Apparently the Crucible thing is broken for me.

I reach Elsa at the Masonry but the says “It may take some time before this chamber will yield its secrets. History compels patience”

i have fallen embers, i killed the twins. I saw on youtube i should get to the altar and to the blood sacrifice but nothing happens

This is happening to me, too. ☹

It seemed like the tome you’re supposed to give her wanted to go into the bag that stores your runes, but mine was full. The tome fell on the ground when the apprentice mage gave it to me (instead of going into my inventory).

When I tried to pick it up, it ended up going to my “key items” (the last inventory tab) stash. I get the same “it may take some time” message as you, now.

For me the solution was to create a new realm and get to the same point, in that case the quest activated correctly. Not ideal but in the new realm you can go through mobs easily being over-leveled

Same problem here, I think we need to wait a fix.

At some point yesterday 4/24/2024 my crucible entrance (from masonry) is shut all the way, no NPC to talk to, and will not let me re-sacrifice blood to open.

I beat the Twins way earlier in the day, did some crucible, made it to like room 6 or so and died. Then decided to farm mats and other stuff in the other zones. I went back to masonry building near the end of the night wanting to do one more crucible run, and to my surprise, the main door to crucible area is fully shut and I have no way to open.

I loaded the earliest backup save, and it is still broke there too. I have tried full uninstall and reinstall, no luck there either. I have tried zoning in and out to other areas. Still the door remains shut. Not sure what else i can do, and dont really wanna start a new realm yet. I just made it to crucible end game ☹

I had Xfinity Internet outage throughout the day off and on, and STEAM would warm me about unable to sync data etc… Figured it would just catch all the cloud saves up once internet came back, maybe this was a factor? I am not sure.

I would suggest to create a new realm and rush to that quest. Being over-leveled makes things easier. The only issue is the crane might not rotate and once you get used to have the stairs you forget how you originally got into places

Go to realms and check if your realm has a backup savedata, reload an older save in wich you don’t have the tome, I was able to fix the glitch.

For me it worked at first and I was able to enter the dungeon.  
After Hotfix 4 however it stopped working and I can not interact with the statue anymore.  
Reverting saves also did not help.

I’d like to add that this happened to me too out of nowhere at the later stage, with the altar that controls the elevator

Yup, same thing here. Tried restarting the game multiple times, teleporting across the world, doing other stuff. Was fine couple of days ago, then I uninstalled and re-installed the game (+latest patch) and now its broken TT\_TT

A similar problem happened today. Fell behind the textures on the crucible elevator today. Resurrected several times behind the textures. I ended up in the water on the beach, and after that the crucible door was closed.
