Can't command companions to perform special actions

Hi,

not sure what happened, but ever since I got the dagger that was supposed to help me perform special actions even without companions in my current party, those actions are not working even when I have them in party.

Bellara isn't activating any crystals, no matter whether she's in my active party or not (tried those in the Crossroads). And I can't get Lucanis to open the bridge in his recruitment mission. Which basically makes me stuck on the quest without any possibility to progress further.

I press tab, it opens menu, it says Lucanis can use this, I select it - it lights up with checkmark. I exit the menu. And that's it. Nothing happens, Lucanis doesn't proceed to do anything.

Already tried to load earlier saves, quit the game to desktop. Still the same issue.

Any ideas what to do?

Thank you.

  • Just an update, not sure what helped. Whether turning my PC off completely or then verifying game files. But it works now for Lucanis. So no longer stuck.

  • And it stopped working again, in the same mission. The second time I have to command Lucanis to make a bridge and he's not responding. No idea what's happening there.

  • And this time neither PC restart nor verifying game files helped. So yeah, still stuck on the same quest.

  • Another update, sorry for the spam. It just seems like it works randomly. On the tenth try he finally opened the bridge. Then the one after that took several tries to command him again too. So I guess if you encounter something like this, just keep trying. One of those tries might just work.

      Make sure you are hitting tab again to exit the menu not the ESC button. That's what happened with me until I realized what was going on. It doesn't really tell you that hitting ESC instead of tab again will cancel all commands.
