Bug Report: Vampiric Symbols

[S Ø F T // K ! L L]

In my second playthrough (Vampire class, was neat to see how he got ready access to Castle Le Fanu's front door right away, and the welcome message was cool as hell) the keys to the rest of the castle, while already in my inventory, do not seem to work once I leave the Castle area (like when I go to the Throne Room or take the Warp gem out); thank god I had a crystal shard on hand or it would've essentially locked me in the Throne Room inescapably. Also I've picked up copies of Symbol A (blue door key) and Symbol E (green door key). Once I collect the keys again they work, but it stops the second I leave. This didn't happen in my Cleric playthrough and I don't think any updates or anything have occurred since then. Is this something I can fix myself? I'd be interested if anyone else has insight.

are you playing as a vampire?
From what I know because Vampires interact with the castle in weird different ways the castle can just
stop working

Yeah I mentioned my classes for both my current (Vampire) and first (Cleric) files. Seems kinda bizarre that just because the castle door and "cattle barracks" next to the castle automatically open for a Vampire that the symbols wouldn't work for their doors that didn't already auto-open.

Apparently the castle kinda resets it self
So if you get locked out from opening the other doors you have to recollect the symbols

I'm guessing the game doesn't actually check to see if you have the symbols but instead checks to see if you picked them up

I've tried equipping the symbols in my quick item slots so it's not checking for them in your inventory; it probably does check for pickup even though I literally have them in my inventory and thus have picked them up in that playthrough. The symbols do reset so I can collect them again but I almost experienced a soft-lock when I discovered this glitch upon leaving the Throne Room and bumping into a green door I couldn't open from the inside. I warped out with the one gem shard I had, thank god, so I didn't lose my progress or anything, but it's a potential trap for the unprepared that KIRA should probably be made aware of if they haven't already for future updates.

i have a similar problem but its my 1st playthrough, i started as a vampire so i got access to the castle right away, but neither the Vampiric symbol W or E even spawned, i only got the A, and now that one doesnt work either, any suggestions?

W shouldn't spawn as a vampire
E should... I've never heard of a symbol not spawning

Can confirm that playing as a Vampire symbols W and E were missing :(
