I'm at the end of chapter 1 and I'm finishing up my henchmen quests. I got the quests from all the henchmen at one time (asking one to join, then removing them), then went out and found all there items. Now someone of them won't talk to me. Why?
Tomi, Daelan, and Boddyknock will still talk and join me, but Sharwyn, Grimgnaw, and Linu all say "I serve another master now, there's nothing more I can do for you." Is this a bug? Or am I supposed to not be able to talk to them anymore? Is there any way to make them talk so I can finish the quests? Right now I'm a level 6 Ranger, Chaotic (15) Good (100). I attacked some of the townspeople and got down to Neutral (50), thinking it might have to do with my alignment, but it still didn't work. [edit] I'm running the 1.62 patch, with both expansions and no mods or other add-ons. Any ideas? Also, in one of the threads I read that after Chapter 1 I won't be able to come back to the city. Am I stuck with one henchman, whoever I finish with, or do they all relocate to the next place? Thanks. [edit again] Is there anything I can do with the Fire Beetle's Bellies and Skeleton's Knuckle other than sell them? [ 05-16-2004, 12:08 AM: Message edited by: Halbarad1891 ] |

They relocate, and you'll find a use for those bellies and knuckles in the next chapter.

Thanks for the info!
I figured out my other problem. I think it has to do with the way I removed them from my party. When I removed the henchmen I just selected "remove from party" from the radial menu, I never talked to them and asked them to leave. So when I ask them to join with me again, they think they're already a member of a (my) party, so they say they've got another master. Must just be a glitch in the scripting or something. Weird.

Does that mean you were unable to compleate their quests in chap 1? if so that muct be a shame, you must get some good powerful items from them!

Turns out I was wrong above.
I *didn't* finish the quests, but I *could* have. When I couldn't figure out how to get them to talk to me I just started over (I didn't really like my Ranger anyways). While messing around with my new Rouge I figured the above out. Last night it happened again, a henchman wouldn't rejoin my party, and I had removed him by talking to him... so that ruled out my above statement. What it turns out to be is: When you first ask a henchman to join you, they give you something (a gem, a piece of paper, a feather...). If you remove them from your party, the only way they will rejoin you is if you have this item in your inventory. --I had put them in my stash to free up inventory space. So that's why they wouldn't talk to me. So I could have finished the quests with my Ranger, if i had know what was wrong. But I'm much happier with my Rouge, so it all worked out.
