I cannot seem to complete Temple of Rot Stronghold in Diablo 4. I have cleared the whole area and run around it lots of times, but the final gate to the remaining cannibals isnt opening or responding. The game says i need to kill all cannibal champions but despite going round and round the map multiple times, there is nothing left to kill. I’ve tried clicking on everything clickable such as dead bodies, pots, prisoners, shrines, etc. The final gate isnt interactive at all. No mouse-over messages etc. Happened just now via PC (Windows)
Root strongholds are set up in stages.
Stage one – choose two 'bane/boon" options to open the first area. This can add some roots to the area you need to click on to release the headrotten once all roots are uprooted proceed to…
Stage two – chose one more “bane/boon” option to open the next area. Again, another root can be added. Click on all the roots to release the monsters and kill them. Proceed to…
Stage three – in the final area is one last root. Clicking on this will reveal a “strong” headrotten which could drop one of the prized Fugitive Heads for crafting seasonal gems.
Which stage are/were you stuck on?
I assume they mean the “stonghold” and not the “roothold?” Assuming so:
I thought the doors opened before way back more normally so not sure if this is intentional or not, but the “front”(SE) door to the more central room does not open for me these days, and yet I can complete this SH fine. That door not opening channels you around and you can go though the smelly dead worm room, and then fight in the “side” door to the target there.
I have done that SH several times in the last few weeks like this, so should be doable for you also, though I can’t guarantee you are encountering the exact same issue. If you somehow have no avenue into that more central room then I don’t know.
