Barcus Wroot Glitch

[Softblue]

I went and rescued Wulbren, but Barcus wont leave my camp. When I talk to him he tells me I still need to rescue Wulbren. The quest says Talk to Barcus Wroot, but also says that Wulbren is at the Last Light.

When I go to Last Light, Wulbren is there, and one of my dialogue options is to say that Barcus is right around the corner, but hes not there at all.

Anyone know a fix to this?

Are you running with any Mods?

And what happens when you tell Wulbren that he is right around the corner?

go back and choose the other lever on the windmill.

Hi. I'm not using any mods. When I tell Wulbren that Barcus is there, he just says something like "Oh, I'll get to that soon."

Kill one or both of them. Wulbren is a swine. Do not trust him.

Ahh. Did you convince him to join your Camp? As a permanent resident?

If you did recruit him, go to Camp and put one of your followers out of your party. See if you can add Barcus. If you can, take him to the Inn. I bet the quest will complete. Then, you can take him back to Camp and get your regular party member.

I do have him in my camp but there is no option to recruit him into my party when I interact with him (even if I am down one party member).

Barcus is not able to be added to a party. He can become only a "camp follower" who does not join the party on adventures. (There are several camp followers that can be acquired along the way.)

Once Barcus was convinced to join the camp from Grymforge, he should immediately appear at LLI when arriving at the LLI regardless of Wulbren's status. He'll be walking around by where His Majesty sleeps (and sometimes "arguing"? with His Majesty). From the front entrance, that's just behind the wall to the immediate left where there are some bookshelves and a desk (and a cushion where His Majesty sleeps).

You'll need to tell Barcus that Wulbren's been saved for the Ironhand's optional side-story to progress. It should not be required to continue the Ironhand story in Act III, but if Barcus is not at LLI, something's wrong and the story might not progress.

Even after Wulbren dismisses Barcus at LLI, Barcus is still found there until after dealing with Ketheric which is when Wulbren and Barcus move to Moonrise and Barcus has some important things to say about Wulbren while Wulbren's attitude has changed towards the main character but he is also ignoring Barcus altogether.
