Stuck on the Trial of the Toy. Both "winning" and "failing" at the game results in quest failure. This one could do with a better hint, but I'll try to explore more thoroughbly before locking myself in.

 

Spoiler

I know what I need to do here (look whats in her hand) but cannot for the life of me find it. If it's outside the tower there should probably be a hint of some sort. The upper door to the tower is locked but the bottom one isn't so I'm hoping that's just an oversight and the item is just hidden in the tower really well.

I figured it out. It's actually really simple:

 

Spoiler

Look behind the chest in the room with the "fitted" toys. 

 

But a warning, there is a bug: 

Spoiler

I found that in this trial, some items tend to disappear, forcing a game restart.

 

Though I did not try to *not* put any items and see if we can progress

A new bug report, well, several actually:

 

Spoiler

On the second trial, any lockpicks we had, or picked up when getting free from the pole vanish. Any new ones I try to pick also vanish. Item disappering after picking up seems to be a recurring bug here, I noticed it with some past items. I had to pick up several and drop them while still restrained to the pole.

 

I am pretty sure what I have to do is set a lockpick against the cracked wall, but nothing happens.

 

Finally, while I noticed it was a timed challenge, the timer seems to ignore reloads, causing me to fail the quest sooner. This probably needs to be done in one single go.

Hello

I have an issue with textures.
The meshes of the collar and runes are appearing, but the textures are not working.
Also I suppose the Elf to  have  hair, but I can't see them either.
I'm playing LE, would it be the cause ?
Thanks for help !
 

Spoiler

 

Edit: Additionally,  I don't know what she put on me last, but the mesh is not appearing either

I stumbled around some more but I'm still stuck. I am almost convinced there is a bug.

Progress report:

 

I have completed the 

Spoiler

second and third trials, albeit with some cheating to figure out what to do. Even so, I could not figure how to get the embalming tool stuck, it just wouldn't, and on the third trial, I unmasked "Boethiah" but could not figure out how to avoid being mind-controlled, so I ended up setstaging my past that for now. I'm currently looking for Mephala.

 

And on that note, I found this: 

 

On a cave with locked doors close to 

Spoiler

the main mushroom

 As you can see, the borders aren't seamless. I have also yet to figure out what happens in this cave, but I'm sure that will happen eventually.

[Zaflis]

So i didn't get the piercings off on the first part and already forgot how to do it. Hints.txt says you can't remove them by yourself, also the daedric altar cannot be interacted with anymore. They were still on when the second part started and she was attempting to put standard piercings but failed.

 

Edit: Found clues in walkthrough https://www.loverslab.com/blogs/entry/18548-a-snare-to-loosen/

[alexsl]

Well for me i got stuck in the first room

 

Spoiler

as i had the falcon key then it told me if i could hang it somewhere i could use it to undo restraint (probably the hood). I did found the wall where the gargoyle is it does stated "you lounge the wall and eventually find and inded where you could hang something" tough i do not see  the indent, Holding the key in the air lounging the wall with it did not resolve in the key setting in place while being over the good spot so i'm kinda clueless about what to do.

 

[DayTri]

I was able to get past this by setting the stage of this quest to 13

[Zaflis]

So stuck in first room on the new content, also Jurgin is trying to get through the door all the time and triggering the popups as if it's a warning to me.

Spoiler

I have removed ear plugs and ropes, but piercings cannot be removed.

Also i do have Unforgiving Devices and playing on SE.

 

Edit: Solution

Spoiler

I thought i had already tried putting the items on table on... do put them on.

I figured out that you have to 

Spoiler

set the embalming tool on the cracked wall to then unlock the yoke that replaces the mittens.

However, I am having a bug where it would not register. It wouldn't get in no matter how much I swung it around. Ended up using a setstage command to get ahead of that.

[Viri1]

Also, if anyone finds

Spoiler

Mephala

Then please, let me know. I have the relevant hints on hand, but I'm apparently too incompetent.

I didn't see an embalming tool anywhere, did it spawn on the cell floor for you or how did you get one?

It is hard to see. But it's on the other side of the grate, on the floor. It might help get it in range if you use

Spoiler

That Pull ability you get at the Azura place

Spoiler

There is a wall for that next to the stool in starting room. Just poke "in the middle of it" about.

 

I'm stuck with alchemy part for now

Spoiler

It tells me to use the potions and bread to mix a brew but they don't do anything when i place them on top of the left pot. Right pot has round collision on top so nothing stays on it. Also there is no cooking recipe that would take potions as ingredients, bread is naturally not an alchemy ingredient so alchemy can't solve it... puzzling.

You are actually on the right thought process, but you need to look around for all the notes. They are deviously hidden.

Spoiler

I was trying to stack stuff on that pot for the longest time too. There's an actual "cooking" pot you can interact with, but probably need to find the notes if you haven't

 

[Viri1]

Possible Bug Report, but Progress!

 

After the longest time fumbling around trying to find

Spoiler

Mephala, I found out that dead end cave with some water actually has a transition to a cave, but you can't swim into it. I noticed that I was getting bounced up weirdly so I tried TCL and it worked. So, bug or did I miss a trigger?

 

 

Now I'm trying to figure out this

Spoiler

staff puzzle at the door. I believe I have all I need, and I assume this is an order puzzle, but I haven't figured it out yet.

 

I have the hint, but my interpretation of it is incorrect. But I can't think of any other order, gah!

I haven't found the 3rd note yet, been searching everywhere... But i did find

Spoiler

1, 2 and 4. Also the key for cuffs was so well hidden that even when i was hovering mouse on it all i saw was black. But hey ho worked...
