Obsidian's Pillars of Eternity

Seems to have broken more things that it fixed. I'm now stuck with a permanent -20 concentration penalty to all my party members and I have no idea why.

Keyboard conflicts are still there for lefties who like to remap controls to the number pad.

I don't know if they fixed the insect swarm bug. The druids no longer cast it during combat so maybe their "fix" was to just remove it from the enemy AI's repertoire.

Most importantly, the new patch apparently finally allows bears to wear hats.

What next? Circus Bear Simulator?

;D

Crap....the new patch did fix some things but created other issues and I have one of them. There's a bug where rogues created at the inn by the player can't use their pick-lock ability. They are aware of it and working on a fix.

I was wondering why my Bear Hats kept falling off. Now the pants, they take off on their own. O:-)

Another new update loading now. That was quick.

I hope it fixes the rogue lock picking bug....!!

It appears they have re-balanced that beginning dungeon in Gilded Vale. No more teleporting 18DR shades summoning other shadows.

Sir Slash · April 04, 2015, 12:18:44 PM

That dungeon was a bitch in heat. Now maybe I'll go back and hit all the spots I missed first time through.

Bison · April 04, 2015, 01:31:27 PM

Yeah I had to bypass a few rooms so far because the number of shadows was overwhelming my poor lil' group. I'm going back into it and try to clear it completely. I'm not one of these nancy boys who plays rpgs to by pass the fights with fancy dancy smooth talking.

No. You're one of these nancy boys who plays rpgs to by pass the fights with fancy dancy shmancy smooth talking.

God damn but I just got spanked in a fight. I got a quest to go back to an old area that I cleared out when I was level 4 or so and deal with a new baddie that took over. I'm level 10 now and felt pretty confident about taking this one on. I think I might come back in another 2-3 levels. I've tried this fight 5 times and haven't lasted more than a minute at most and that's with time on slow.

Sir Slash · April 04, 2015, 10:30:53 PM

I just ran into the Prone Bug. Went back to clear-out the temple dungeon and after a tough fight my Priestess got knocked down and had only a single HP left and then wouldn't get back up. So I camped, saved, got all her HP back but she still just lay on the floor. When the rest of the party moved off, she followed flat on her back everywhere they went-- behavior I usually don't object to in a female character. Then she froze and wouldn't move at all. So I quit and reloaded the earlier save and she was back on her feet and kind of mouthy about it too. Weird.

This all sounds kind of normal to me, but then again....I've been married for a long time.

Rayfer · April 05, 2015, 08:15:03 AM

Well...the lock pick bug with player made rogues at the inn has been fixed. Moving forward in the game again!

I got past it with

1 level 3 fighter
1 level 3 wizard
1 level 2 priest
1 level 2 ranger
1 level 1 cipher
1 level 1 paladin

I had been trying to play with 4 guys based on some game guide recommendation that you keep your party small because experience gets divided among them.

WEEEELLLLLL, that was before I found out that there is a level cap of 12 and some people are hitting it 2/3 of the way through. So i will play with a party of 6, just like D&D, thank you very much.

I had just added those last 2 before I hit the room full of shades.
