Blacksmiths for Prybyslawitz

[Bartorus]

So if i didnt talk with them in quest All that Glitters i cant recriut them? I learned about the copper in different way and know i wont get rattle sidequest?

[jballar]

good question, I have the same issue. I got all the way to the point to confront Zach, but he runs away from me every time I get near. That is most likely because I got caught pickpocketing him and punched him out.

But still, the rattled quest will not start and I cannot get Ota to be my armoursmith without finishing that quest.

Same issue here

Seems for any recruit you have to have completed any quest associated with them. Matthew and Fritz are the same. Kunesh, etc. Maybe a bug report is necessary, because if you already finished All that Glitters in a different way, I don't see how you can get them to join you.

Ohh ffs they really should put they ♥♥♥♥ together. Its not like this game is out for a week or so....

I talked to them during the All That Glitters quest. Zach just kept denying that he's worked with copper even though I knew it was him. I still managed to finish that main quest via another route and the "finding the one who worked with copper in Sasau" part of the quest failed despite completing the entire story quest. Now, I can't start the quest, Rattled.

Hmm, oh well ... If this was intended then this part of the game is not really Open-ended, right?

Anyway, it's not a big loss if players who already finished a certain story quest would never be able to recruit an Armoursmith for their custom city simply because of their choices.

If you don't ask about the feud during your investigation of the area blacksmiths then the only smith you could get for your village would be the swordsmith that seeks the sheba sword.

I would have if I had the option because I always choose all chat options with all npcs even when they're greyed out.

I didn't have the option in my playthrough during the investigation. Probably because I solved the quest in a different way - love Open Ended RPGs :D

Anyway, it's not a big deal. Just a little disappointed on the linear design on this particular quest.

Hoping that this post will serve as warning to new players so they'll know they just can't be doing whatever they want on how to solve this particular quest in their game, if they want to recruit specific NPCs in their DLC game.

It isn't a bug though. It's like the Queen of Sheba's Sword quest: it's possible to make it impossible for you to complete that quest and recruit Fink as your Armoursmith in Pribyslavitz. It's not a bug; it's gameplay. This DLC is like the base game in that it doesn't give you everything you could want, and it has choices with consequences.

But both Zach and Ota say that they need to deal with each other, so I don't see why Henry just doesn't say something along the lines: "What's the problem with Zach/Ota" and so on, untill you promise one help under the circumstance that they will be your blacksmith in Pribyslavitz, and so you would get the quest.

it is still not a bug, it is intended that you complete every quest in which a npc is involved before you can recruit him, the quest triggers have not changed, for no quest as far as i can say which makes it very likely that it is intended.

This quest is supposed to make/cover up for his loss of earnings during the main quest so it makes sense that you can not get it in other ways.

it is similar to other recruiteable npcs, if you make the wrong choices in some of their quests you can not recruite them, thats just like it is.
