Have you also tried it without mods?  
Just out of curiosity.

For what it’s worth, I’m finding the events spawn fine in my singleplayer game (including the taskmaster) with the following modlist -  
ModControlPanel  
Fashionist  
Savage Steel (Vol1)  
Arena Pier  
Emotes for Thralls  
Pythagoras Support Beams  
LBPR additional features  
LBPR  
Immersive Armor

But I did learn the other day that Emotes for thralls is somehow turning Beri from a tempersmith into a bladesmith - so maybe one of your other mods is similarly having an unexpected effect somewhere?

I was kind of wondering at the new Powerful Females might be messing it up, but I figure I should still report it. It _stopped_ working after 2.7 went live and something updated.

It would pretty thoroughly destroy my bases made with Ars Gothica Granite mod, so I’ve been super leery of trying that.

I found it safer to test by backing up the game.db so I could set everything back afterwards. Having to wait for multiple events might be a pain, but if you’ve got a good bet on what might be the culprit, could at least be worth trying without that?

Then tell me please if it were specific obelisks so I could try it on singleplayer.

Coordinates or “A-10” for example, I’m not fully aware of Siptah.

Okay the Event at C-9 (Sanctuary of the Serpent) did work. (twice)

(had some Fatal Errors after a while, so sorry for the delay.)

@arthurh3535 there it is, Vanilla got no issues.

Now go down your mod list and check what causes it, maybe one is outdated.

Remove “Emotes for Thralls”.  
At least for me it solves the problem.

Yes, I reported that issue to the modder a day or two ago once I identified the mod that was causing it 🙂

Personally, I’m still using the mod - I know other tempersmiths still exist out there (since I accidentally killed one while specifically looking for one - oops…), so I’m not too worried if Beri wants to be a bladesmith in my game, that’s fine. I only brought it up here to illustrate how sometimes mods can effect something I really wouldn’t expect them to. But if anyone is bothered by that change then removing Emotes for Thralls does indeed fix it 🙂
