Beastlord Related Bugs (BRB!)

[Darchon6]

<p>I have recently come across three annoying / game-breaking bugs on my beastlord:</p><p><strong>1.</strong>  <strong>Mirror of Reflected Achievements - </strong>Apparently, this mirror wasn't designed to accommodate the specialization choices of 16-17 indivudual warders.  Upon leaving your house after storing a profile on the mirror, all of your belongings inexplicably evaporate.  Strangely, my tradeskill apprentice and saved AA profile still exist somewhere in the abyssal void of programming since they weren't dismissed by conventional means.  Consequently, I won't be able to store an achievement profile until a GM returns the wayward mirror to my overflow slot.</p><p><strong>2.  Achievement Counselors - </strong>Just like the aforementioned mirror, the achievement counselors weren't designed to accommodate the beastlord warder specialization trees.  The default user interface doesn't display more than six selections in the respec window.  As a result, I find that I'm unable to reset my character development choices since the option was overwritten by one of my many warder categories.  Regardless, it seems rather counterintuitive to allow players to respec their warder specialization options from the counselor since they can conveniently do so from their alternate advancement window an infinite number of times.</p><p><strong>3.  Savage Blaze (TSO endline ability w/ 5 minute recast) - </strong>15% of 600 savagery = 90 != 15.  nuf' said.</p>

<p>Here is one of the annoying bugs I found related to the UI for the Beastlord:</p><p>The <strong>Beastlord Hotbar </strong>when set to "minimized" doesnt remember its Hotbar settings for <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Icon Size</span> and <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Icon Padding</span> between gaming sessions. This is probably due to an issue in the <strong><em>eq2ui_mainhud_beastlord.xml</em></strong> itself.</p>

<p>This would be considered an "itemization bug":</p><p>Pretty much all crafted (and many dropped) two-handers for beastlords lack agility as a statistic. Bo Staffs at least should have Strength, Agility, and Stamina.</p><p>Alot of other two-handed Spears or Hammers aimed toward Priests could have Wisdom, Agility, and Stamina or Strength, Wisdom, Stamina. Those aimed <em>primarily</em> toward Fighters should have Strength, Agility, and Stamina as well.</p><p>Basically weaponry in general should feature <strong>triple stats</strong> for the cases where <span style="text-decoration: underline;">multiple arch-types</span> are using them.</p>

<p>Any armor that you recieve from quests in Sundered Frontier or Stonebrunt Highlands isn't useable for BL...</p><p>edit: ...let me rephrase, much of the armor that you recieve as quest rewards is unusable. I went through the entire SF questline in my gear from the Cloud Mount timeline...at level 86, I popped over to DoV just to pick up the decent starter quests armor and then finished out the SF line...</p>

The minimized hotbar itself is VERY sensitive to where it lets you click. Primarily it will only let you get the right click menu on the far left of the bar <em>or</em> right below the bar itself, and it wont even let you do that (or move the bar) unless you have the bar size set to a width that shows ALL the icons horizontally (like the large bar). All in all its pretty buggy UI element right now.</p>

<p>While not a bug exactly, needs a primal tab in knowledge book. the resone being when BL's gain these and they right to spell book they can easy become lost among the other ablities.</p><p>Unable to tame dreadanaught's in spitpaw a problem becaue they are only boar mob in game that looks like a boar.</p>

<p>Did.t know about the right clicking on the bar, good to know still think a primal tab would be nice too a bit cleaner.</p>

Also bugged, the hotbar itself will reappear every time you log if it was disabled before (I don't like how it only has 8 spots compared to the normal 10, so I just put all the spells from it onto a regular hotbar.</p>
