run into a bug. What to do?

bought a +2 Supreme Tome (after eating OTTO heroic XP gem WAY earlier) and now my jump and swim 'bonuses' are suddenly gone.
My guildie say to level completely and the bug will disappear..... but he was playing an ICONIC and mine is an BASIC half-elf ranger.

EDIT: How does eating a +2 Supreme Tome mess (combined with OTTO heroic XP Shard?) with my base bonuses? And no I have no screen-shot but GD if I won't start doing more.

I'm not certain what issue you're having with jump/swim that would've been caused by using +2 stat tomes.

Did you sneak then get onto a mount at some point? And then use a tome then?

Try to sneak and unsneak, then relog back in. See if that helps.

er, no, I was standing at the trainer the whole time. I have not left the house D ranger trainer since I LR'd to a 32-point build.

sneak/un was unsucessful.

edit: afraid to advance in levels - *** was I demoted?

I am literally standing at a trainer after having eaten the otto 2mil stone
--well and bought/ate the +2 supreme tome

edit: does it matter that I LR'd to a 32-point biuld? IDK but that's the only other thing I've done -- but I did that, and there was no loss of the bonuses

seems the supreme tome caused it.

Are you sure you were not looking at mount boosted jump + swim scores when you saw a greater number? And the current number is your normal amount?

Can you do a manual breakdown of each skill to see how much it's "supposed" to be anfd what you have now?

A mount gives +20 Jump and sets your Swim to 50 as well if you were not aware.

Wait, what?

I LR'd for CP32 (VS CP28) at CR1. I ate the heroic XP stone at CR1. i leveled to 5-6 and I bought the +2 Supreme at about CR7 and my jump and swim bonuses vanished. I WAS IN FRONT OF THE TRAINER THE WHOLE TIME.

He's on a f2p character, unlocked 32pt builds and did an LR to rebuild his toon. Partway through re-levelling he bought and ate the tome.

I'd do what your friend recommended and complete the LR, log off and on again then see what is showing. DDO is an old game and can get grumpy when trying to do more than 1 thing at once. :)

OK, lets do some manual calcs here then:

Level 7, assuming class skill = 10 Ranks
Assuming 28 Strength (20 starting Strength, +2 Supreme Tome, +6 item) =9 Modifier for Jump and Swim
Mask = 1
Guild Buff +2 Strength, +3 Swim = 4 (total)
Skill Tome = +3
Luck = 1

You should have a maximum Jump/Swim score of around 28 for Level 7. What is your current score (this is the important one, since we can normally work it out)? And what was the number you saw prior (higher or lower than current score)?

CP32 = character with 32 ability points. CR= challenge rating, it's pnp nomenclature, although there is more applicable to NPCs than to PCs. He says he ate the Otto at level 1 and is now at level 7.

OP, that's usually a display problem. Finish leveling and relog. Actually, relog, finish leveling , and relog again.

I am NOT on a f2p character. AND NOT A HE! Honestly, can we start using gender-neutral pronouns when not sure? "They, Them, Their, They're"

I must have been on a mount, as I ran from HOH to trainers after TR. Eating the tome forced the drunken dismount I would have noticed IRL.

Either way I am over it (assume that's what happened*) and I, as always, thank J1NG and Rabidfox for their quick response/help.

*I mean, no one gets a base bonus + +25 jump and +23 swim, right?
