Languages - April 20th Update

Upon logging in, all languages except Common are removed (or rather, not granted).

Language window pops up on every log in, and you can select languages, but relogging will remove languages you've been granted. Your character will still think it has learned those languages though, so when the popup appears again, ones you selected in the previous log-in will no longer be there (until another reset, presumably).

The popup that appears gives a variable number of languages you can select. It still seems to not be counting the Int mod. I think it's just giving you a number based on how many languages you lost (IE, if you had Common +4 languages (including racial/class ones), the popup lets you pick 4), but I don't know for sure.

Same problem, completely different number of languages being offered.
My character should have:
* Common + 1 racial + 1 class + 7 int
And the dialog is offering 3 languages.

Ditto. I hadn't RcR'd my main and previously had 5 or 6 languages(and multiples of 4 of those), and the option to pick 3 languages came up on login. Now I don't have any of the languages I previously had except elven, and there was no option to re-choose the ones my character had.

Further testing has revealed that whichever languages you had before the borkage will still translate in the combat log, you just wont be able to select them to speak with. Re-logging causes the language selection window to re-appear, and also the new languages you just chose will also be missing from the new selection as well as your chat options... although you'll still understand them.

A person could, quite literally, re-log on 20 times and probably select every language if they so desired, they just wouldn't be able to speak any of them. :|

Charraj now knows Common, and can pick 4 languages (he knew more before). I guess I can RP this sudden loss of languages by saying that:

1. An intellect devourer has been hiding under his bed,

2. He hit his head while doing paperwork and now he doesn't thunk so gud, or

3. The real Charraj finally came back, killed his multilingual doppelganger, and is now struggling to get by with inferior language skills.

I am leaning towards number 3, myself. :D

Also seem to be missing class specific languages, namely arcane, thieves' and assassins' cants.

Just confirming my drow wizard could choose 11 languages on the pop-up, but none of the languages he had previously chosen were on the list, and neither were his race or class languages.

After a reset you will get your racial/class languages back automatically. My drow had 5 repicks and only had undercommon. After a reset I logged in and now she has Undercommon, Drow, Drowsign and 2 repicks.

I'd also like to point out that the Treant language is missing from the new list of languages.

Upon creating new characters, no bonus languages are being offered for selection despite INT bonuses. I've tested this with a few characters now. This was happening before the April 20th update, but I didn't realize that it wasn't isolated to me. Going to test with the update next.

This seems to be the case, but I didn't get any re-picks, and my character is still missing 2 of his originally chosen languages(sylvan and draconic).

Bringing a PC into the situation before reset fix still translates the text of languages even if they're not showing. I'll see what's what after reset on PC.

Re-logging results in new language selection and the disappearance of class/race options from the language toggle still, weee.

Juuust hit this issue with my tiefling. Languages are reset, upon logging in language window shows up, except that I can't select any of the languages that my character knew. Not even Abyssal.

Cant is also gone.

I have the same problem on my drow.

Logged on and lost all my languages, i was offered to repick but none of the ones i should have were an option i could have chosen.

Server reset and i got all my languages back. However when i relogged i lost all of them again and was offered a repick with the ones i should have not being an option.

Hope this will get fixed
