My thrall Is giving his weapon to enemy NPC's

Game mode: Online official
Type of issue: Bug
Server type: PvE
Region: North America


I gave my thrall (Claw of Jhebbal Sag) a blunted javelin. I then went to the Hunter’s View camp so he would help me knock out some npc’s. Instead of using the weapon, he was punching. So I finished killing the guy we were fighting and then checked my thrall’s inventory… the weapon was gone and his inventory was empty. Then I checked the body of the killed npc, and found my thrall’s blunted javelin on the body. I gave it back to my thrall. I went on to try again with the rest of the camp… the same thing happened every single time (with all 10 npc’s that are in the camp). I’d give my thrall the blunted javelin, he would punch instead of using it, i’d check his inventory, blunted javelin missing, found javelin on the body of the killed npc.

I tried putting the javelin into his inventory and directly into his hand - it didn’t make a difference. I then tried giving him a one handed sword and that worked just fine (first with a hyena since they don’t have an inventory for the weapon to go into, and next with a human npc. worked just fine both times). Didn’t have time to test other weapons/or the javelin again with a hyena, otherwise I would have. I’m also not sure if this is a result of the new patch or not, as this was the first time I had used a human thrall as a follower.

First off, welcome to the forums :slight_smile: Thralls throw javelins and throwing axes when they are in their inventory, which then has a high chance of breaking the thralls AI. That’s why you were finding it in the enemy NPCs inventory, they threw and hit them with the blunted javelin.

Hi StarlessRogue, the blunted javelin is also a throwing weapon, so your thrall just throws it and it ends up after the death of the npc in the dead npc’s inventory, try to throw the javelin yourself and kill the npc and the result will be the same.

I never saw him do a throwing animation, just immediately ran up and punched. But that makes sense! Thank you! I didn’t know these were for throwing haha

They are good tho if you yourself use them to knock out people, just keep nailing the npcs with light attacks and you’ll knock them out pretty quickly.

for thralls use: steel trunchs, lovetap or setzl trunch from wine cellar.
