No boss at end of Reknor

#1 Post by PurpleXVI »

I got to the bottom of Reknor with my Yeek Solipsist and everything was normal... except for the absence of a boss to yell at me or drop an Orb of Many Ways. Should I expect him to be somewhere else as a Yeek? Or has something been broken beyond recovery?

This addon has what you need to fix that.

And yes, Yeeks get the boss at Reknor. This is a relatively common glitch, which is why Marson made his AWOL addon. Might not save this game, but install it and keep it on hand for future issues. If all else fails, you can open up Dev Mode and manually spawn an Orb in, though it'll invaldiate your game.
I'm not crying. I'm offering a sacrifice to DarkGod in hopes he'll show favor to me.

It hasn't worked yet.

I wouldn't quite call it common. I've played quite a few games and the only boss that's been missing has been a random in Ruined Dungeon, which probably has a different explanation.

Still, whether it's common or not I've heard that add-on helps.

It's a commonly reported bug, then. Admittedly I've never experienced it either, but this is something like my fifth "Use Marson's AWOL" post in a month.

Honestly though, I don't mind seeing it, since it's one of the few bug reports where I can come and let them know there's a fix set up and ready to go. Usually it's some kind of LUA error and I'm less helpful then a carrot in an auto shop.

Largely this playthrough was for the purpose of unlocking Doom Elves, will using this addon invalidate unlocks, too? Or just mean I don't get achievements?

This addon invalidates nothing. Dev Mode invalidates your game, which disables some things like Item Vault, but it still runs with Ashes and you can still keep unlocks.

I don't recall hearing about this happening in Reknor before.
My feedback meter decays into coding. Give me feedback and I make mods.

Bosses or regular monsters missing happens anywhere and everywhere. I recently had it happen in Lake of Nur, though it was just a Bloated Horror (I think).
