Wall of iron ore blocks Knifepoint Ridge

Daedric questsQuest-breakingWorkaround

What happens

Entering Knifepoint Ridge, a wall of iron ore veins blocks the way to the remaining bandits and the champion.

PS5-safe fix

Look at the bottom-right corner of the ore wall for a corundum vein and mine it; the animation pulls you through. Cancel the animation before the vein empties, and finish everything before walking back, because the wall reappears.

Prevention

Avoid clearing Knifepoint Ridge before this quest.

Always make a hard save before trying a fix.
