volo eye not working properly?

[da_venom]

So I got the eye from volo
and currently at the monastery and it keeps saaying Tav lost condition see invisibility
and tax gained condition see invisibility

yet, i cannot see the invisbile kobolds that didn't agrro me, basicly gotta put the wine on fire and they aggro me, but iwith volo's eye i should be able to see it anyway?

[Lil Larrikin]

Yeah I don't know why it keeps saying you lost the condition, but when it comes to actually seeing an invisible opponent they roll a saving throw which is why it doesn't always work.

What's the point if the eye gives you 100% see invisiblity???????????????

and OBVIOUSLY that's not the point. The enemy who is invisible still can roll dex save to save themselves from being spotted.

Are you talking about the kobolds in the ruined temple? They aren't invisible.

Those kobolds aren't invisible, they are hidden... but not invisible.

the eye is short range too, and the target gets a save vs being seen. its mehish -- Ive seen exactly 1 hidden dark dwarf with it so far in the whole game.

at the rosamaryn monastarery (on the way off mountain pass)

save it's basicly a text flaw then. still shouldn't they turn hostile the moment they see me?
I mean i just killed off all their drunken friends

(i know they are there cause i c the red dots on mini map
and they have like *gulp* messages.

once a throw a fire cantrip on em they turn hostile
if they even survived the blast from the explosion.

kind of weird they do no aggro tbh

It is more or less a gag.

Rational explaination: you cannot see them without xray vision in the barrels.

They cannot see you because they are in barrels, drunk, submerged in wine.

In Divinity when you did hide your character put on some ridiculous camouflage and you looked like a walking stone, bush, barrel in plain sight.

kind of meh lol

but i don't get why i keep getting the message of tav lost condition see invisibility
and tav gained condition see invisibility

how do you explain that?

"VOLO! I want a new eye!"

Does not work, IMO.

[dolby]

stealth and Invisibility are crap in the game as per normal in TB games. thing is in this game for a second it feels like it could finally be a good rpg with stealth but then few moments later you see why it's not...

For me the less you got to do with stealth or Invisibility the better the game is.

THe EA Volo eye was way better and this is a huge nerf to it, was way cooler - better when it gave you + 1 charisma

But realistically given everything you know about Volo at that point… why would you expect the eye to be reliable, seems pretty reasonable tbh. tav just needs to smack the side of his head a few times like an old TV to get the static to calm down so he can see anything
