Since 2.3.1 Update a few hours ago, All my Thralls (using original type weapon, Greatswords etc), now all only use 1 swing attack and no combos, pre-patch they were fine doing their respective combos (if they use the original weapon type). This essentially makes any combat thrall useless
Please provide a step-by-step process of how the bug can be reproduced. The more details you provide us with the easier it will be for us to find and fix the bug:
Get a thrall, give them the original weapon but better
Ask it to attack
Watch as it only swings once
EDIT: Apparently it is only Dalinsia thatâs doing the one swing attack with the Original weapon, tested with my other thralls and theyâre fine
Weâve passed this information over for further investigation. Please keep an eye out on our future updates as we are always working on improving Conan Exiles.
Not for me, i have 6 of them. He is still a machine with the right weapon in Hand.
I have him using 1 handed mace and axe, 2handed sword, Hammer and spear. He combos with All the above mentioned weapons. I Do the same as OP mentioned, i give the thrall a better weapon then What He spawned with, same weapon type though. If i change weapon types then he will Not combo.
I am now experiencing the same issue. It wasnât prevalent in the past, but since the last content update, it has become epidemic.
Bearers- even with original weapon or better version of it, tried all manner of one handed weapons and the same
Fighters- the only weapon that I have seen in gameplay that does not devolve to a âone swing onlyâ is the warhammer and even that has issues.
Archers- actually seem to be working okay with bows, but still one swing the melee weapon.
Before the last content update, this issue wasnât as big of a problem. Just making sure that the followers were using the same genre of weapons would usually fix it, but now it is epidemic and even my long time heavy hitter followers who are using the same weapons as they always have are now âone swingâ.
This is definitely a problem, especially in light of the new content. A follower who is incompetent can not be relied upon to breach these new camps is of little use and it is definitely hampering the gameplay.
The New Camps are Kinda silly easy. And unrewarding 90% of the spawns.
I have leveled 2 thralls since the last âhotfixâ update. One of them is a killer with a spear/Pike and the Other one spreads poison/bleed like a champ.
The only change that i noticed since last Update in regards to thrall behaviourâŠArchers (followers or npcs in the world) ignore rational thinking and jump Off different Plattform, so All of a sudden you get the Rest of npcs agroing you (in which case having a thrall on follow might help), or your defending archers dropping from their âdefensiveâ Positions while backpedalling like Champs.
I think is all related to the âtargettingâ improovements we received a while back.
Another thing that i have noticed, when fighting multiple enemies, my fighter thralls will combo a lot more often then when fighting against a Single npc/Animal.
