Blightheart 'empowered kills'

[Clover Creepy Girl™]

I have the arquebus 'blightheart' and at its third level it requires the user to kill with empowered abilities you need to do it 10 times. I will empower an ability, use it on an enemy, kill that enemy with that shot, and then nothing, it doesnt count it. I have no idea what is going wrong or what I am doing wrong. Can someone help?

You need to use an empowered normal attack, not an empowered ability. Use empower and click on an enemy!

I didn't even know that was a thing :O

damn I was clicking around with empower like a madman except on enemies.

Hmm actually doesnt work...killed banch of enemies after empower attacking them directly and didint get any kills towards progress...think its bugged, no matter how I use empower and kill i got only 1/10 so far and I kill a lot with that weapon.

I can confirm that empower skill works for progress. I did mine with empowered double shot throughout.

If your progress is stuck, it's either a bug or you didn't really make the kill (like someone else stole it from you).

Nah those were confirmed kills in log...Must be bugged. Same as my modwyr just stoped talking after meeting her previous owner...Option "talk to" on detail just disappeared and it went completely silent..Probably bug that pisses me most in my playthrough xD

Worked for me, doubleshot, as somebody up there.

And talking sword stop talking if you released soul in him, like while meeting his previous owner.

What do you mean by doubleshot exactly? Its modal is aimed shot and dont see any doubleshot ability on my panel. Spell?

Just to add another confirmation on this. I did the same exact thing, empowered double shot (the ranger skill). It worked, and was counted.

[FredDie]

I see...didint figure out a way with wizard, nothing counts.

[Clover Creepy Girl™]

I eventually got it, I was having a problem that when I killed the first enemy in an area, or when I loaded the game up for the first time, would not count toward the quest. It did count empowered ability kills though. I was using a ranger/rogue and the rogue abilities counted.

Did anyone ever figure out how to do this on a wizard? They don't get weapon abilities and blightheart doesn't seem to advance if you empower a spell.

[FredDie]

Nope, ended up ditching that weapon.

[Puddles the Corgi]

Wizard: empower an ability and kill an enemy with that ability and it counts. (I know its necro, but this was only thread I could find trying to get help)

I actually have a bug with this one, When I was at 8, I killed two enemies with the same empowered double shot ability and now it's stuck at 10/10 but won't upgrade.
