Forum:RE: Missing caravan guard and brahmin glitch

"xbox360 When a caravan merchant is traveling alone, without a guard or brahmin, it may be a bug where the guard and/or brahmin is too far away from the caravan to spawn with it when the player waits outside of a city. In order to fix this simply run up to the caravan and wait for him to greet you. In the middle of the greeting click wait, then wait for 24 hours or so. The caravan guard and or brahmin should now be with the merchant and will travel and spawn with him.

I started a new game (on 360), ran straight to Megaton, and ran into the above glitch. The 'fix' did indeed make the guard/brahmin appear, but they did not start traveling together. Harith appears without his brahmin/guard and I use the fix to make them appear, then wait 1-4 hours for the next merchant. Now I see the next merchant standing there while Harith's brahmin runs away. Kinda like Harith ditched him. When I wait several times for Harith to reapear, he appears with guard but no brahmin. I figured, okay part of the problem is fixed. I'll run through the fix again, and perhaps the brahmin will finally start traveling as it should. No matter how many times I try, the brahmin won't actually appear with Harith. And when I use the fix to make it appear, then wait for the next merchant, the brahmin is running away again. I need a permanent fix to this problem.

I've restarted a dozen times now and still keep hitting this glitch right off. I'm going absoutely nuts. Any help would be much apreciated. I can also be hit up on the 360. My tag is Logan Broliath.Logan Broliath 10:50, August 22, 2010 (UTC)
