Hi all, I cannot find anything about this problem on the X Box platform, although it is briefly mentioned in the PC platform forum, but that doesn't help me! (And this issue was not remedied on there anyway.)
So - [X Box 1TB] [Disc] & The problem has occurred twice now - I think I may have resolved it by saving the game and reloading last time, but this time that is definitely not working, however that may be a trick of memory and I may have not sorted it out and just left it, but mis-remembered my go-to method of bug handling working on that occasion as it has on many others (my memory is shockingly bad due to the meds I have to take for an incurable illness).
The problem in a nutshell: I cannot proceed with the quest "The Witchers' Forge" because the Earth Elemental has spawned behind the wall/secret door which opens when Geralt kills the monster and places the book on the altar. I have the book, I spotted a dead wolf on the way in and Geralt says something like, "Died while chasing something, or running for its' life...", and I found a whole pack's worth of dead wolves up against the wall and was able to loot their Fresh Meat, Livers, Dog Tallow, and a Wolf Hide, so I'm guessing they met their end at the clublike fists of the Elemental in question. I found either some Orens or a piece of Silk to loot on the altar (I forget which
) but that hasn't had any effect on the Elemental, like bringing her/him out, for e.g. I have tried using Aard and Igni while standing against the wall so the effect of the sign goes through it into the space beyond, but all that happened was the Elemental roared, again s/he didn't come out. So I'm stuck: please help!
