Owlbear Cub Not Showing Up (SOLVED)

[HardyGal]

Had a glitch in one campaign where the Owlbear cub never showed up at the goblin camp, even after the interaction in the cave. Even went back and fought the mother myself to see if that would fix it, it didn't, no matter how many long rests I took. It was a shame, but I moved on in that playthrough.

I start a second campaign. Same thing happens. I deliberately try to follow the steps necessary to get the Owlbear cub to show up in a throw away THIRD campaign. Same thing.

I reinstalled the game, I cleared the cache, I verified the game file integrity, and tried again with the second campaign. Still no Owlbear cub. Maybe I just need to start from scratch with that particular campaign but I'm hoping that my game as a whole isn't just busted.

Any advice...?

[EDIT]
Found out what the issue was! Apparently if you teleport out of the cave after dealing with the mama (be it teleporting to camp or a waypoint), that messes something up with the encounter. If you WALK out of the cave, everything will play out as it should after a long rest - the mama will be killed by the gobbos (if she isn't already dead) and the baby will be at the goblin camp.

Are you running any mods? What have you done to try to get the Owlbear cub.

From memory, you need to activate the Quest by going into the cave and talking to the mother. Fight if you wish.
Then after a while, probably a long rest, go to the goblin camp and free the cub from the goblins... many ways to do that.
Then after a few more rests it will turn up to your camp. Be nice to it. It will run off and then later come back and stay.

Not running any mods. I should note that this is a recent issue, I have two other completed campaigns in which I got the owlbear cub using the same methods you just listed - met the cub and his mother in the cave (didn't end up killing her in either campaign), got to the goblin camp in the next long rest and saw the owlbear cub there, helped him escape, he showed up from time to time over the next few long rests until he finally stayed.

But for whatever reason, in my more recent campaigns, even after I have encountered the mother and the cub, the goblins never kill the mother and the cub never shows up at the goblin camp, even after several long rests.

No idea then. I picked up the Owl bear cub in my last run, with no issues.

Maybe you should start a new run, head to the owlbear cave asap and see what happens. If it still doesn't work, then just maybe you have a corrupted file in the game. but follow through this guide.
