Please post your bugs here and we will fix them ASAP. Thank you.

OUTSTANDING BUGS:

1) Desktop icon doesn't work properly.
2) Xbox 360 controller doesn't work with MKXP version unless in DirectInput Compatibility mode.
3) In Crescent Canyon, if you interact with a crack that you can use a mining bomb on and stay in the dialogue window, you get knocked back by any boulders that roll down your tile. This allows you to blow up cracks you aren't standing next to, and it also prevents you from getting knocked out of the map if a boulder hits you at the bottom.
4) World Map menu image doesn't update throughout the game as the actual World Map changes.
5) Traveling Merchant's Wagon doesn't have a map marker.
6) Empty party slots change to Giant Moa sprites after using a Camping item.

8) Thick Sword weapon weight does not match weapon description.
9) If the bomb timer runs out in Mt. Gerra, the message calls it Mt. Gulg instead of Mt. Gerra.
10) Assumed gender is male in the ending cutscene.
11) The kraken's boss battle music only plays if you have the gorgon head but choose not to use it. If you don't have it at all, it just uses the area's regular battle music.
12) If you have tons of items, the "all" section of the item list will only show the first 34 pages or so. The rest are there, but they're invisible and you can still scroll through them.
13) Characters revert to their default colors in a few places:
-In the old mine, when you take the staircase down or hit a barrel, or when you hop out of the minecart
-Airship ride to Pandora for the assassination mission
-Airship ride after choosing not to fight Hannibal alone
14) World Map menu has water colors swapped. Also, there is a gap in the shallow water along the southern coastline of the Southern Contient.
15) Water (dark and light) is switched in the Pre-Intro scene and the Airship Desert scene.

[Letari]

So, I just got back into the game after a couple of months of ignoring it and I'm enjoying the changes and fixes added since then. However I'm currently finishing up "The Mines of Dvergar" dungeon and I've encountered a problem with the sidequest the guide mentions about reuniting Saerina and Zereth Deagroth.

I'm not sure if it's actually bugged or if I've missed a trigger, but currently talking to Saerina then Zereth and returning to Saerina does absolutely nothing. The guide says to go to the secret room, go talk to Zereth afterwards to give him directions then return to Saerina. As far as I know I gave Zereth directions but nothing happens but nothing happens and Saerina doesn't give a reward.

If you wait until you acquire the Staff of Sorrow and Folly, then the side quest deactivates.

[NeoDraconis]

Ah You might want to change how the walkthrough is arranged then because if they folllow the walkthrough, they will never get the reward.

[Letari]

I was trying it before I completed the Staff of Sorrow and Folly (I had one of the two pieces though). That's indeed strange that the Staff of Sorrow and Folly comes before The Mines of Dvengar on the guide if doing it in the guide's recommended order causes the sidequest to be pointless.

At least a Full SP Orb isn't really a big deal to miss.

[NeoDraconis]

Oh I think I know how its possible to get more than one gorgon head. I think it is affected by the hunter's skill to get more monster drops. Just a guess.

Good point. We'll consider re-ordering the Strategy Guide and making it clear that the sidequest is deactivated when you acquire the Staff.

NeoDraconis a écrit :

Good thinking but unfortunately, the Gorgon's Head is not a monster remain drop but is given separately after the battle.

[NeoDraconis]

Oh... well just so you know that I have gotten more than one in my inventory at least once in all the times I played the game.

[Kind_0f_BLue]

Stupefy somehow adds 10 intelligence instead of subtracting 10+10%, at least with the dark phoenix from the hunter quest.

[Kind_0f_BLue]

Tried it with mummies now 2 and it somehow raised their INT from 20 to 48, that can't be right....

[NeoDraconis]

Come to think of it I believe I mentioned that happening before.

[Kind_0f_BLue]

Also, is fire resistance supposed to block 100% of fire damage? When my mage with Blaze hat ( fire res) gets hit by fire spells it displays a halved damage as a blue number but his HP is unchanged. Same goes for coldr resistance and all others.

[info]

The blaze hat and other synthesizable equipment are special and provide 50% absorption of elemental damage.

Null Element spells (e.g Null Fire) resist 50% of fire damage.

The blue number is showing that your character is being healed. Presumably their HP isn't changing because they have full health.

[Kind_0f_BLue]

Oh, thanks for the fast answer.
What is it about stupefy buffing enemies instead of debuffing them?

As I asked in Post #809 and '810?

That looks like a bug. I'll add it to the main bug report.

[Kind_0f_BLue]

I don't know whether that was intended or not, but the Thieve's backstabbing adds a buff that adds +100+ CRT for the round following the attack aswell. The description just says the backstabbing attack itself has +100% crit.
