shurikens have been broken for quite some time now (not able to use flurry of blows with them)

That's an error in the description of the Flurry of Blows on POTM, if not already fixed, it will be next hak update. Shuriken can't function with Flurry of Blows.

Im pretty sure shurikens worked with flully of blows at some point, and should work, as shuriken is pretty useless vs dart and throwing axe, as they dont get (atleast shouldnt get str bonus) so hurling one more per round wouldnt be big deal. Would be nice to be able to make strong alchemical steel shurikens for sure! well darts and axes too..

It never worked on POTM at least, nor in the base game. Perhaps in NwN2 or other servers.

There may be a bug related to spells regarding Invisibility vision and such. If the spell effect ends/is dispelled, you won't see ANYONE or Anything.

Did something--e.g. shadows--cast Darkness on you while True Sight or See Invisibility was up? If so, this is a long-time (and very annoying) bug.

silver candelabra is broken, when used on ground it just disappears. shouldnt it become object?

I'm wearing some crafted electrum plated steel bracers and fighting unarmed.
(Greater) Magic Weapon applies to them as expected, but neither Sonic Weapon nor varnishes seem to apply. Have not tried any other spells.

The issue lies with Greater Magic Weapon (and a few related spells) that shouldn't affect bracers; in DnD, bracers are defensive, whereas gloves/gauntlets are offensive. I'll fix that.

Ah dang. Good to know.

Did something--e.g. shadows--cast Darkness on you while True Sight or See Invisibility was up? If so, this is a long-time (and very annoying) bug.

First time I've seen this bug, I'd say "Yes", as we were fighting Shadows with a couple of people before I was dispelled by "magic doggos". But last time around, I'm quite sure there wasn't any Darkness effect while True Sight was up.

It happens once TS wears off if at any time while TS is up you encounter magical darkness. Something else might trigger it that I'm unaware of, including dispelling, but that's the most common cause. My PC has TS up pretty regularly and that's how it happens to her.

Annoying but I think relogging fixes.

I had a weird effect fighting shadows in the Sullen woods as well - in the whole area, ultravision didn't work - everything was pitch black.

With regards to traps only triggering on hostile players now:

Traps placed on doors will still trigger and damage the opener, regardless if they're set to hostile with the trapper or not.

Krofburg Daily Wares sells Umbrella, but its parasol model, thats too small for umbrella.. I dont think sun is issue in Barovia, so could this be changed to black umbrella instead?

[foxtale]

When crafted furniture becomes persistent in a rental over a server reset, it can not be deconstructed anymore. This is fine, it can still be destroyed and wood is plentiful.

However, "Chair, Old" and "Stool" are immune to all types of damage I tried. (Cutting, bashing, fire, cold, negative) So I can not get rid of them myself when re-decorating.

Rowboat on the second floor by the werewolves doesnt work.

I'll change it.

I'll fix this; also in the next update craftable placeables will spawn with no name/description.

Bless Weapon (and, from what I hear, Magic Weapon/GMW - maybe other weapon enchantments too?) applies to worn gauntlets unless targeted directly onto the weapon.

Not sure if intended, but enemy perception range seems to have increased considerably. I only just got a spawn node within my character's perception range. Quite distant. And they all charged/started using spells and abilities.

EDIT: Tested in a few more places. It's definitely a bit janky - every foe on the same map seems to go into alert and come running, no matter how far away.

I noticed this in two places to confirm. The crags near Krofburg are not easily dodged by keeping distance. And some wolf packs that watch the trail East of Vallaki perceive you at a greater distance than previously. I don't have any strong opinion if this remains or goes back to the way it was before (though making it *too easy to bypass watchful predators meant to add tension is perhaps a bit weaksauce) - just adding my observations.

Those crag cats kill many a newbie lowbie already, whereas that is the target of the fetch quest. As has been stated by myself and several others many times, the server is quite challenging for first-timers, so that this is the part of it that least needs greater difficulty.

It appears after the update it is no longer possible to place food/drinks onto non-crafted tables.

I'll also mention the bug with the tailoring stations here, though I have already a post on it >,>

Most doors (normally locked and not possible to open door) in the Warehouse District of Vallaki have disappeared.

Thanks, found the cause (it affects many other areas too) and will fix it.
