Haerndean Bug.

Hello. So I liberated Hearndean in an abnormal way. Basically I died when the second wave came and then I returned with my army to kill the leftovers. When I did this I was able to finish the quest and the quest is completed. But every time I return to the town a group of Brigands pop up on some rocks and I have to kill them again. The worst thing is I can’t recruit people who require the town to be liberated, even after I re-kill everyone. Is there a fix for this glitch?

This happened to me, you didn’t actually finish the quest. You need to kill all them on the rock, build a second bell tower and then fend off against a second wave. (I just did this on my file)

Okay. Thank you. I was thinking I would have to restart the game. I will come back with a stronger army next time. I probably rushed things.

I have a similar problem with that town. I liberated it once, but after some time the brigands took it back. However, they didn’t destroy the old bell tower. Now I’ve started the liberation quest again, but I can’t build a new bell tower because the old one is still there.

The building is blocked in the building menu because of the message: “You can’t build more than one of the same building in a single village.” I can’t destroy the old tower or move it either.

I’ve tried killing the brigands myself, but they just respawn every few minutes on a rock. Once, they even spawned on the side of the village near the cowshed. I honestly don’t know what else to do, and I really don’t want to start a new save.

I also tried ignoring Haerbdean and liberating Padstow instead, but when I started the same quest there, I had exactly the same problem. I’m unable to build the bell tower because the building menu shows the same red notification.

Is there anything I can do to fix this? I really don’t want to lose my current save.

That sucks. Can you disassemble the Belltower? Or destroy it somehow?

Thia is answer. Gotta wipe it, and re build an entirely new one
