Cannot Progress in Forgotten Depths: Unearthed Crypt

This is likely a map algorithm issue, but the Unearthed Crypt stage of the Forgotten Depths dungeon generated for me in an incompletable state. I am on the Free the Prisoners step, and it’s asking for 6 prisoners. I rescued 5, but there is no 6th prisoner; I have now re-run the entire map 3x to be sure. A barrier with no interaction is blocking me from accessing the rest of the map. Presumably the final prisoner is past the barrier, and the barrier will not lower until that prisoner is found. I am only speculating on the cause, but the dungeon is definitely gated and I cannot complete it.

+1. Same here. Cleared the dungeon. Ran across it again to make sure I didn’t skip one. Verified no last prisoner.

Same. Can’t find the 6th prisoner and instead found an object that can be carried on your back.

Edit, the object is a Defaced Shrine Cap.
I found the Defaced Shrine Base. It became a proper shrine after placing the Cap on and it gave me a buff. Other than that still no sight of the 6th prisoner.

Update: Restarted the dungeon. And instead of clearing the mobs while I venture through the dungeon, I ran around locating all 6 prisoners first, and then started clearing the mobs. I am able to proceed to the next phase of the dungeon this time.

Same issue here as well. I ended up changing world tier down and back up again to reset the dungeon (not sure if there is a faster way to do this). When I loaded back into the reset dungeon the layout was different.

The first layout as soon as I came in I was forced to take a left (NW). The barrier to the next stage was at the end of this single hallway (NW corner of available map). But there were also branches going off of this long hallway going to the NE and SE. When I reset the dungeon I had the option to go left (NW) or right (SE) at the entrance. It appears that the original layout has an issue where it can spawn a prisoner somewhere past the barrier, would be my guess. Thankfully I wasn’t doing a Nightmare dungeon.

Just happened to me too as qell super annoying wasting 20 minutes double check and clearing the dungeon lol

I had the same issue. This solution worked for me too. Resetted the dungeon, but same layout as before (just one path to NW). Ran through it to spot all locations of prisoners (full 6 on map displayed). Then cleared mobs on rooms with prisoners only to free them. This worked for me and I was able to proceed to next stage of map and to clear ist. But super annoying >.>

Same here. Ran through the first level again. Looked everywhere (mini map and area itself to check for prisoners unmarked on the mini map).
Nope. No prisoner.

Guess I’ll visit another dungeon for points then.

Same issue, no way through barrier

same issue, can’t find the last one

+1 - Just happened to me.

wasted around 1 hour for this dungeon to find the last prisoner… super annoying

Same issue here please fix it

SERIOUSLY… Blizzard should highlite them when the dungeon map is all discover… made all room onw by one like 3 time…

Just happened to me right now, this is stupid. Was a grim favor dungeon too.

Same here, what makes it more annoying is running on a phat drood :smiley:

Same issue today, same dungeon, missing 1 prisoner. I’ve rescued 5/6, and double checked the entire place, there is nothing left. What do.

Same issue here. Freed 5 prisoners. Explored all of the map I can access, and cannot find a 6th. Presumably it is past the fog barrier that I cannot get past without freeing said prisoner. Feels like a bug.

Bump… still an issue
