Possible bugs

This is one section of the list of bugs.

Damage Resistence
Game Version: 1.06.973 English US/Canada

Severity: Minor

Status: Unknown

Description:

Damage resistence does not appear to work. I have an item equipped that supposedly reduces piercing damage by 5 (listed as "5/-"). If an enemy hits me with a piercing weapon and does, say, 4 damage, I receive the message "Damage Resistence absorbs 4 damage" but I still see the red "4" above my head and I still lose 4 HP from my current HP (as viewed by using the character sheet).

Roasted Companions
Game Version: 1.06.973 English US/Canada

Severity: Minor

Status: Unknown

Description:

Companions will run straight over detected traps in order to attack enemies, even if there is enough room to walk around the trap instead. (Personally, I think companions should never run over detected traps to attack enemies unless given a direct command.)

Workaround:

Disarm the trap before any enemies come into range.

Wrong Tool for the Job?
Game Version: 1.06.973 English US/Canada

Severity: Minor

Status: Unknown

Description:

When on AI mode, Elanee has a habit of casting Flame Weapon on herself, then immediately morphing into animal form. Does the flame enhancement even work when she's in animal form?

Workaround:


 * Disable ability usage in Elanee's behavior tab.
 * Don't give Elanee a weapon which is compatible with Flame Weapon.

Angry at Lock
Game Version: 1.06.973 English US/Canada

Severity: Minor

Status: Unknown

Description:

If I fail at trying to pick a lock, Neeshka will automatically run over to do it for me. This is fine; the problem is, every once in a while, instead of actually picking the lock, she attacks the locked object instead. (Maybe she does this when the lock's DC is too high for her, but this behavior seems...odd.)

Pathfinding Issues
Game Version: 1.06.973 English US/Canada

Severity: Minor

Status: Unknown

Description:

The pathfinding is very odd at times. Characters will sometimes take the longest possible way around rather than just running somewhere directly. Fort Locke, around and in the building with the crafting stations, is a good place to see this in action. Also the sarcophagi pairs on platforms in the optional crypt area of the graveyard early in the game. There are two sets of staircases up to the sarcophagi, but the characters tend to walk around the entire platform to the staircase farthest from them instead of just going up the nearest one.

Can't Rest While Enemies Nearby
Game Version: 1.06.973 English US/Canada

Severity: Minor

Status: Unknown

Description:

The "can't rest while enemies are nearby" test might want to include a line-of-sight check.

I've had this error come up when the only enemies on the entire level are across the map in another room that happens to be nearby but is divided by a thick cave wall that is impenetrable, with the only entrance requiring you to work your way all the way around the long way. That is hardly "nearby" though it might be close as the crow flies, but only for people who can walk through walls.

Workaround:

None.

Overzealous Warlocks
Game Version: 1.06.980 English US/Canada

Severity: Minor

Status: Appears to be fixed in patch 1.10.1115

Description:

When I have multiple actions queued (for example, my Warlock has multiple blasts queued), once the enemies are dead she keeps casting the leftover blasts even though there are no targets left.

Lost Item
Game Version: 1.06.973 English US/Canada

Severity: Cosmetic

Status: Unknown

Description:

When you move an item from yourself to one of your companions, or from one of your companions to yourself or another companion, the transcript says "Lost Item: [...]" Why, when you haven't actually lost the item? For that matter, placing items into magic bags also results in the text "Lost Item" even though the bag is in your inventory. Even taking two stacks of an item, and placing one on top of the other in order to combine them, results in a "Lost Item" message.

Unknown Item
Game Version: 1.06.973 English US/Canada

Severity: Cosmetic

Status: Unknown

Description:

It used to be when I did a successful Lore check on a magic item, I'd see text similar to: "Successful Lore Skill check on Dagger +1" but now I see: "Successful Lore Skill check on Unknown Item."

Rapid Shot Mode Activated
Game Version: 1.06.980 English US/Canada

Severity: Cosmetic

Status: Unknown

Description:

When I have Rapid Shot active, every time I talk to an NPC or trigger certain plot events, I get the text *Rapid Shot Mode Activated* over my head again. This also seems to happen with certain other modes such as Defensive Casting.

Ranger Abilities Disabled
Game Version: 1.06.980 English US/Canada

Severity: Cosmetic

Status: Unknown

Description:

Sometimes, equipping a suit of light armor will result in the message "You have lost the use of your Ranger abilities" and yet my Ranger abilities function just fine. It appears that the message is displayed in error.

Bug Confirmed By:

Arcane Spell Failure
Game Version: 1.06.980 English US/Canada

Severity: Cosmetic

Status: Unknown

Description:

When you equip a piece of armor, the game says the character will have arcane spell failure (in the chat log as well as on the character sheet) even if the character has a feat (such as Battle Caster) that removes such failure.

I am not sure if this is a bug or just missing functionality.

Rogue Animations
Game Version: 1.06.973 English US/Canada

Severity: Cosmetic

Status: Unknown

Description:

When you are disabling traps, the character leans over briefly into a "disabling" animation, but then he stands up before the action is complete. Sometimes happens with locked doors too.

Disabled AI Still Casts Spells
Game Version: 1.06.973 English US/Canada

Severity: Minor

Status: Unknown

Description:

Even if a character has all of his AI options disabled in the behaviors tab--no casting, no use of abilities, no item usage--he will still cast Cure spells on himself. Even with spellcasting turned entirely off.

Bug Confirmed By:

Combat Mode Usage Broken
Game Version: 1.10.1115 English

Severity: Minor

Status: Unknown

Description:

The "Combat Mode Usage" option on the Behavior tab no longer appears to be honored by the character AI. In particular, my characters will activate Power Attack and Defensive Casting even with combat mode usage turned off.

No Talking
Game Version: 1.06.973 English US/Canada

Severity: Cosmetic

Status: Unknown

Description:

Sometimes when I get a "talk" balloon over an NPC and I click on him, nothing happens. I guess he just doesn't have anything to say, but then why show the "talk" balloon?

Game Version: 1.06.980 English US/Canada

Severity: Cosmetic

Status: Unknown

Description:

Tooltips can go off the game window if the target is, for example, very close to the top of the window. The tooltips are unreadable up there.

Workaround:

Move the camera until you can see the tooltip.

Missing Font Character
Game Version: 1.10.1115 English

Severity: Cosmetic

Status: Unknown

Description:

There is a missing character in the font used in the dialogues. I am not sure what character it is supposed to be, but based on where it appears I believe it is either an mdash (e.g. a long dash) or an ellipsis (three periods). Whenever it is used, it shows up as a large blank space.
