[1.0] Golbug the destroyer not there

[Robsoie]

Hello

Running this Yeek Solipsist :
http://te4.org/characters/7727/tome/d20 ... a9a948a689

After completing everything in the West, it was now time to go to Reknor (in the J panel the quest is there) to fetch the Orb of Many Ways from Golbug the Destroyer corpse.

I entered the last floor (where the portal is located) and cleared all the rooms, and to my surprise no dialogue popped up, and after destroying the orc presence on that floor, Golbug is nowhere to be seen.
It's the 1st time this happens to one of my characters.

As i dug around to see if for some reason he spawned in a wall, i ran into a hidden room in the southeast of the map that you can reach only with digging.
Unfortunately while there were several orcs, there was no Golbug at all.

I have no idea what happened as there was no error message appearing during that floor clearing.

in the log the only mention about Golbug are :
Added unique mod.class.NPC/Golbug the Destroyer :: 1

Loading tile npc/humanoid_orc_golbug_the_destroyer.png



and nothing elses in the long battle log
The only occurance of "no Golbug" i found when searching on the board is this old report :

It's a long shot and I'm probably wrong, but is there a chance you missed some dialogue with the elder of Last Hope? (either because you didn't talk to him at all, though idk if you can even try to enter the place if you don't; or because you talked to him enough to get the place to appear but didn't "finish" talking to him to get all of the dialogue completed)

Short of that, I've got no idea why he wouldn't spawn. Can you normally enter the room with the portal in it before killing him? If not, is it possible he's inside there (when he shouldn't be)?

No i didn't miss the dialogue with the Last Hope Elder, i gave him the Staff of Absorption (as i won the post-Dreadfell ambush, the orcs couldn't steal it from me) the quest asking you to get to Reknor appeared in the Quest list, i cleared completely the floor in the bottom of Reknor in which the portal can be found (and there was none inside the portal room itself) , even cleared the hidden room in the southeast of the map that you can reach only with digging
Still Golbug is nowhere to be seen.

I dug a lot of the whole floor to see if the guy was stuck in a wall (so i could maybe see loot, hinting that it was indeed the case and he died in a wall before the dialogue could appear), but again, nothing.

What's puzzling me is that i played a lot of character that reached the point in which you need to go to Reknor, i even won some games in this current 1.0 release, and this is the 1st time i have Golbug not being there.

All i can think is that as a Solipsist i use Silence a lot along my Warrior Thought Form (warrior is my favorite thought form to clean rooms with large amount of enemies with his Death Dance talent)

So i'm wondering if that Silence prevented Golbug to talk ? if that is even possible to prevent the ingame dialogue to popup and my thought form killed him out of my view ?
But it's unreasonnable because from past games experience a Thought Form stand no chance alone against an unique

And as i mentionned in the .log, out of the 2 lines i quoted there's not a single reference to Golbug in the whole battle mechanics listed there, it seems that he just didn't spawned at all.

The difficulty there is that i have not seen any error message in that log that could at least have explained what had gone wrong.

If you kill Golbug before he has a chance to speak, he should still drop the Orb.
