Current Known Issues (2-3-2010)

Of Special Note

• NEW - If you have enough XP to level up, you should do so before talking with Kruz to perform a Reincarnation. Attempting to Reincarnate while you still have the "Ready to Level" icon on your screen can result in reincarnating with the incorrect amount of XP for your character.
  
• Named items from the Menechtarun that are "exclusive" should NOT be placed in the stone of change for the cleansing rituals, as it will destroy the item. Additionally, please note that the Great Axe of the Chained Soldier is an exclusive item, but this is not mentioned in the item description. Do not perform cleansing rituals on the Great Axe of the Chained Soldier.
• If your quest fails to complete, logging out and back in can re-update your quest status to grant the completion. Make sure you have someone in the quest to keep the instance active for you while attempting this work-around. Solo players please note: logging out and back in may help, but only if your instance does not reset in the process. If the instance resets you will need to redo the quest.
• Players have reported that they sometimes have trouble climbing up long ladders due to hitching or becoming caught in the middle of the ladder. Many of these "sticky" ladders have been fixed, but there may be other locations. If you come across a sticky ladder, please submit a bug report from the location of the ladder.
• The DDO Unlimited key mapping will over-ride existing Stormreach key maps. Make a copy of your 'ddo.keymap' file before using DDO Unlimited to retain your old settings.
• If you are downgrading from a VIP account, any characters of a premium race and/or class that you have not purchased with Turbine Points or unlocked with favor must be purchased/unlocked before you will be able to access the character as a free or premium player. Example: If you downgrade and select a warforged monk, you will need to purchase monk and warforged before you'll be able to play the character.
• Remember that if you take Jeets offer to skip the tutorial you will be advanced ahead in the storyline of Korthos. In order to group with friends who have not yet unlocked the ability to skip the tutorial, decline Jeets offer to skip ahead and complete the grotto tutorial instance. This will allow you to enter the snowy version of Korthos village to group with other players in that part of the story!

Turbine Download Manager

• If you enter character generation and already have 10+ characters displayed, you will need to wait for the game to download before being able to select/create a character to login with.
• The TDM UI occasionally stops updating, even though TDM is still downloading. To correct this, close the UI using the x in the upper right hand corner, and then reopen it by double clicking the icon in the system tray or through the start menu.
• Windows Vista Only - After installing Lamannia via TDM, the live non-TDM DDO client hangs at "Examining Programs." To fix this, please go into the folder you have the live client for DDO installed and run this file:

TurbineRegisterGDF.exe

• The game icon created by TDM in the Games Explorer folder of VISTA currently does not work. You will need to launch TDM and click the play button to enter the game.

DDO Store

• The search option has difficulty with search queries on items that are less than 3 letters long, or that are plural. (examples: you may not get any search results from searching for "+3" instead of "+3 weapon", or "quivers" instead of "quiver")
• Once Favored Soul or Drow is unlocked with favor points, it is still accessible in the DDO Store. This is by design, as purchase in the store will grant Favored Soul or Drow access to your account for all servers, while favor unlocking is per-server only.
• "Recent Buys" in the store are only displaying very latest purchase
• "Continue shopping" store link takes you to the homepage
• Scrollbars erroneously appear on dropdown menus, but you can't scroll without closing the menu
• Crafting menu is obscured by the scrollbar
• Purchase of Content Packs in the store will not automatically display the associated Guest Pass. To correct this, click the Home button (the one which looks like a little house) on the Store window and navigate/search for the Guest Pass again.
• Viewing the Store before you login a character will only display account level character purchase items. To see a full list of items available to your character, log in the character.
• Scroll and Potion vendors do not link to the correct page in the Store
• Some items display a different icon in the Store then the icon in your inventory
• The DDO Store's automatic filtering does not recognize feats or enhancements that allow you to overcome prerequisites for some items. This can result in the Store blocking some items from appearing in your catalog because the store doesn't think you are able to use the items.
• Returning players who are not receiving their favor reward Turbine Points may be able to correct the issue by logging out and back into the game to receive residual Points. Refreshing the Store using the home (the house icon) button may also correct the issue.

