Error when using "status effect"

[Милф Хаус]

I encountered a problem. The talent Torturer allows you to apply status effects that are in the weapon bonuses with 100% probability during busic attacks. When attacking enemies with such a weapon, the inscription "error (in red) when using "status effect" (I noticed something similar with Suffocating and Acid)" appears above the character under this talent. Enemies have no immunity. I do not use mods. I did not find a similar problem on the Internet.

My guess is that this is because the Suffocating and Acid status effects are applied even if the enemies have armor, and the Torturer talent allows them to be applied "through armor" and this causes an application error.

Or is the problem something else? Maybe I don't understand something

Suffocating and Acid aren't affected by the Torturer talent. They're always applied. Torturer is very specific in what it affects.

That said, I'm not sure its entirely clear what the problem is. You're saying there's an error text appearing instead of a status effect or...? Perhaps include a screenshot. Would make things more clear.

If I understood correctly, the talent Torturer not allows to apply status effects as Suffocating and Acid that are in the weapon bonuses with 100% probability during busic attacks?

It's just that Wikipedia says that it is applied if a bonus (such as poison, fire, acid, suffocation, necroflame) is present on the weapon (according to my tests, it only works with poison, fire). Incorrect information on Wikipedia? Regarding the pop-up error... I checked yesterday without using the talent and it also appeared when Acid and Suffocating did not work when attacking with a weapon. For some reason, the game signals that the chance to apply them did not work, as I understand correctly.

If the talent does not work on acid and suffocation, then essentially there is no problem. I thought that the error that popped up above the character's head said that 100% triggering from the talent did not work and went into error.

If I send a screenshot in another language is it okay? For some reason the language in the game does not want to change at all.

Given that acid and suffocation only damage armor, they can’t hurt HP, those effects have to apply regardless of armor. It wouldn’t make sense for them to be affected by Torturer.

As for Torturer having an effect on basic attacks, I’m not aware of it doing so. A fire wand might ignite the target, but a lot of that comes from the fire surface it can create and Torturer. I’m not aware of any specific basic attack effects from that talent, though I haven’t read the description in a few years at this point.
