Thrall Disappeared when placing

Platform: PC
Issue Type: Bug
Game Mode: pve-c
Server Type: Official

Placed a Thrall (Ulva of the North). Thrall disappeared. Log states she decayed due to players in clan being inactive. Thrall was placed today 10/17/2024 after updating to Age of Heroes.

Hello!

Could you please check if you can find this thrall in your inventory?

Negative. Not in inventory or on wheel. Not in any nearby containers.

Happened to me the same thing , I placed a bladesmith , I assigned him a bench (Blacksmith bench) then he goes aways i never saw him again, i checked the folower list its said returning home and after he desapeared even of the follower list. When he was in state of returning home I was not ablle to see him in the map also.

3 of my crafter thralls have disappeared after placing them down =(

Any chance of more info like:

  • what surface is the craft station on? And any build pieces over water?
  • are any placed thralls appearing in any craftstation new thall boxes? (some reports that some thralls appear in there that should not appear there - a Smelter in Tannery, etc.)
  • Is there a block or three spaces around the crafting station?
  • Thralls missing after teh server reboots (overnight).

Similar thing happned to me,

I have 2 Thralls T4ā€™s a Crafter and a Priest for the last few hours showing status ā€œReturning Homeā€. Cant see them on map.
I have observed on the same server, several people experiencing the same issue.
which normaly would not be a big issue, yet coincedently these 2 Thralls are very very difficult to find and capture.

Edit: I went and checked the Inventory of the Altars and the Bench these thralls were assigned to-as suggested above. no luck.

see my post on the mega thread.

sorcerer went on a walk about, very long walk. then went to returning home and then poof gone. follower count went down by one and nothing in the event log.

I dont know what to do anymore i have 4 or 5 workers in my list that put in the benches they still in my follower list but i cant see them in any part of the map, vanish completely and this happening in all servers I play people complaining about T4 Thralls , I dont see reason to continue playing this way and Iam sick of zedesk reports.

Yep itā€™s happening to everyone. Itā€™s not safe to try and enjoy living settlements because it doesnā€™t even work correctly.

@AndyB is going to tell you tough luck go out into the world and get another of your t4 thrall.

I made the mistake of placing a second T4 armorer before my original post. Same thing. Sheā€™s in my follower lost but is no where on the map. Perfectā€¦

Here, this is also a funny one, after he died, his gear never decayed. He went into the voidā€¦

Grymm good questions.
These are settlement preparation guidelines that should be provided by the developers to the community!
Here we are grasping at straws and the message that gets through is one of negligence on the part of the players. It seems to me like a huge joke.
That said in the face of a huge hole in the water of AoH both for buggy quest chains, servants disappearing, a button in options disabling the suicide servant settlement would have been a good thing

For the record, after 3k hours of playing, I stopped playing since the nemedian foundation bug but I enjoy reading the forum and every day I become more and more convinced that I have made the best choice of my life

In the past the community have, shall we say, been quite negative when, in the past, the devs game more detailed feedback, so although I have no personal knowledge of it, I certainly would wait until I had checked all the issues, their possible solutions, and then an effecient way to resoltion - before telling the community. There was some limited feedback via Discord, but not a general message to my knowledge, though they may have replied directly to players that logged direct tickets.

For all private servers and solo-play, there is a button to deactivate, and that worked. Official servers? No.

For the record, after +11k hours of active gameplay since way back at the start, I share frustrations when updates land as they directly impact my servers and players. As every update has come with issues resulting in the need of a patch, itā€™s not unexpected. Many players have come and gone (from my servers) - there are a lot of games out there, so thatā€™s perfectly normal. Games certainly are not part of my life choices, but I do share the enjoyment of them when I indulge.

As I personally do not like the single player but am very enthusiastic about the interaction between human beings, even in the gaming context. I have always opted for official servers in order to ā€˜eliminateā€™ any mishaps that may range from cheats or everyday situations (e.g. if a private server owner wakes up and is no longer interested in renewing the server rental, what do you do?).
I always felt protected in a certain way, as if the official server had an extra edge.
But with the constant failures, I cannot find an impactful synonym that makes the point, to err is human but to persevere is diabolical.
In my family business if employees allow themselves to create misses, pass the first, pass the second but by the third you are out.
At the launch of AoH they reached 14k players to date not even 5k in game.
Not even with the partnership of Twitch or YouTube can people be enticed.
It is not possible that paying players at every update launch have to become beta testersā€¦ā€¦
I remind developers that if you donā€™t sell = you donā€™t fill your belly.

Anyone know if thralls are getting replaced? I highly doubt it, but I figured it couldnā€™t hurt to ask. Placed Ulva of the North and Morena before I knew that living settlements was a mess. Ulva vanished right when I placed her and Morena took a walk and never came home. Tried to rescue her just now and got an error stating that follower didnā€™t exist. Nothing about her coming up in the event log.

Getting real hard to stick around these days. I want to believe these issues will be fixed but this one is really bad.

Donā€™t expect anything will be replaced, best go and hunt for new ones. :wink:

At least we have new goals, barkeepers are easy to get from cages (Den and Summoning plcae for example), a lively tavern indeed gives T4ā€™s, rare, but it happens and for the rest, get a club and chain, and hunt.
