Larian Respec mirror bug

[Emphasized]

So i've tried this several times now, but when you respec a character with the new larian respec mirror in the Fort Joy Arena, they get double the attribute points from Polymorph. Once when you put the points in, and you get the same amount when you finish the repec and leave the mirror. Anyone else run into this yet?

Well polymorph does give you extra points but from what you are saying it sounds like they are doubling. I haven't experienced that yet. I used the mod that was community based and in my next playthrough I'm not using any of the Larian copies of the community mods because the Larian version suck.

Polymorph gives you points silly. Respec mirror works flawlessly. The only bug I get is occasionally the level up/ green + indicator flashes even though I used all my points. But this is fixable by unspeccing, then leaving mirror, then apply points.

I know polly gives points silly :p What i'm saying is i get double points from it, once during the respec and i get the same amount again after leaving the mirror. So 3 points in poly gets me 6 attribute points. I tried not spending the points and leaving mirror, but they still double.

There's a mod on Steam Workshop, that does the same, puts the respec mirror in Fort Joy, though not in the arena, rather in that part, where you fight those two Voidwoken things, I didn't try respec Polly though. Might try and report, if it does it as well. Might be only the official Larian mod, so you could use the Workshop one, if it proves working flawlessly.

Edit: I'm not at Fort Joy and I'm lazy to create another character to get there. But I'm using the portable respec mirror (the Fort Joy version, it spawns 4 small respec mirrors next to the Braccus Rex waypoint statue on the first beach), that I keep in the main backpack in addition to the Fort Joy respec mirror mod from Workshop. When using it to respec and remove a point from Polly, it removes a point from strength (probably because it's the most top one), leaving me with no spare point in attributes, putting that point back into Polly gives me back that point to assign in whatever attribute I desire. So there's no duping in those mods.
Though I don't know if the official one burns into the save, you might want to start a new game with the Workshop mods. But they work well.

I'm having this problem too, and not with the modded-in mirror. Also happens with the original mirror on the ship. I am not using any mods. The issue is that I can't remember how many points my characters are SUPPOSED to have, since I respecced many, many times before noticing the issue.

To reproduce this, go to Lady Vengeance using a character without polymorph. Dump X points into polymorph, and exit. Voila, you have 2X free attribute points. You can even repeat this by removing all points in polymorph, exiting the mirror and doing it again.

There are other people having the same problem, look:

(What that guy is claiming, about having to not spend the extra points at the start, is unnecessary. The game just bugs out and erronously gives another point when you exit the mirror.)

-----------------

here's an in-game recording of this happening: https://youtu.be/lMwFQCR4baM

Essentially I'm demonstrating the fact that I have no mods installed, and that I am getting two times the attributes. Removing polymorph only takes away one, so effectively the extra point is permanent.

It also does not matter whether or not you spend the points inside, or outside the mirror. It always happens regardless of what you do. (see 1:12 and 1:39 for comparison)

i have the same bug too , respec mirror doubles your polymorph related attribute points after you quit from mirror. You can spend +2 point extra.

On level 10, with only points from levelling and the initial attributes (no bonuses from equipment, etc) characters should have 21 attribute points, on top of the base 10 for each attribute (3 to start with and then 2 with each level up).
