Orsinium Stable Master Dumoga Is Missing ....

Shadowshire

When my character arrived at the stables in Orsinium (Wrothgar) to learn another Riding Lesson, Stable Master Dumoga was not displayed anywhere on the HUD. There are four other NPCs in the vicinity. Only one has an Interactive Prompt. When I use it, she tells my character that she is busy and not to bother her. However, eventually Dumoga's voice can be heard, as she discusses the political situation with two of the other nearby NPCs, then states that they must all "get back to work".

For whatever it may be worth, I cannot recall seeing any of the three NPCs shown in the first screenshot below during previous visits, nor the fourth one which walks from below to the left end of the stables to do something. Previously, only Stable Master Dumoga was present when my character arrived, often facing a horse which she is brushing. (This suggests that there are two or more instances in which my character has been played, and they are not identical. There's your principal problem right there. In which instance does the bug occur, eh?)





After I used /bug to create a Feedback report, the game client refused to accept it. There was nothing else I could do other than to make another screenshot. EDIT: this problem has been solved by @virtus753. The absence of Stablemaster Dumoga remains a mystery. ....


As the Feedback report states at the end, "Your game is becoming unplayable."

UPDATE: The screenshot below shows Stablemaster Dumoga -- as I have seen it before, among other alternatives in which only the NPC is present at the Stables.

I can’t help with the rest, sorry, but it seems you haven’t selected a Subcategory in that screenshot. I believe that’s what’s blocking you from submitting it.

You are correct. I overlooked it, if only because I was in a hurry to finish the tasks ahead. Since Update 25, the game client has acquired a tendency to randomly stop accepting input that affects what I expect it to display. So I thought that was what was occurring. The usual recourse is to use a slash command to log-out of the character, then I can Quit the game from there. Usually, I run Launcher to Repair Files before resuming play.

Thanks for your observation.

I only spotted it because I overlook it so often myself!

Hope the stablemaster issue gets sorted soon.
