Revelation ability not working

[Simplemathic]

So I am quite far into the game (almost 90 hours) and all of a sudden the Revelation ability (long-pressing the V key) just stopped working at all. It turns out something is with my save files because loading in an older one solves the issue, however, I realized this error a bit late and thus all my autosaves are 'corrupt', my most recent correct save is 2 hours old, so I would need to lose the past 2 hour's progression to get the ability back working... Does anybody have an experience with this? Is there a better solution?

I noticed sometimes noise stopped but a short time and not repeated during sessions. Perhaps try change the binding.

Yeah, I'm facing the same issues. Already tried reinstalling the game, which didn't fix the problem

Hey, thanks for the reply!

Sadly I have already decided to load the last working save and redo everything, so now everything works fine but my misbehaving autosaves are long gone.

A moment ago I ran a game file verification check which ended successfully. Additionally, I'm playing on the latest version of Windows 10 and I always have an up-to-date driver since I regularly check for updates via GeForce Experience.

Understood, thank you for the update !

If the problem does not happen after using new saves, this indicates that save corruption was the most likely cause of the problem, rather than the game files themselves, which is what is being verified by the file check.

In order to mitigate the problem if it ever comes back, you can {LINK REMOVED}manually backup your saves, with the help of our dedicated guide.

If the Issue persists, or if you have any questions, don't hesitate to let us know !

I'm having the same problem. It started out as just the Revelation ability not working. Not 100%, but I think when I leveled up to 25 all the hotkey skills stopped working.

Fixed. I had a weapon equipped that didn't allow abilities. Replaced that and they're all working again.

Reading your comments I realized that I could have made the same mistake: equip something that might block the usage of abilities? If I remember correctly I was able to use other abilities though, but at this point I'm not sure...

It's a legendary Sword called "The blade of Yumminess" it has a legendary skill which says "+250% all damage but cannot use abilities"

Hello, I have this revelation ability unable to work as well. I’m on Xbox so it’s just holding down the eagle summoning button but it stopped working for a while. I believe it happened when I paid to reset my ability’s I could be wrong though but I have no blade of yumminess equipped and double checked all my weapons and armor to make sure none had a debuff like that. I was thinking it mightve been because I didn’t upgrade my spear in a while or something so I did that too but no. I probably have to go back to a previous save unless someone has found the issue?