In Game Vendors

• When selling to pawnbrokers, remember that unlike Tavern-keepers and general vendors, other players can purchase an item you've sold to the NPC. Additionally, it is intended that items sold to pawnbrokers will not appear in your buyback list. Instead the item will appear for purchase in the sell tab of the pawnbroker's list.
• After attempting to post an item that is broken or has low durability, the auction will be rejected but the item will stay in the UI. You must close the auction house UI to add more items to the auction house.
• The Armor Broker in Amarath is not currently brokering armor, but clothing instead.
• Agrimor, the Level 1 - 3 Arcane reagents vendor, has run out of supplies of Licorice (Level 3 Bard Component). Agrimor is expecting a fresh shipment of Licorice in the future.
• Tad Hardcastle spent so much on his new acrobats outfit that he has tried to cut some corners on his donation gifts. The Greater Tumble spell he casts will only allow players to tumble if they have more than 0 ranks in tumble.
• Maxon the Dreamwalker is not currently collecting Blessed Candles.

UI

• Grazing hits from monsters are not showing in the combat log
• The Fog of War on the system map may be reset if the map is resized.

• For Drow Bards following Virtuoso of the Sword, at level 17 the path receives 3 ranks in the Tumble skill. This is not showing when leveling up.

Reincarnations

• The Past Life Feats can only be selected once.
• The in-game reincarnation text incorrectly states that your normal bank inventory is not placed in the reincarnation cache. All bank inventory is placed in the reincarnation cache with your equipment and personal inventory. Items in the shared bank are not placed in the reincarnation cache.

Hirelings

• When reporting issues with a Hireling, be sure to include the name of which Hireling you were using.
• Hirelings will path to monsters across water if they think they can jump across. They aren't very good swimmers though, and if they don't make the jump, you will have to recall them to you.
• Many switches, levers, and other interactables have been scooted into Hireling reach. If you encounter one they still refuse to use, please submit a bug report but include specific information on the location of the interactable they're having trouble with.
• The icon used on the contract for Syllix Giantbane is incorrect. It shows that he is a barbarian when he is in fact a fighter.
• The Hireling Rage is experiencing a regenerative event loop from time to time. Ignore him. He's just angry.

Spells

• The icon for Summon Monster IX displays an Efreet and not a Hezrou as it should.
• When casting Blade Barrier while standing in water, the spell effect will disappear immediately after it appears.
• The icon for Mordenkainen's Disjunction shows a '0' for spell level rather than 'X'
• The icon for Chain Missile shows it as level 'I' when it should be level 'III'
• The icon for Prismatic ray does not show a 'V' as it should to indicate the spell level
• Mass Repair Damage spells do not use the correct 'Mass' icon, but instead display the standard repair icon.
• When Good Hope is cast after players take advantage of Heroes' Feast at a rest shrine, the immunity for Fear and Poison will be lost.
• During PVP, players with the Invisibility spell cast on them can still be seen by opponent players.
• When a spell caster casts a Ray spell (e.g. Niac's Cold Ray, Ray of Enfeeblement, Scortching Ray, etc) at a target that is 2.5 meters away or closer, the spell misses.

Skills, Feats, & Abilities

• Spell resistance provided by the monk ability Diamond Soul is not displaying properly on the character sheet. This is a visual error only, and the spell resistance is being applied.
• The Quick Draw feat does not have an effect on how quickly a player performs a ranged attack or switches their armor as the description indicates.
• Monks start with a base attack bonus (BAB) of 0. They are granted a +1 to BAB while centered. For the purpose of determining pre-requisits for feats, the bonus for being centered is not considered. This is unclear in the current character sheet display.
• When toggling Slow Fall 'off' it may not turn the effect off.
• The minimum ranks in the Perform skill required to use Bard songs are based on the 'ranks' taken, not the modified skill total. This is by design.
• The icon for Perfect Slow Fall does have the correct icon.
• The icon for Hide in Plain Sight is incorrect. It is using the 'Die Hard' icon.
• The rogue ability 'Poison: Thoughtburn' does not always stop enemy casters from casting spells as it should.
• The description of the barbarian 'Rage' feat does not accurately indicate the duration the rage will last. This duration is modifed by the characters constitution score.
• The icon for Tireless Rage appears twice on the character sheet, and is showing as the Die Hard icon.
• NEW - Some Monk stances may appear activated when you log in, when in fact they are not and must still be activated.

