Tenderfoot Thahd oliverjones Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I am playing Avernum 6 on the ipad and I've "lost solberg" and have gone over the whole of the occupied lands, n/s/e/w of formello/duvno etc. I started walking with Solberg after the quest then on the ipad I got off his path then i couldn't find him AT ALL. I can't get andros to speak to me he's so mad i went with solberg. Seriously frustrating..... help! thank you! Jones Celtic Wiz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easygoing Eyebeast Triumph Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 So...trying to clarify what's going on... You got the quest to escort Solberg. You talked to Solberg in Fort Duvno. You left Fort Duvno and he was with you. And then you wandered off, and Solberg disappeared? Is it possible he got killed and you failed the quest?

Tenderfoot Thahd oliverjones Posted January 3, 2013 Author Share Posted January 3, 2013 sure that is possible... but i can't get any more quests - so basically if that is the case, my game is done? if so, i get it, but i don't want to waste anymore time with it!

Tenderfoot Thahd oliverjones Posted January 3, 2013 Author Share Posted January 3, 2013 also, wouldn't 'that get reported to andros?' he still thinks im supposed to be with solberg and then back at the castle levitt says i need to be there killing ess-kalyn and no sign of her too. does it all just end the game when you miss something? thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Triumph Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 No, failing this quest should not cause the game to end. Are there signs of dead sliths in the area? Is that big ol' gate still intact? Just trying to figure out if Solberg went and did anything on his own, without you, or not. This sounds like it might be a bug, in which case you may want to send Jeff an email explaining exactly what happened. If the game is truly messed up, I don't that there's anything you can do except start over. I don't suppose you have any earlier saved games you could go back to?

Tenderfoot Thahd oliverjones Posted January 3, 2013 Author Share Posted January 3, 2013 i don't have one from before that quest, i over saved as i thought it was totally 'fixable' - big gate still intact, i can get pretty deep into that from the north, and it 'replenishes' some sliths but the evidence of the dead is there for sure..

Easygoing Eyebeast Triumph Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Well, it sounds like Solberg made it partly on his own, and then either died or disappeared, and the game doesn't know how to resolve it. On Mac and Windows computers, it's possible (though I don't quite know how myself) to enters coding to make the flag certain quests as complete, but IIRC that is not possible on the iPad version due to the different system. Ultimately a restart may be your only choice. I'd recommend re-scouring the area for any sign of Solberg, just to make sure, and revisiting all the other relevant people, just to make sure, and checking your quest log to see if it says anything helpful, just to make sure. Then go ahead and email Jeff, and explain systematically what happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garrulous Glaahk Wizard Orcasus Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 oh and be sure to have powerful potions when fighting ess-kailyn ( sorry if the name is wrong for ess-kailyn fans ) and do as solberg told you stay near him and bring the mobs near him, he will remove them in no time ( depends ) goodluck!! P.S potions and magic. is good to fight from afar! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fledgling Fyora Celtic Wiz Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I have lost old Solly. He dashed out of the gate and did not show up at Horned Gate. I've been everywhere looking for him from north south. Nothing I guess the quest is failed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 He should be waiting for you south of the Horned Gate but not in the Slith occupied part. If nothing else check back inside Fort Dunvo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk adc. Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 thanks i appreciate it. - jones Just a tip, before you do a quest/escort someone, it is best to save the game before attempting something else.

Garrulous Glaahk Painted Lady Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Just to be sure. Is this where you are looking for Solberg? Also, the two times you always want to do a save in Spiderweb games are: 1 - When you are supposed to meet someone somewhere 2 - When you are supposed to escort someone somewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fledgling Fyora Celtic Wiz Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 This where I have been looking for Solly . He just isn't there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
