No Nemesis spawning

Grim Dawn Bug Reporting
1

As the title says. Currently playing on GOG ver. 1.2.1.6. I’ve searched the bug reporting section and found no one else reported this sooooo…

Having nemesis status on both Beasts and Chtonics, I noticed that no nemesis are spawning on either.

Tried:

  1. Running Ancient Grove for Kupacabra - no spawn even after full clear
  2. Running Bastion for Grava/Benjharr - no spawn even after full clear + hunting champions on necropolis and killing the boss on Darkvale (same session).
  3. Running around killing champions. Nothing.

I have also not encountered any other nemesis spawns from other factions, but those two are the ones I’ve tested extensively. I can partially confirm Eldritch Horrors when running Morgoneth.

This happened after I patched to 1.2.1.6 (from 1.2.1.5). Anyone encountered a similar issue? Any ideas?

What difficulty are you on?

Ultimate.
I checked the patch notes too, might have something to do with their rebalancing on nemesis spawns. Ultimate should remain untouched, right?

did you use the offline installer patch, or galaxy?
it’s been known you can’t use the offline installer to patch update the complete game and have to full reinstall it, or it semi borks only patching the basegame portion
*unsure if galaxy borks/can bork that process sometimes, but i dont’ recall hearing the same tho

Really? I just started with the GOG version of the game months ago. I did use the offline installer patch.
Too bad I don’t use Galaxy because bloat, but I’ll try this once I get home. Hopefully no janks.

i’d suspect it to be it based on past occurences atleast
ex My character T-poses and cannot move - #17 by Res , 2H melee weapon freeze character (& enemies ?) (v1.2.1.1) [SOLVED] - #4 by baronmarv

I also use GOG installed manually. Unfortunately, whenever there’s a patch one has to uninstall and reinstall from scratch. The GOG patches don’t update the game correctly (Zantai has commented on this in the past).

Do a clean installation from the full installer (not patches), uninstall any mods.

Thanks! I will try a full reinstall :slight_smile: that broken patch might also explain why I couldn’t get a polarized dagallon’s or why I couldn’t find loxmere anywhere in PV

Just confirmed a full reinstall fixed the game. I got Nemesis spawning properly now. Will check if there are any more quirks around. Many thanks!
