When creating a character with Awakened Potential, the builder is prompting you to pick a new at-will at level 3 and retrain an at-will at level 7 and 13.  (By the way, this bug has been in there since Psionic Power was added to the builder.)

Is this the way it should be working?  I don't think so, but I'm not the one programming this thing.

Much as I'm glad to see these fixes...I would massively appreciate it if you could prioritise two handed and dual weapons for the next patch.  My Wizard with staff training is still broken and unusable in Vecna and he works perfectly in the old offline Builder.

Posted this in the Technical Issues subforum, as well:

Unable to chose a power associated with the Divine Channeler [Avenger] feat.

Vryloka Blackguard

After taking the Disciple of Divine Wrath [Multiclass Avenger] feat at level 11, I then take Divine Channeler [Avenger] at level 12. Normally this would allow me to select a Channel Divinity power once the second feat is taken. However, pressing the button to select the power does not bring up a list of powers to choose from. Instead, nothing happens.

Bug report has been submitted.

- My avenger was not showing that power of skill made one of his powers a melee basic attack.
- A vampire I made was not showing that he gets a bonus to damage equal to his cha modifier on all vampire attacks.
- Copy to clipboard option for the character summary output does not display line breaks in windows notepad.

So when I select "Mage" for my class, and "Necromancer" for my school, I am unable to pick any of the new HoS powers except for the cantrips.

That should, uhhh, not be.

Subtle problem:

Astral Seal is "Wisdom +2" to hit.   Inside the CB it calcs correctly.   On the power cards it shows correctly.  However when you Export the character, the value in the XML does not include that +2 - it is 2 less than it should be.

Cheers

The Revenant feat "past soul" half elf option does not let you select diletante as a racial power.


Past Soul doesn't do that.  It lets you get a racial encounter power.  Dilettante is a racial feature that lets you make a power choice, it is not a racial encounter power.  However, Half-Elf Soul still DOES let you take Dilettante, and has not been errated.  If it has been removed from the Compendium or builder, that is an error.  Check 'show additional options'.

"Past Soul" is one feat which replaced all of the "Race Soul" feats. The wording is as follows:

You gain the racial power of the race you chose with your Past Life racial feature (if that race has more than one power, choose one of the powers, and you gain only that one). During each encounter you can use either that power or Dark Reaping, not both.

It doesn't say "choose a racial encounter power", it says "choose a racial power". Dilettante should qualify. There is no "Show Additional Options" checkbox in the feat menu.

They've been removed from the online CB, the intent is obvious. It may not have been announced as errata because the new feat is supposed to function identically, which is why this has been reported as a bug.

OCB is not a rules source.

Until the older feats are removed by errata, they remain available, and their removal from the OCB is in error.

Intent is irrelevant.  The rules structure is not.

I don't see this listed as a known issue, but warpriests and channel divinity feats don't interact correctly.  Warpriests can't take any channel divinity feats and other characters can't take take the divine channeller feat to get one of the warpriest channel divinity powers.

Sure, they remain available. Except to anyone using the CB, which is what this thread is about. Are you sure you're in the right forum? We're reporting a bug and you're trying to tell us it's not a bug, while simultaneously saying it is a bug. How about you quit with the semantic garbage and let us report the bug?

Dilettante Powers are not Racial Power, they don't have Half-Elf in their top right corner. They remain X Class Power for the purpose of meeting Prerequisits.

A Racial Feature letting you gain a Power doesn't necessarly make such Power a Racial Power. A Dilettante Twin Strike remains a Ranger Power at origin. As do a Human Extra-Atwill never become a Human Racial Power.

Only Knack For Success is a Half-Elf Racial Power.

Building a Scout, there is no way for me to select stances from the Hunter class. Is this on purpose, or a bug that needs fixing? I was looking to get the Aspect of the Pouncing Lynx, but there is no check box at the top for "show more options" like there is for the utility powers. I was under the impression that since it is a ranger utility power my Scout should be able to take it in place of the Aspect options specifically listed for scouts.

This is correct as is.  Many of the E-classes use this type of set-up.  If a given power or ability has no level, then only that (sub-)class can take the power or ability.  Since none of the Scout or Hunter at-wills are level 1 (they are class "features" instead) you cannot trade one for another via the Super-class (Ranger).

I found the same thing.  I think it is wrong from the wording in the books.

Just a few things I can recall as I've been working with the builder recently.

- Characters with the Avernian Knight paragon path don't actually calculate proficiencies when wielding a melee implement.
- A hybrid warlock|battlemind I built was uable to use any equipped pact blade as an implement for warlock powers. Appears to be a larger issue on the warlock side in general.
- Ki focus expertise doesn't scale the bonus to damage rolls against a bloodied enemy past heroic tier.
[Addition]
- An armbow does not display as a one-handed weapon when applying the magic property to a two-handed crossbow (used a superior crossbow) regardless of if you have the living construct trait (tried with both warforged and shardmind).
- Granite Shield (cleric lv.3 encounter attack power) displays damage very awkwardly, seems to display a + sign where the ability modifier should go.

Having the similar issue, leveling up my wizard (Swordmage Multiclass), asks me for a level 7 at-will power that I can never select because there are no options there, Not even with houserules enabled.

(Also Awakened Potential says its only prerequisite is int 15, but it doesn't appear until level 2 even with my 18 int,)

Oh really? That's great!


Sorry, I didn't see a comment thread regarding updates since the April one and I thought it hadn't been updated. I'll try it out after the update has been applied.


Thanks again.
