Cantrip Lost From Hotbar
So I know you can rearrange the hotbar and whatnot, but I seem to have stumbled upon a slight problem. I accidentally dragged eldritch blast off, which normally wouldn't be a problem, you just open the spellbook and put it back. But see here's the problem, that eldritch blast came from spell sniper, not from a class level up. It doesn't show up in the spellbook, therefore I can't drag it back. All is not lost however, as I can still use the cantrip through the cantrip tab in combat, it's just a slight nuisance that I'm wondering if it can be undone.

Works with my other Cantrips. Might work here. Could be just a display bug.

You should be able to unlock the bar and drag it from the Cantrip tab to wherever you wish.

No cause it came from a feat. I cant drag from the cantrip bar that's on the bottom that I know of. When I try dragging from the cantrip bar, it makes a 'locked' sound.

Your known Cantrips should be listed on the 'Common' tab of your Spell book. Is it not there for that character that has Spell Sniper?

No it's just gone

That be very strange.

Have you done a Verify Files yet?

And, are you using or have ever used Mods with BG3?

I recently did something careless and left the hotbar unlocked, then accidentally "flicked" an item instead of merely clicking on it: *poof*! It was gone.

I was able to to restore it from the Common tab of the character sheet by simply dragging it back to where it once was.

It's not in the common tab, it seems as though it's considered a feat rather than a spell of some sort

Even though it is from a Feat, it should show up in 'Common' tab.

Have you done Verify Files?

It's a bug. Random things are Banished from the Hotbar.

Worked for me with Eldrichblast from Spell Sniper.

Very nice. :)

Glad there is at least a workaround!

Have Fun :steamthumbsup:
