What To Do When Another Player's Pawn Has Dragon's Plague????

[Grimalken]

If someone's pawn you hired does have the plague , is that only in your game?? Or when I dismissed the person's main pawn, does this mean that in that player's game, their pawn also has the plague? It would seem that if their pawn was acting weird, had glowing red eyes in my game, then it prob means the pawn has glowing eyes in the other player's game as well.

I hired an awesome pawn, but was forced to dismiss her because she had the plague. The pawn has being rude, so I stopped, looked into her eyes, and they were flashing red. I immediately dismissed the pawn, and sent a withered flower as the gift.

There is no way in-game to properly inform another player that their pawn HAS THE PLAGUE! How do you all think we should inform the player that their pawn has the plague?? I'm thinking we dismiss them, and give rotten meat as a gift.

If you are in the rift, and see a pawn with glowing eyes, then how can you inform the other player of this?

We could dismiss the pawn, then go into the rift,. Access the hiring menu and resummon the pawn. Then interact with them, click the "View Arisen Details" and "View Profile" and leave a comment on their Steam page. But not everyone allows for people to leave messages. Some players have locked their Steam page so you cannot leave them a comment.

Dismiss it. Throw your pawn into the deep.

Install a mod that cures it. It's not a 'feature' that needs to remain in the game.

I do this a lot now that I have access to the hot springs to cure all the scars. This method is the sure-fire way to be safe from the plague.

It's literally cured by giving them a brine bath, the game itself tells you such. When a pawn is dismissed or made forfeit then the plague passes from them. Of course, they can return to the rift through regular combat but if you're actively trying to cure them then just pitching them in a lake and re-hiring them before bed is all you have to do.

The nicest thing to do is keep the pawn until the plague shifts to your pawn, then throw your pawn in the water. After that, if they are high enough level, they can probably handle it and check for plague themselves, so just send them back.

If you just like curing plague, just throw them out rather than return them. It is the annoying thing that capcom added. We are apparently supposed to just throw away pawns more often than actually use them and dismiss them.

Capcom wants us to rely on them, but they also want us to hate them.

if you notice it right away, just dismiss it.

if you dont get the notice until you are on the road. off a cliff or into the brine it goes.

The game says we should toss the other player's infected pawn into the nearest brine? Where does it say that? I have not come across that, at least not that I recall.

I dismissed that infected pawn a few days ago. My pawn has never caught the plague yet. So at least as far as it goes, your main pawn will not catch the plague if you immediately dismiss a hired pawn who only has glowing eyes.

Keep in mind, if you yeet a hired pawn into the brine, or off a cliff to their death, then everything they have in their inventory goes back to their owner. So you could give them rotten food, and toss them.

The main thing I am trying to speak to in this thread, is I think we might want to help each other, by informing another player that their pawn has the plague?

as i know the items the pawn has, go to your storage. testet it with the noble outfit.
its a fine way to free inventory space if no storage is near. give evrything you want to stash to one pawn and trough him in the brine.

Make a video about how you beat the sh*t out of the other players pawn.
Post it on youtube.
Let everyone see what happens to their pawns if they don't take care of them.

When you hire an infected pawn :
- It will spread the plague immediately upon leaving the Rift
-- If you look at them fast enough, they also have like a red aura that disappears
--- Pawns that spread it are actually immediately cured themselves (tested thoroughly)

- At least 1 (if not the other 2) pawns will be infected in their place
-- Unfortunately tested this by renting 1 pawn with only my own
--- Infection will start without any real signs (took like a game day to start)

- Getting rid of it is simple; the pawn must become forfeit
-- The brine kills all - even the plague

- Signs are kinda hard to follow, my pawn is Calm for inclination which was a huge verbal difference
-- One common phrase they will utter is something to the effect of "My power knows no bounds!" or I actually got straight up insulted by mine "Nice Job!" (upon getting downed by a Rocky Boi)
-- They will hold their head as it gets farther along
-- Eyes (at least on the cat I rented) will become a magma orange/red color and sorta pulse (the VFX is quite bright on them if you can check them out at night).

It can also take a while to actually kick in - so I would recommend using a camp to sleep if you wanted to see the effects without losing NPCs. I made camp in the middle of the woods and only went back to town after getting rid of it from my main pawn.

I'll have to try that. I read somewhere that dismissing a hired pawn returns all items to your storage, and the items supposedly go to the owner if the pawn dies.

Come to think of it, after I dismissed that infected pawn my main pawn has died, and I had to summon him. So I was too bold to claim my pawn hadn't been infected. He may have been, but he died in the brine and was brought back.

Kinda sucks you have to throw a pawn in the brine. You can't send a gift or thumbs up the pawn at that point.
