Thralls and Thrall Taker Journey since Patch

[Montiness]

Captured a named Scoutwright
Placed the thrall in the world
Thrall walks to bench and auto assigns
Cannot unassign thrall from bench or pick thrall back up to inventory to try to assign as it used to be done.

Thrall Taker journey cannot be updated on "Assign crafter to station" final step. Remains incomplete. Possible bug with new thrall mechanics, possible I just don't know how to do this as radial menu options don't help and placing them on or near to the green highlights doesn't trigger either. If they're meant to snap it doesn't seem to

Supposedly, you just need to access a crafting station in the thrall's area of effect to count as assigning it.

[Montiness]

yeah that did not work, thus the original post. I'm currently breaking a driver so perhaps I can try something completely different on that one

You are not alone with this bug. Many have had, and are still having this same problem.

This work-around is from someone else's post. I have not tried it myself, it is a suggestion only.

"While on the relevant Journey, access the console (`~ key) and type JourneyCompleteStepForCurrent. It should complete the step and move onto the next one, and considering that's the last step in Thrall Taker, it will finish the Journey".

Cheers for that, pity "cheating" is the only way to get it done..... or at last only with admin privvies. Here's to hoping they drop it from the stages in the next patch

You did nothing wrong. You followed all the journey steps. Because of yet another Funcom mess up you were cheated out of a bona-fide reward.
The work-around is not cheating. It just gives you the reward that you honestly earned.

At least they got rid of the Battle Pass and the way they were doing stuff. Bring back dlcs and offline play, they still have the extortion of a store though so.... coverpriced dlcs may be but at least you can get ♥♥♥♥ if you can't play 20 hours a day or give them 10x a dlc price.

[Montiness]

that didn't seem to do it either I'm sorry :(

When I bought the game 5 yrs ago I bought all the DLC's at the same time (game + DLC bundle was on sale at the time).
I love the DLC's. Perhaps in the future a Funcom accountant will wake up and smell the Silver Dollar flower and the tell the decision makers to bring back DLC's.

I was happy to see the back end of the last Battle Pass version. The previous wasn't perfect, but there were greater rewards. Let us not forget everything in the BP was cosmetic.

Imo that was Funcoms downfall for the BP. If the rewards gave the equivalent of a Legendary Weapon for example, there would have been a far greater interest from players.
They could have had one weapon/armour piece of a new 'Legendary Faction' as a reward in the BP, the rest of the set could be bought in the Bazzar.
Give the player a repairable Legendary Weapon/Armour piece, and human nature says the player will want more.
Funcom threw a golden egg on the compost heap.

Are you saying that it did not complete the Journey.

Once you placed the crafting thrall in the world, take it again (not picking up, just the "move" command) and then you get the green outline on crafting stations. That should work and count as assigning. If you place them in the world and they walk to the nearest station, it won't count.

[Montiness]

yeah it doesn't

[Montiness]

see the snapping thing in the original post. occasionally it will snap, but still doesnt trigger

[Montiness]

most times despite snapping it will just walk on the spot on the location of the green icon

Fat chance of that, the ultimate decision makers at Funcom are TenCent. Its no surprise that the Battle Pass, the Bazaar, and the "Ages" all started coming out shortly after Funcom was bought by TenCent. At this point I just hope another studio, a better studio, will make a very similar game.
