Expose weakness?

Unread post by NegInfinity »

Did requirements for expose weakness change?

I've tried testing a build in a testing module, and the feat doesn't come up - even with prerequisites met.

Nothing did change regarding the prereqs or acquiring EW. I will check in game alter to make certain there are no issues in getting EW. If that is the case, then there is an issue with the testing module

It would be a good idea to test it.

The testing module should be pulling the 2da files from the bgtscc haks. Meaning it should show up if it works.

You are correct. However, just to be clear, nothing is supposed to change as far as getting EW. If there is a problem it will be fixed.

I believe someone was unable to get EW on the live server despite meeting the pre-reqs (by unlocking Evasion through 18 Barbarian) as well. It's just a bug. I'm sure it'll be resolved in the next update.

Hm, alright. I won't be getting to that level with that character any time soon, anyway.

It may not show if you are wearing heavy armour.

There is definitely a bug. I went ahead and leveled up my character with evasion and took a different feat. And then the next feat that I could take after that, expose weakness was not selectable as a feat. I already had evasion from a previous level and I was wearing light armor at the time. A DM was nice enough to allow me to level up, take a throw away feat, remove that feat and then give me expose weakness. I found when this happened, it was the original expose weakness. I had to log out and back in and the new expose weakness replaced it.

Have you made certain of the obvious?
1. Do you have epic prowess?
2. Were you trying to take expose weakness in the same level where you obtained evasion? Much like EDM if you qualify for it by taking a great stat feat you won't be able to take unroll your next level up/ feat. So if you gain evasion at 23 you won't be able to get expose weakness until 25 (or 24 if you get a feat at that level)

There was a problem, you'll have to wait next update though.

Yes, chad, I made sure. The expose weakness feat did not show up on character that had epic prowess and evasion, on any level. Not on 25, 27, 29.

Fair enough. It appears Valefort has found the fix for it, but until then I suppose players will need to find a helpful DM, like you did.

I think you've confused me with another poster. My character was in plannign stage and I caught the issue in the testing module.
