Problem with Marnid recruitment

Marnid requests a padded leather armour before he'll join your forces, and you can give him any type of 'padded leather' and he'll do so, yes? So I thought, and previous experience had borne it out - but this time I bought a 'tattered padded leather' in Zendar and it didn't count as a padded leather for him. He didn't recognise it as something that triggered his joining.

Quite strange, because I recall 'tattered padded leather' working previously.
 
That's strange. It worked for me too. I guess you should send your savegame (where this bug is duplicated) to Armagan.
 
he wants padded armor, not padded leather :smile:

padded armor is... thick clothes, very thick clothes. Or somesuch.
 
Oh, really. Didn't notice that he mentioned leather. And well, padded armor is not just thick clothes. Well, thick clothes will work, but you'll have all the negatives (parasites, too hot in summer) with almost none of the benefts (protection).
I have a suit of padded armor myself. It's very good against hits, btw. Not like plate, heh, but much better then chain mail, cause it protects against blunt damage rather nice. Rather heavy, of course, but better be hot then with broken bones :smile:, And silken padded armor will protect against real (sharp) weapons too, cause it's really tough. But way too expencive :smile:.
 
I lost marnid , after a battle once he was no longer in my party. he vanished the damn traitor !!

Did he get lost after you lost the battle? And are you sure you didn't send him to the four-ways inn?

nope I won the battle and he got lost (havent lost a battle since day 40 or so and I'm on day 125). And yeah I'm pretty sure , I've never considered dumping marnid cause I spent 70000 on him (armor,weapon,horse)

No biggie though , I can handle all enemies on my own.
And I think I still have a savegame with him in my party.

Back in those times they werent that well made and getting a silken one? Impossible, padded armour was often worn under plate armour, plate armour was rarely if at all used on its own to fight it for obvious reasons and padded armour was mainly used only on its own in training because it protects well against blunt objects, not so well against sharpened swords or spears where the material would easily tear.
 
A believe this issue has already been settled. Like, half a month ago.

It's general forum etiquette not to drag the rotting corpses of dead threads back up into the light.
 
I'm unable to give him any god equipment because he has no money.. How could some one spend 70.000 on the man when I can't even give him a decent sword?? He is useless and not a real companion to me.. What am I doing wrong?? I gave him the Padded Cloths..!! Please help me out here!!

Cheers

While he's a poor bum, you can still give him items without charging for it. When you leave the trade screen you get the message "I have too little money blah blah" and you can chose to proceed anyway or think of something else.
