Note: If you are using Ashita or Windower, it is recommended to disable any addons or options that adjust framerate such as FastCS or running at 60FPS. It has been known to cause this cutscene to freeze. If running at 60 FPS, you may also type //config FrameRateDivisor 2 at the moment the cutscene freezes to allow it to continue before using //config FrameRateDivisor 1 to return it to 60 FPS. (Hitting PrintScreen key when the scene is freezing, can also help it continue)

Walkthrough

  • In Sauromugue Champaign (S), examine the Bulwark Gate at (E-6)/(F-6) for a cutscene to receive the Key ItemUnderpass hatch key and to complete the mission.
    • The Campaign Arbiter warp from your allied nation will teleport you to a fairly close location. Mount up and ride north and west to reach the location.
    • Taking the Survival Guide warp to Rolanberry Fields in the present time and entering the Voidwatch passage to the past (which is right next to survival guide) will also bring you very close to the gate needed.
    • You are given a dialogue choice during the cutscene. The second option gives a small optional bit of text but you must choose the first to progress.
    • Depending on your progress in the Voidwatch quest line, you may get a brief cutscene with the Jeunoan leader. Examine the Bulwark Gate again to continue with the Wings of the Goddess mission.
