Essentailly what I'm understanding is that Bunduk will not return. Bunduk left with the lord in question right as they went to war with the Rhodoks, who I was apart of at the time. If you're going to cheat like that, it's far easier to just give exp/gear/skills to another companion using cheats. But, if you did, you'd also have to cheat in all their gear, give them the exp, skills, and all that jazz, that they had before they were taken out of the game. You could probably reintroduce the companion back into the game through cheating, not sure. If that happens, then the hero is lost.ĪFAIK, having the Lord in question leaving the map and not returning to the game is the only verified, positive, way to permanently lose a loned companion. I've managed to get a stable group with Artimenner, Borcha and Lezalit from part one of group one, Bunduk, Jeremus, and Ymira of part two group one, Baheshtur and Firentis from part one group two. It may just respawn him without the hero - can't remember. Pick one party from the first set and one party from the second set and combine them. I can't remember what happens if the Lord leaves and then returns.

If the Lord leaves permanently, your companion is gone forever. The King boots him out of the kingdom and, since no other factions either want him, have room for him, or don't offer decent opportunities for advancement, the Lord leaves the map, sometimes permanently. That can happen when a Lord is captured/loses a battle and his standing sinks with his King. The bug is when a Lord leaves the map to go to 'foreign lands' and happens to have your companion with him. Borcha's doing a great job replacing him, but I'd love to have him back for my takeover of Calaradia. See and that's what I'm hoping didn't happen.
