Help my Ebony Warrior base ID is different???

[RandomGuy(2)]

So I wanted to respawn the Ebony Warrior to fight him again and according to the Skyrim community, they said his base ID is 040285c3. But for me, it's 030285c3.

So basically what I'm saying is, the first two digits are 03 works and I can spawn him, instead of 04 which most people say is the actual correct ID. Can anyone tell me why it's like that is it because there is an issue in the files?

It depends on which DLCs you have. The first two digits specify from which .esm in the load order it has to load.

00 Skyrim
01 Update
02 Dawnguard
03 Hearthfire
04 Dragonborn

As Mr. Sheffield is saying, the first two digits refer to the order you have your dlc loaded, so if you have dragonborn as your third all the stuff from it has an 03 at the front, if it's fourth it has an 04 at the front.

If you don't have one of the DLCs, then it's not a major issue, if you have them, but they are in the wrong load order, well that can be an issue, as it can stuff quests and things up (since stuff gets loaded but overwritten, or just as bad the later DLC doesn't overwrite because it's getting overwritten).

In this case either manually sort them into the order Mr. Sheffield has shown or use Loot (which will also help sort any mods you are using as well).
