Remorhaz Companion: Excavate and Relic Scavenger - Where are the extra relics going?

bluangeluk

Having a few problems with the new remorhaz companion.
It has two powers that work together: Excavate and Relic Hunter (at level 30).



Upon pressing 'F' on a relic, you receive the relic into your inventory and get a message in the log. The remorhaz then digs, and you either get a success or failure message. However, upon success, there is no message in the log to say you have received another relic, and the extra one doesn't appear in the inventory either.



Am I missing something? Or is this broken?

I think every mechanic that is supposed to give extra relics, namely the set bonus, is broken and giving nothing.

The pet, the trowel and the set bonuses don't appear to be working. Since the Relics were largely bugged in preview and the pet and trowel weren't made available because they wanted them to be a "surprise", I doubt anyone even tested it.

Bought the trowel and a pair of boots (to trigger the set bonus), and haven't seen any benefit. Not buying the pet till its verified as working.

Thanks for your replies. I didn't make it to preview to test, so that's interesting know that they were bugged over there.
Perhaps they'll fix this soon.

I knew of the set bonus bug from reading the thread specifically for Storm King bugs (you might want to post this issue with the companion there, if it isn't already).

was wondering why the 25% bonus netted me no extra relics on the 20 digs I have done so far

@archangelzorak01 - Aya, you mentioned that the Remorhaz was giving you extra relics?

Also, you named your Remorhaz Louie. A thousand gold stars.

My Remorhaz is working. With my inventory screen open, I saw my first relic pop in, then the second one as the Remhoraz re-surfaced. However, I haven't seen the Frostborn relic bonus proc yet...

I have been farming relics to the point where I have over 50,000 V'blod and I've been using Sweet Pea (my remorhaz) the entire time. I can confirm with 100% certainty that when Sweet Pea finds a relic I receive that relic in my inventory.

The only advice I can give people is due to the mechanic for how the Remorhaz follows you it can be helpful to unsummon/resummon her right before you dig up a relic, that way you dont have to stand around and wait for her to catch up to you.

To make if faster/easier to summon/unsummon use this keybind command:

/bind F5 "GenSendMessage Pets_Summon_Unsummon_Button Activate"

Obviously you can replace 'F5' with whatever key you prefer.

(Also, +1000 for naming your Remorhaz Louie)