Enhancements

• Warforged Brute Fighting can not be used when a rage effect is applied to the character.
• Paladin Enhancement, Defender of Siberys III: The Glorious Stand ability does not apply a cure light wounds each time the damage reduction 20/epic is overcome as it should.
• Paladin Enhancement, Stalwart Defender: The increase to max dex bonus is not being correct applied to Warforged with adamantine plating.
• The description for the Toughness enhancement lines can be confusing, as the hit points described do not stack with the previous enhancement. For example, Barbarian Toughness I states you are granted 10 additional hit points, while Barbarian Toughness II states you are granted 20 additional hit points. The total hit points you will receive when taking both barbarian toughness enhancements is 20, as the second level of enhancement is including the 10 from the first level in the description.
• Enhancement, Paladin, Divine Might: The charisma requirement for Divine Might is listed in the description but does not show in the requirements section.
• The Barbarian Might capstone uses an active icon when it should be passive.
• The Master of Archery capstone uses an active icon when it should be passive.
• The text for the Spell Damage Application enhancements is cut short.
• The enhancement 'Extra Action Boosts' should only be boosting the number of Fighter action boosts. Currently it is boosting the number of all action boosts. This will be corrected in the near future.

Items

• Great Axe of the Chained Soldier is an exclusive item, but it does not specify this in its description text.
• Greensteel bows are currently not properly applying blast effects.
• In rare cases, level 10 and level 11 race restricted handwraps were not working as intended. These dysfunctional handwraps will no longer drop. Note that any of these particular handwraps that were previously dropped are still dysfunctional.
• The 'Keen' effect does not apply properly to thrown weapons.
• After using a Thrown Weapon, you will need to re-equip ranged weapon ammo such as arrow or bolts.
• Thrown weapons are not receiving the set bonus for wearing Tharne's googles and bracers.
• The following potions can not be used while raged. They will be updated in the future. Lesser Restoration, Nuetralize Poison, Remove Curse, Remove Disease, Remove Fear.
• The DC bonus to Stunning Fist and Stunning Blow is not being applied when using handwraps. It is added appropriately when using other weighted weapons.

Crafting

• Items fixed or modified using the Stone of Change or other Eldritch Devices will sometimes not display the updated effects. This is a display bug only. Removing, and then re-equipping, the item will show the updates to the item.
• The 'Force Critical' and 'Force Damage' rituals from the Stone of Change do not apply appropriately to handwraps.

Monsters

• Bezekira attacks are getting concealed when attacking players.
• NEW - Monsters sometimes forget to wander back to their normal guard duties after vanquishing you. They'll get back on the job...eventually.

Quests

• NEW - Epic Vault of Night Part 4 is only dropping one Epic token per group.
  
• Desecrated Temple of Vol
  • The DM narration does not match the correct DM text.
• Certain quest objectives will not show as completed for some players in a party. The objectives that involve monster deaths appear to be the most common offenders (example: killing one of the kobold brothers in the Den of the Kobold Brothers quest doesn't properly give credit to all party members for the death of the kobold).

Adventure Areas

• Ataraxia's Haven
  • When using 'Recall' from Ataraxia's Haven you may not end up in the public area which you entered from.

PVP

• You may not be able to exit the arena at the end of a PvP match. Logging out and waiting or changing characters for 5 minutes before logging back in with the stuck character will correct this issue.

Other

• At times you may enter a public spaces or new quest areas via a portal and find objects in the room missing. The Quickfoot Thieves thought it would be funny to make objects around Stormreach invisible. The objects are there, you just can't see them! Leaving and re-entering the area can remove the effect.
• After collecting treasure from a bag that falls from a monster the bag will disappear. If you later come back to the location of the bag, it may re-appear by you will not be able to pick it up again.
• When the mouse cursor is over a number of UI elements, including hot bars, the keyboard will not respond to commands.
• G15 keyboard LCD displays currently show Spellpoint totals for non-casters. The hitpoint totals displayed as a result of changes to a player’s constitution bonus are sometimes displaying inaccurately.
• Due to an issue with the engine upgrade, other player's characters may appear to be "choppy" in movement at times. This does not effect your own character, only other characters you are viewing.
• Improvements have been made to the game's launcher, in order to become more compatible to Windows Vista. However, some users may encounter errors if they have already adjusted Vista permissions to get the game to work. Click Here for information on how to fix this error.
