no lady to talk to in the Hall of Heroes, there's no other portals I haven't visited, there's nothing. Zixzax won't talk about anything nor meet me when I find a new one, just fireballs coming down at the end of time constantly. The last thing I opened was the hall of frost. I've come all this fucking way. What a huge fucking let down I am pissed off.
