Baldur's Gate : The Sword Coast Chronicles : NWN2 Persistent World

Two minor bugs I found yesterday.

When running with my warlock invisible after casting Flee the Scene a buff appears for an instant from time to time. After looking in the character sheet I saw it is the Sanctuary effect. Maybe it's not the nastiesst bug in the world but is annoying.

I'm not completely sure if the second one is related to the update itself. I completed the "Find the precious plate" quest and, after I returned the plate to the svirf, it remained in the inventory. The problem is that I can't drop it, so I will have to call for some DM aid. Sadly, there was no one around when I was playing yesterday.

Not sure if this is true 100% of the time, but Bigby's hand cast by mino wizard was not flagged as hostile for like 4 rounds. Couldn't attack it, took no damage from AOE effects.

Zoning down the stairs from Chaos's room back to the second floor causes me to crash 100% of the time now.

My character`s inventory get clogged with surplus quest items. Troll hides, keys etc. that i can`t get rid of. How to fix this?

Quest to fetch corpses for the underdark necromancer, same problem as above.

Quest item is removed from inventory then put back in. Can repeat delivery dialogue indefinitely, till quest completion.

Item cannot be removed from the inventory or trashed.

Disguise toggle can bug if you press esc in the name field, causing you to use your previous disguise's name as your actual character name. (Bugs through resets too)

What weapon were you using? It may have been offset internally by an attack obstruction.

Dual wield (Dagger and shortsword)

So here is a different and strange one:

I have the following reqs (double and triple checked):
-19 Dexterity
-10 Hide
-10 move silently
-10 tumble (although you only need 5)
-Dodge and Mobility
-and I even have the shadow dancer qualification feat.

...but shadow dancer is not an option when leveling up?

Shadowdancer was decided to be far too OP for BGTSCC, so it's being CANCELLED!



The last vestige of non-magic options—pretty much being HiPS—for power, removed.

Well, not really....

But it kinda seems like we should rename the Server to:

Fixed for ya!

Seriously though, QC and DM team has discussed on the QC forums the fact that this update has a LOT that benefits casters and little that assists melee. Rest assured everyone is very aware of it and I imagine it will be a focus once we get through the current implementation.

Thanks Chad, for being mature, positive and diplomatic against...well, some of the other comments that have been flooding the forums lately.

I can't take much more of this negativity, I just might push my boss right off the edge in the panic and madness. So I brought +1(s) for everyone in this topic to preserve everyone's dignity, as I was afraid the trend of +1ing had burned-out... tastes just like lemon cake.

More things that I love to hate!

I was just making a joke, fyi.

Additionally, if I look at the update overall, there are plenty of "assists" across the board, however...were they all needed, or just possible, and done, so here they are!?!?

Mostly, it sounds like a bunch of cool new features, lots of choice and clicky click fun to be had for all. And really, only a few game breaking changes, which can be smoothed out once a solution is found (let's just hope the solution(s) don't take as long as it did for most of the Big Update content to get pushed through!).

But yeah, I guess I don't have to really say this, but...: we proles can't see what the QC + DM discussions are!! So obviously, we can only assume you're sitting on your hands laughing at us all as we rush to RCR and later, regret the choices we made.

It's not about the benefits anyone complains - it's about the drawbacks it brought.

- one of my toon was fatigued now when i logged him in. (where was new twirk mentioned again?)
- when casting blindsight - i get an icon 'damage immunity decreased (sonic)
