Golem forge not working

Post by Cornflower »

I tried to forge myself a Golem. I added my 7 golem parts and 50k to the forge and talked to they guy. Just the first dialoge again.

I'm very sure of the fact that I had the proper parts as well as the required cash, melee weapon and armor.
I'm also very sure that I picked up all the pieces myself.
Since I have almost three full sets (only 2 legs, but all the rest), I tried with various combination of parts. I even threw in all 17 golem parts at once, but nothing.

I had Masc-Inc with me for guidance and support. He made a golem earlier today (or possibly yesterday) so he knows the procedure.

Is this a special "only for Cornflower" bug? :-) :-)

Could perhaps the Forge Attendant let me know what he thinks is wrong? Like, "I see the following correct parts: x+x+x+x+x". "You lack the proper y"

.... And now that I'm writing this a thought occurs to me... I remade my character the other day. It's possible I found a couple of parts on the previous version of my character (same name and all that), could that be it? If so, how do I figure out which parts is found on this exact version of my character?

The parts are tied to the character that found them.

Thank you for the quick reply!

Just for clarity, so that others can avoid my mistake:

If I remake my character using Zane and the exact same name, the things that are restored are:
- Quests
- XP
- Diety

The things that are not going to work are:
- The chest in the keep
- The Golem parts found

The reason the shelf is working is because it's tied to the player, not to the character.

Did I get this right?

This because of a special id that is generated for you character. It would be a mess to change this, so I am inclined to leave it be.

Oh, I wasn't suggesting you to change anything, I was just trying to sum it up so I can remember. Also, so not other people do the same mistake I did. (But they're probably less stupid...)

I already have 4 of my 7 golem parts fixed. No worries, everybody needs a hobby... :-)
