[FL] Whirlwind

Post by Elven Seraphim » Mon Sep 15, 2014 1:22 pm

Alright, so, after some careful consideration, I saved up a lot of epic monies for several feats leading to Whirlwind. I had whirlwind on the main server a few years ago, and now I see a new message saying "You can now whirl again", but I am no longer able to engage in any combat until I relog, similar to permanent parry mode. This happens on first try, every try. It sounds like (from other threads) that whirlwind is somewhat less disastrous in the main server.

If it cannot be fixed, is a refund a possibility?

Sounds like the NWN bug where if you use whirlwind on exactly 3 opponents you get bugged.

Yes, it appears like that, but it happens.... everytime. Have not tested in combat yet.

Also, was the Dexterity requirement changed on improved whirlwind, and, if so, was it changed back again when the new whirlwind system went in, and, might improved whirlwind fix this particular bug for now?

Er, I don't think so? To all the above?

elven, you should be able to do another whirlwind if you get stuck in it. due to it being a free action. If you get stuck again wait until the 10 second timer and then try ww again. that usually broke the 3 man glitch thing for me.

I can't do any combat actions until relog. Trying to eat rations, whirlwind, bashing, combat moves, nothing works, frozen in a parry like permanent combat dance animation. I've tried -makesafe, -dispel , resting, fountain, still unable to do any actions outside of talk/barter/open inventory of containers.
