    This is not a report of problem. At least, not yet.

    However, I would like to mention it appears you finally did something about your client memory management. It is significant better (so far). Between two mod ago and this mod, the memory management was horrible. I believe there was memory leak and ate up memory. For a general game play (nothing heavy duty), it could raise to 2.5GB. In certain situation, I would decide to quit the program and re-start. However, even after I exit the program (as the screen is gone but not the process itself), the process could still consume memory continuously, non-stop. I would have to kill the process directly when it reached to 3GB.

    This mod, so far, for my limited short time observation, keeps the memory 'low' from 700MB to 1.5GB and it does release memory. Granted, I have not played enough.

    Cannot log in, it gets as far as the "Cryptic Dragon Screen" and then freezes. Task manager indicates exe not responding

    Now it only gets as far as the cryptic screen and says "loading" - but is frozen

    Bug: Cannot progress the quest "Free from the Web" since the we cannot interact with the cells
  • rbtaftrbtaft Member Posts: 13 Arc User
    edited November 2022
    The quest "Free From the Web" is bugged. The cell doors don't get recognized as a clicky. This is happening on one of my characters. Another character was able to progress the mission by clicking the door. I went back to the first character and found it still bugged.

    Follow Up: The Free quest is conflicting with the other quest to free 6 prisoners. Once I freed the 6 prisoners and completed that quest I was able to advance the Free From The Web quest.

    In patch note:






    However, at least the tooltip does not say infernal secrets per day max. is double from before. Not sure if it is only a display issue.

    Edit: yes, it is a display issue. My toon could get more than 54.

    It took a long time for the game to finish loading. It seemed to have completely locked up as a black screen before the character selection stage. The first time I closed it with task manager and force verified. The second time, I just left it alone and it finally started responding.

    I don't seem to be getting any bonus currency from the quests so far (just finished the tower intro quest)

    You can no longer deposit/withdraw gold to/from the Guild Bank (or see how much gold is supposed to be in the Guild Bank).
    You can still set withdraw limits for it in the Permissions tab, though

    The zen store page of the shared bank slots still lists the maximum as 88 slots instead of 104.

    From what I'm seeing, it seems that I'm getting the 10%, but the extra 10% is counting against the weekly haul, which it doesn't in other campaigns.

    One of my dwarf looks like Grazilaxx.

    Cragmire Crypts Dungeon - The end boss area boundaries seem to be bugged - boss vanishes behind the wall and the room is hard to get into/out of. Healing can be done through the door when healer has respawned at fire during fight. Players also get stuck in combat after the encounter and cannot reliably leave it (defeating doesn't seem to help, going up by the keg sometimes does)

    Bel fight: After you make Bel to yield, if you don't talk to him fast enough, he will stand up to fight you again. I think this is new. It happened twice to me today. I turned around to take a look at the TV. He came up to fight again. It was solo fight.

    Item level displayed in character selection screen does not match the Item level in character sheet.

    Yes, that's what I realized later. Kind of makes the pet less desirable.

    Another graphical glitch, this time making it almost impossible to play. All bard powers (songs) are graphically bugged. A large, opaque color-changing circle moves with the character and makes it impossible to see anything around it.
    On top of that, there are hundreds of small graphical bugs that make the environment, mounts and companions look hideous.
    It happens when I’m playing on my laptop with RTX 3050.

    CANT CHANGE LOAD OUTS FROM TANK TO DPS
    THIS IS THE ERROR

    I'm not sure if this is just me but my paladin oathkeeper and devout cleric TAB abilities can no longer crit. It was supposed to be fixed, that players crit avoidance didn't effect our crit heals on tab now we can't get crit heals from tab abilities at all. Tested my warlock too it can still crit with its tab ability

    Edit: Someone on discord pointed out to me this bug is only if you heal your self with tab it is getting crits when used on other players I tested it on my self in the training room which is why i wasn't getting crits

    Aragon did mention this bug on preview so i removed my forgers box and chain of scales before the update, he said it happens if you have foragers box and chain of scales equipped at the same time on a loadout it will not change to that loadout i don't have the bug so cant test, but we can now right click on toolbelt items and say apply to all loadouts if you do this on all the toolbelt items it might fix the issue

    The quest: Into the Tower
    I am finding the area inside the tower super dark. Tried adjusting brightness, toggling lights on/off - no visual difference. The area outside the instance looks fine.

    Aside from that, so far so good :)

    Update: Ok - changed my HDMI black settings on my monitor to Normal and hey presto - not perfect but not having to navigate using the skill node sparkles.

    Had the same thing happen to my fighter - solution for me was slot chains then apply to all loadouts. Was able to switch loadouts and slot forgers as normal.

    (Visual Bug) I did one run of Castle Ravenloft since M24 launched, so I don't know if this is consistent. In the 2nd boss fight, after guiding the boss into a pillar to stop his spin move, the pillar doesn't get visually destroyed, it looks intact, but it is actually destroyed (when I tried guiding him into that same pillar again, he went through it).

    This was already reported in the last mod.

    Traven seems to love teleporting behind wall or the ceiling:
