not completely true. I’ve encountered bandits on the road at some junctions where you typically get stopped during FT. First time was a bandit sitting in middle of the road. After dismounting to answer him, he yelled for his hidden foot pads lying in wait to ambush. Another time ran into 2 Cumins who weren’t too far from their camp in the woods. So it’s not a guaranteed FT thing
you can run into them, you just dont get a notification or anything other than an NPC saying “you there” or some other such random, attention grabbing dialogue; its very easy to miss. They, in my experience, are usually closer to town or campsites as opposed to way in the middle of nowhere but they are on the roads. Just free NPCs to get knockout experience, or the random bandits jumping you/crappy knight who is afraid of everything(dont remember what they call him right now). There is a riddler who will bet you groshen you cannot solve his riddle.
What you probably mean to say is : “I can travel on horse/by foot from one side of the map to the other without meeting anybody, but common wayfarers, without any duels or challenges. And when I fast travel from one side of the map to the other - there are no encounters at all”. Instead you wrote “when I fast travel there are wayfarers, but when I fast travel - there is nobody”. You wrote fast travel two times that’s why I probably didn’t understand you. Anyway this isn’t normal, try reinstalling or something. Post a video of you going from north to south with fast travel, a couple of times, without cuts. I would watch that.
I’ve murdered him countless times. The game just spawns a new one.
I met a wayfarer knight on the road. Accepted his challenge with a wager. Beat the guy unconscious. Waited for him to wake up. But then he took my money as if I had lost the duel. Am I missing something here? Was it a bug?
Yes. Should’ve looted him when you had the chance. You’d have got 100% your money back and some pretty boy armor
That bug is a funny one. Unfortunately the game has some not funny at all =(
Yeah when i beat him he didnt fall unconscious, so he acknowledged i won. You basically beat the “bug” out of him
Hey Danny, how’s it going? I thought about it a while ago, but forgot to write: if you don’t actually have encounters during fast travel, then you actually don’t know where to look for those guys I was writing about. I mean they actually have places where they appear, like road crossings for example. And if you didn’t ever get an encounter - you don’t know what or where to look for, and you probably see the guys walking, who don’t give any interraction! So if you still have this problem - try watching on the side of the road, if a person sits - talk. Or you see a guy with weapon and armor (plate or simple) and see him as “wayfaring knight” or “faint-hearted knight” or “mercenary” - those are the guys you can duel with. Anyway, hope that helps.
Thanks but I got to a conclusion and it’s definitely a bug, there’s no way you go from one side of the map to the other and not find one single random encounter when fast travelling also when just riding around only find common NPCs with no interactions they’re just walking around… I’m lvl 15 and for what I’ve seen this definitely ain’t normal. My game is just F’ed
Very well might be the case Danny.
Did you start a game before the day one patch. Slot of people that did this and didn’t wipe the whole game and start fresh encountered this.
I been playing on ps4 first before going to pc. I have not fast traveled once. Have had many encounters of different types.
You do have point there, yes I started my game before D1 patch. I guess I’ll have to delete everything and start from scratch, I’ll give it a try
hi everyone so if a i kill the wayfarer, is normal he doesnt want to talk to me anymore after henry say , we have met before? or is just a bug ? because i have kill him many times before and he always talks to me.
