Re: Gnome not appearing at anvil at mount steep

Hi David,

Yes, you understood correctly.

The environment and anvil looks exactly the same as on the video I showed you, but it's not glowing, and there is no interaction possible.

Leaving/restarting the game, or trying other characters, have no effect.

On a sidenote:

I also noted in another video the phone booth is glowing too, this also is not the case in my game sessions, but I can't remember whether or not I had any interaction regarding the phone booth before.

In this video it's also gnome #6 : https://youtu.be/PzcsqzIPSR4?t=182

I've also added a screenshot.

Maybe it helps.

Thanks for your help so far,

Kind regards.

    Do you have other accounts on your system. If so, can you try logging in with that account and see if the anvil is interactible?

    Also, I take it other objects like the gnome obelisks are working fine?

  • @EA_David It is fixed now. I'm not sure if you guys changed something but everything is working fine now.

    Thanks for your help,

    Kind regards.
  • I’m having the exact same problem, do you have any idea what you did before it started working?

    @DeathSeeksUs Do you have any images to show what you are seeing?  What do you mean by missing?  Additionally, deleting your save data is expected to not fix this issue.

So I went back to the anvil to re collect it and there was no gnome or any interactive prompt to make it appear I've tried everything in above post from EA even joining other people and trying different plants . I worked so hard I have everything on mount steep but that one gnome which I did have but now I dont

    @DeathSeeksUs Do you know for sure that it is the anvil gnome?  What is the column / row from left to right and up to down does the gnome appear white on your wall?

    I was fairly sure it the gnome anvil but I am at the shrine now it's the left wall of the first twelve  the white gnome is the 12 gnome bottom row the one the far right I'd screen shot but it says it too big

    @DeathSeeksUs I went ahead and made a new account, gathered only that gnome, and went to the shrine.  My findings were that the gnome from the anvil corresponds to the bottom row, second from the right and is not the one in the far right that you mentioned.  Attached is an image for reference.

    Unfortunately I cannot help you determine the exact gnome you are missing but it does not seem the anvil is bugged at the moment.
