Ineffable Wingbolt mikeprichard Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 The dialogue for the wandering Empire spies in the western Great Cave is blank (you only see "OK." in the dialogue popup window) - at least if you encounter them before encountering the Avernite patrol that mentions them elsewhere in the Great Cave (which is what happened in my playthrough).

Understated Ur-Drakon Callie Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 My scooby gang is slowly crawling through Delrin-Bok's tomb when they encounter a room with three vengeful shades. My tank (Buffy) stands in the doorway while my fighter/priest/mage (Giles), mage (Willow), and priest (Xander) lob bolts of fire and smite from behind her. The vengeful shades just stood there and took it, presumably because they were stunned by the sheer awesomeness of my party.

Unflappable Drayk Zummi Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Petition for this thread to be the official bug reports thread, if it isn't already? Anyway! Here's Garzahd doing 8000 damage. http://i.imgur.com/5waq9Vl.jpg Which is weird, because he only ever does that amount of damage when my invulnerability is up. Otherwise, he does no damage.

Understated Ur-Drakon Earth Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Avernum 6 had that Neph(il/ar) priest/chief which did superdamage (special attack) if invulnerability wasn't on (and as usual inv. ended on 1-2 chars just before 2nd superhit) and otherwise didn't do much damage at all.

Ineffable Wingbolt mikeprichard Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 One more - the "taunting" dialogue popups for the members of the Ten are a little mixed up in Angierach: I got the lich dialogue just outside the rakshasi door, and vice-versa (and this even though I'd already killed the rakshasi by the time I got to the lich door). And hopefully Jeff is breaking his own unwritten rule about not really reading the forums and is actually reviewing this thread. Guess we'll find out when the updated game versions are posted.

Articulate Vlish Unawares Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 I went back to the nasty spider cave, after I'd returned one crystal soul already. The web barricades on the way there had reformed, and in the center of the lair I found a new creature I couldn't attack - a cave crawler with name in blue. Nothing happens when you try to talk to it (might be some "doesn't reply" generic response). Odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Articulate Vlish Unawares Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I've discovered you can break the Action Point system. If you start with 18 AP and trigger adren rush you lose all AP and the character's turn ends. It seems mere mortals have limits. Starting with 16 AP works fine, haven't got around to trying 17 AP yet. Of course this isn't a problem in practice. Better to whittle those AP down a bit before triggering the adren rush anyway.

Unflappable Drayk stranger Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) So there's a max number of 36 AP you can have before it resets? Edit: Ah whoops, so maybe it is 31-32. Edited February 6, 2015 by stranger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Articulate Vlish Unawares Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 So there's a max number of 36 AP you can have before it resets? The max would be 29 or 33 depending on possible Haste process when I hit the adren rush. I'd guess the Haste DID process, because starting at 15 is pretty easy and with a haste that should take you to 30 AP after the adren rush is triggered... and if that triggered the problem it would be showing up a LOT more. (Activating adren rush still takes action points. Then you get the +20 AP, or if your action took you to negative AP it just sets you to 20 AP.) I suspect it breaks somewhere around AP 31 to 33.

Hatchling Cockatrice Mea Tulpa Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Undispellable barrier in the Vahnatai Fortress. This is really weird. Randomizer has it marked as having a switch inside that allows you to get in (presumably substituting MM 3 and DB 3 for the simple key in Avit). I wonder if this was an intentional nerf or not? The barrier doesn't actually react to Dispel Barrier at all, whereas even the undispellable barrier by Pyrn's door will tell you your spell is too weak.

Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 I didn't test it and the barrier was a blue in an earlier beta. I thought it was an alternate route if you didn't have the key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 The last few things, I think. 1. I completed the game twice, but never received the First Rescue medal. I went after the Ornotha Ziggurat soul first both times, in case that's a potential cause. 2. If you fight your way through one of the gray pass checkpoints near Sulfras, it clears out the other one. Dikiyoba doesn't know what happens if you use the pass to go through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Sade Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 If you initiate a battle with Sulfras while she is still chained and then move all the way to the other side of the room, you can just wait as long as you desire while Sulfras will be doing nothing except ‘grow stronger’. For the first few minutes of holding the wait button, that is exactly what happens, but eventually her stats will become higher than the game can handle, resulting in the likes of: On a related note, if you bring Sulfras near death, move closer to unlock her chains (with Malachite Key in possession), finish her off, and then run out of her lair before the quickfire gets you, she will be alive and well when you return. Her secret door will already be opened, though, and you can slay her again for twice the leg protection: Mea Tulpa and Languorous_Maiar 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Jerakeen Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 A graphical glitch: My character's lower extremities briefly disappear when moving west to east, but only when immediately south of the pit. This is in Cotra, but I wouldn't be surprised if the same thing happened anywhere with similar terrain. The floor tiles seem to be incorrectly blocking the view on the west side as if the height were lower there as well. Or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to use it once in my current playthrough to prevent myself from getting stuck. In some earlier games, using cheat codes would prevent you from earning any medals or achievements until you left the map area you used the code in. However, in Avernum 2: Crystal Souls, cheats don't appear to have any effect on medals or achievements. Feel free to use them as you need to without worry.

Yeah, you have to go further than that. Walking to the Tower of Magi and back should do the trick, but if you're still in Chapter 1 that's obviously not an option.
