I get this every time after I rest my toon Caed Wynter-Rose. Is it a known issue, but not fixed by the time of yesterday's Update?

It is a known issue. Is this still happening after the update?

Can you tell what kind of feats your character has ? Thinking about feats that are tied to a script and not passive ones (so feats like Hevy armor optimization, auras, etc).

Ok, how many times do you get the message after a rest ?

1 time.

If I remember correctly, BEFORE the last update, it was 2 times.

I had this occur right after the update. Oddly, teleporting via scroll actually caused it to stop.

It's going to be a bit long to correct those all. When you notice several such messages after resting please tell me what feats your character has.

We also get the message when casting spells such as GMW on weapons in inventory.
Spell does its job though.

cleric1/dragonslayer1,fighter (no special casting feats taken) gets one message on rest.
wizard/dragonslayer/eldrich knight (pcaster,still spell,spell penetration) gets one message on rest.
cl/dragonslayer,berserker,hiero (pcaster,extend,spell penetration) gets one message on rest.


bard/cl,silverstar (no special casting feats taken) does not get the message on rest.
mo/cl/hiero/sacredfist (pcaster,extend,sfocus) does not get the message on rest.
mo/sshaman (pcaster) does not get the message on rest.

looks like it is tied to dragonslayer.

I know the reason, it's just very long to track all the culprits :P

Had it happen on my level 2 cleric, only feat I had taken was soellcasting prodigy. Interestingly enough though it seems to only occur within a round or so after resting. So if I try casting a spell right after resting it'll fail and give me the message that I shouldn't swap weapons or some such, however if I just wait a sec, no issues. I've tried casting a cantrip after resting a few times and it failed each time but the next spell would work fine. I've also waited a full 10 seconds after resting and had no issues. Not sure if this helps but it's what I've noticed.

Indeed, need to wait a round when resting a cleric and paladin and that has been the case for a while now.

Not the same with my wizard and I just line up wards but occasionally forget it's different when I play the cleric.
