Im gonna look in Guild Wiki to see if his name is an anagram of any other names, or if someone else in the game refers to him in any way.

I wonder, has anyone who has beaten Nightfall talked to Bahltek?

I have finished NF and have 100% cartographer, he says the same thing whether done or not (in all 4 known locations)

I'm keeping an eye out in other zones on Istan and also the mainland for Bahltek.

Just wondering if Bahltek is another Lore forum poster (similar to gwonline and the Holdings of Chokhin) who has been added to the game.

it's a possibility we can't discount. i guess unless we find another sighting, or at least a mentioning of him, on the mainland, this'll be a mystery until ANET gives us more or chp 4 comes out. I'm talking to every npc i see in the realm of torment to see if maybe a lost soul might mention him

I even went out and checked out this guy: Mehkun. He doesn't do anything at all.

Interesting. I thought you guys might have beaten NF but I was just double checking, thanks for the info >_o

i have a question, is bahltek always looking towards water since his speech has some references to water, maybe its of some importance hinting towards something watery.

I like things like this that Anet put in. Little things that cause lots of disscussion. Makes it more fun. Haven't tried visiting this bloke yet, might give it a shot.

I found this guy as well and figured that I missed whatever quest he was supposed to lead me to. I personally like it that not every NPC has a purpose... ;0

Carinae has done every quest in Prophecies, Factions and has only 6 left in all of NF. So, it is't an issue of finishing some basic quest.

Now maybe I missed one (doubt it, but possible) or there is a more complex trigger mechanism....

and yes, i like these little..well little eggs in the game ^_^ i've never really paid much attention or questioned these things much but I'm glad I helped start something. I'm now talking to every npc i can see to see if there is any hint.

Yeah the spawns are really random, I tried finding him on my sin with no luck either. It's really annoying >_< it was pure chance that I found him on my monk again

FYI: having Razah doesn't change Bahltek's message, at least in Zehlon reach.

Nor does he change what the suspicous hermit does.

this is insane. does anybody know if any mentioning of anything similar to what bahltek says or maybe bahltek himself in any of the other campaigns, particularly tyria? or mabye in UW or FOW?

yep that's unfortunately the case, which just adds more mystery to it, and a little annoying to try and find him. Still have yet to hear any sighting or a mentioning of him on the mainland

I am just throwing out ideas, but is it at all possible that this has something to do with it:

o.O well that IS interesting, but i don't know if i want to delve further into that as I'm afraid it might through this thread off-topic. However, I think it's good to keep in mind...

...

*wonders*

...wait...

geh I remember someone saying they found bahltek in Fah..THAT CITY (i hate spelling it.) and said he was facing a certain direction. what if he was facing the mountain's direction?!?!

He faces SW at Farahnur. I never noticed before, but he only faces North or SW, anywhere.......

At least two times he is looking at those big egyptian-looking statues in the water.

Also..... The mountain appears surrounded by mist which may relate to the wizard Bahltek is looking for...Lord Orodan.

well i know he talk's about water reflecting in one place and something, stars in the other, and something else about opening portals when hes somewhere else. Well i just happened to notice that in the town with the big portal that takes your to the realm of torment, the ground is all clear and "reflective", and there are also many stars in there. Maybe they make a picture or message, i havnt spent the time to look at them all but i just thought of mentioning this incase anyone else wants to check it out.
