Issues with an Advocate Prayer

Post by oath2order »

So my faction tried to raid CCC today.

We killed the 2 Fallen and 2 IBs, but then ran into problems. Here is the entire chatlog.

Rebecca Marquis at numerous points granted Hunter of Iniquity, which should have allowed us to see the unworthy soul. It did not.

We had someone come in with Lamp of Clinging Purity to reveal the person.

Thanks for flagging this. We did some testing and Hunter of Iniquity does indeed reveal invisibles, but was riddled with bugs on other fronts that made it unusable. The simple Occam's Razor explanation for what you encountered is that Liemannen was both hidden and invisible. Hunter of Iniquity (working correctly) is supposed to display invisible people present and make hidden people turn up on a single search. The latter didn't work and that made the former irrelevent.

Hunter of Iniquity is supposed to make its users auto-find hidden people and that element wasn't coded. Also a block against people attacking folks they hadn't detected was also not properly overridden by Hunter of Iniquity.

Fixes for both bugs will be part of the next patch.
