So theres been a few times now I’m wandering in the volcano and my thrall will teleport to me and just die. Event log just says my thrall following me died. I noticed it seems to happen when there is no clear path for the thrall to walk.
The most recent was my dalinsia snowhunter which i had leveled up to like 13 or 14…i was attempting to get the serpent men recipes at the well. As as most people know the stair cases only go up so far and there is a point you must climb. Well while climbing she waited down below…once i got up top she teleported and just died. I couldnt even locate her body and recover the gear. I thought about just placing her to stand guard but it would not allow me to do that. Also it kind of defeats the purpose of bringing a thrall to help you fight if your thrall cannot get to locations you can without dying randomly.
Just wanted to shed some light on this issue in hopes it will be looked at.
Steps on how to reproduce issue:
Take a thrall into the volcano
Pray your follower doesnt need to teleport to you and randomly die.
and you know how it goes lets say the last one a snowhunter be able to find her take her in the will of pain lvl her up till 20lvl take her for a ride in the volcano and start again! lol
This has always been a problem. At least now lava is not an instant death, it appears as burn or bleed damage.
If only they made the lava like other games and treat it as water. The thralls will not teleport into it, and only run the risk of running through the edges.
Mapping the lava like water (and making it deep enough for the ai think about swimming) could prevent thralls to die as easy in the volcano.
What iv noticed in the past year while going to Volcano.
Stay on the paths don’t take any shortcuts and don’t bring thralls you care about.
The thrall tend to not run into the lava when you stay the paths. Its only when they start to lag behind or you take someones man made foundations they decide to go for a death swim
I get what your saying but there is no path up to learn the serpent men recipe. You take some stairs…then you gotta climb…then more stairs. So the path is broken technically. As there are enemies on the floors as you go up it’s nice to have some backup from a thrall…that doesn’t randomly die when teleporting. Just saying…
