Before the update hit, I could freely move through the Thread Market area, to pick up anything that was missed during the mission to rescue the Thread leader.
After the patch however, there are now people blocking both stairways leading up to the upper level of the market, making it impossible to pass.
Yes!! All I want to know is what's behind the door I can now apparently unlock north of the Thread Market
Ugh, yes, I am running into this issue now. I thought I was missing something, but disappointed to find that this is a bug and now I can't 100% Dock Town. I'm sitting on 96% right now because of this one area that I'm now blocked from getting to. I checked for any no-clip mods so I can just run past the NPCs, but doesn't look like anyone made one yet. ;-;
I'm having this same problem! Begging for a fix since it's stupid that you can't get past these people and revisit the area.
I'm having the same issue. I wasn't sure if it had to do with the dragon attack
It is not related to the dragon attack. This is the save I made on the original patch, and played through the game, saving Dock Town from the dragon.
I could freely move through this area before the patch hit, going up to the upper level, and into the arena where you fought the Venatori. And some of my friends were also having the same issue with their first saves, where they have already done the mission to free the Threads' leader before the patch, only to come back later, and see the stairs blocked off.
Me too. I can’t complete the Heart of Corruption quest because I can’t go up the stairs. Unless I’m wrong and you don’t need to go up there to complete it 😅. So frustrating.
Was any fix found for this? How do you get north of the thread market if you can't get past these people?
Has there been any word on this you should not be locked out of completing a all chests in open world areas its my last chest and its being completly blocked by those three douchbags.
i'm playing right now and both paths leading to the next are area still blocked...
This was added after the first patch. I think it was intentional on the part of the devs. That area was likely to be a "one off" area where you can visit it only once and never return. Since they made it part of the main Minrathous map rather than its own little sub-map, they need to put a physical barrier there to stop people from returning.
seems like an oversight because there's a chest in that area that i don't think was available at the time, meaning it can never be available.
Yeah, if there's something you can only get at one specific point in the entire game during a specific encounter, it would be nice if the devs would have added some of that VO your party members do to clue you in (e.g., "we should look around"). Or maybe put up a barrier where you can't leave the area the normal way at first and are forced to try and go out the back way and clear it before you can leave out the front. It's very frustrating for this type of game to put in an area that can only be accessed once ever and not have any clues or guardrails to make sure you don't miss it. Us completionists are crying rn.
