Anyone Have a Problem Finding Successor to Besieger/Huntsman?

[junassa]

So I tried the "seek worthy successor" option twice for my accolade, and twice got a knight, and twice I couldn't make that knight the successor. He didn't show up in the UI. I brought the second one back into my court and this is what I see in the knight UI:

He doesn't even show up as eligible to be made knight.

I would make a bug report but you know, playing with mods yadda yadda.

Is it possible that his prowess is too low for him to be your knight? He's shown in the picture as your courtier, not your knight. You would have to force him to be a knight in the normal knight overview and then he should show up as a possible successor.

Sometimes your knights are also not updated if you are already fighting a war or are in a tournament.

Edit: I just realized that you are using a mod, I don't know if that maybe causes the issue.

They certainly seem to be some of the rarer accolade candidates to get. Along with the Blademaster one.

There is also a complete list of the requirements for the different accolades on the wiki. It's a bit tiresome but once you know which traits you need you can search for appropriate candidates in the character search and try to invite them to your court.

He should show up with the 13s on the list to the right but he doesn't.

Checking the wiki, one of the problems is that I shouldn't even have the accolade without the innovation mangonels (just turned feudal). I think that's why I can't actually fulfill the successor role but not why I was able to form the accolade in the first place nor why I can't make him a knight.

I think I figured it out. My culture doesn't have mangonels but the knight's (the one I created the accolade with) did.

I'm having difficulties with successors to everything. It feels like every time one of my Acclaimed Knights dies, the succession is emptied out or multiple successions happen at once, and the accolade becomes inactive.

Cant be the reason. is huntsman the primary? that is the only one that is required for a successor. Be a knight, 8 prowess + & for huntsmaster i think it only requires hunter?

i can find successors for mine, i tried to check. Hunter trait isnt too hard to get, go on hunts and get your champions to join. maybe hastiluder trait is required as well.

we should be allowed to see "potentional" successors, as long as they meet requirements besides being our knight. honestly being a knight shouldnt even be a requirement, them being eligible to be knights should be all that matters (so men in male dominated societies) as long as they have the +8 prowess.

also seeing if our successors have both attributes or just the main accolade attribute would be good as well.

Sorry I wasn't clear. The accolade had besieger as primary and huntsman as secondary. This game was in the 1066 start playing as Manding and somehow I got a Sardinian when I searched for knights.

Unless you edited the title you were perfectly clear and im just blind. im dyslectic, gets the better of me xD i honestly didnt even see that you wrote besieger/huntsman, that is pretty clear as besieger is listed in front which would make it the primary. glad you found out tho

Do you know if Accolades go inactive every time? i had a successor & accolade and when the acclaimed knight died it got inactive,only noticed because a pop-up decision to reinstate accolades came up.

Pretty sure it goes inactive whenever you don't have any knights that fulfill the requirements.

weird, cuz i had found a replacement. maybe they both died (i assume they dont warn you about successor)
