Blood Rose Elixir - potential BUG [SPOILER]

[GESTALT]

After fighting on the Lady Vengeance when Malady gets you into the Hall of Echoes I loose the permanent effect of the Blood Rose Elixir. I had this today before the patch and just tested it again with the patch - same result. All buffs removed, added spirit vision - bam.

Is this fixable? Is this intended? Is there a workaround?

Is there a similar event later on so I may just reload an earlier save and drink the potion after this fight/event?

[GESTALT]

Nobody used that elixir and ran into that problem?

I ran into this bug and it's annoying. Save Blood Rose Elixir 'till the end of the game. There's a lot of bugs with this buff. Mirror, Hall of Echoes and others.

[GESTALT]

Was wondering why the heck it is a temp buff in the first place... expected problems. Why not just add +1 to every base stat and be done with it? Gods. Or make it undispellable, like certain unhealable statuses on NPCs.

What amazes me is that this bug was spotted from the game launch time. We've got a big patch 4.3 GB today and they still haven't fixed it.

I heard someone lost bonus points at Driftwood Arena, but I ignored it and just drank it at the start of ACT2. Guess what? Dur, I lost my Elixir bonus at Driftwood Arena. I'd recommend that you drink it after the Driftwood Arena.

Actually pisses me off big time. What's it with devs these days not bothering to fix their ♥♥♥♥? And guess what, just like another infamous devteam (Bethesda) which provides the ability for modders to fix these things it then disables achievements doing so.

GREAT MOVE. Well thought through out.

But cramp "Honor mode" into a buggy mess like this. Congratulations.

Well, I didn't need it much. It's just 5 points and combats are pretty easy after Act2.

Surely, they must be busy...



to nerf luck Charm, skills that not so important
...and deleting bugs reports, I guess?

That's not the point. They just implement this into the game complete with a book with a "hidden" recipe, an encounter with the witch, the fluff talk, another book about those roses and ... *pooof* buff gone.

And it's six point, one for every attribute.

Reducing the modifier of a Skill that works as intended is a bit different that searching for the errors in the code of something that is not working.

One can be reliably done in a single minute, the other is a scavenger hunt.

I created a thread about this last week or so. I ran into the same problem. I do not believe there is a fix or workaround yet.

[Serchine]

Change the buff into a talent could easily fix this, but Larian just doesn't care. Maybe someone could make a mod.

[Guy]

They fixed a lot of bugs that no one complained or cared about instead of the actual things that bothered people

[GESTALT]

They sold their 1 million copies and we can go fugg ourselves having already paid the full price. Last time I buy a game full price. Early Access my ass...

[FieserMoep]

Yea, lets complain that they fix nothing on the day a major patch arrived!
