Any way to spawn in companions?

[ᛁᛖᛊᚢᛊ ᚨᚱ ᚷᚢᛞ]

I am pretty tired of running around the map to every major city for a 5-10% chance of finding a companion.

Um... that isnt the rate at which you find wanderers. Its more like 85% Or maybe you are using a mod that broke your game.

Also, you can just press N, select a wanderer and see what town they are in.

Maybe you have an attitude problem, assuming that mods are the source of all problems?

Its simple statistics. 95% of the problems people come here to complain about are from mods. So its safe to assume every new topic is about mods.

You can assume your head off all you want, I have been playing since this game came out and since then it's been a problem with a constant lack of companions.

In warband it was excusable because all companions were special and had their own stories.

But in this game they are randomized which should make them more numerous but nooo..

Maybe you can play the game and camp in a city tavern for 16 hours a day. I don't have that luxary.

Why would you assume that after I just told you how to find wanderers? Honestly..

Then your save game is broken. Either by mods or by playing an old save in a newer version. Or both.

Probably a bug, plenty of bugs around that has been there since release, never to be fixed.

But thank you for the help at least, have a nice day.

If you're sticking with Vanilla, you can turn on cheat mode, then Ctrl Left Click to teleport anywhere on the map. Should be able to find your desired companion soon enough, although it's still kind of tedious tracking them down. Turn off the cheat mode when you're done.

I think the only way the game 'spawns in' new companions is if the current roster of Wanderers die.

A little more information about your issue is required.
1. How many companions are in your Encyclopedia? Is it just the 3-4 or whatever that you have already recruited?

2. Have you done a dedicated speed run to try to locate companions? By this I mean just you, whatever companions you have, everyone mounted, just enough food to keep your people fed. Map speed of 7+ so you not only cover more ground but also can run from any fight, going to every city on the map so fast that you beat the "companion shuffle" that happens every week or so.

3. I know this is silly, but I have to say it. Are you going into EVERY tavern?

4. New companions spawn at a rate of 1 every 6 weeks, Deaths only affect this if the number of companions available is at its limit. Promoted companions are also considered "dead" for this purpose.

Nor do I, but I don't have mods, either.
