Expected result
-----------------------
Some of these spells should offer a 'free' cast or a chance at being not used up.

No refunds are offered

This is also the case for Cloistered Clerics - no refunds on domain spells

[Aren]

Aye, I assume it's because the temp HP was removed from Divine Power, and the refund chance was tied to the temp HP. Seems like the fix didn't work. Kenji, is it possible to tie the refund chance to the ability increase, or perhaps you could add like a 1ab bonus to Div Power for paths, and tie it to that?

[Kenji]

The refund is already tied to the ability increase or Evangelist's AB increase. However, if the caster's stat is higher than 18 for the increased stats, there won't be any increase in stats, thus the detection script fails to detect any existing status effect from divine power.

The refund should still work for Evangelists overall, and will only work for Healers, Defilers, and Cloistered with less than 18 Con or 18 Int. What I'm going to do is introduce a series of changes and some variables to ensure this is no longer the problem.

Sounds good! Thanks for your time and effort, Kenji!

The damage and healing from the new cantrips seems lesser then what was stated it would be on the announcement post?

[WanderingPoet]

And the cloistered path granted you a radial menu version of the spell?
Hmm! Okay, that's good to know. I think I know how to fix this.

Yup exactly, it granted me the spell. All the other spontaneously casted spells work well!

Should be fixed within the next few days!

Can confirm that this is 100% working now, thank you!

Both healing spells and domain spells should appear on the quickbar as 'S' spells when none are memorised.

The following bug fixes are in the pipeline:

• Cleric Path Monk AC reduction
• Death Domain power killing undead

Can spontaneously cast domain spells up to 4th level.

However, this is not the case.

The spontaneous cast of domain spells is added via special ability in your dial menu, I'm afraid the healing being spontaneously cast is the hardcoded feature from vanilla NWN and does not function the same way our custom spontaneous spells do.

Try and look for those spontaneous spells from your dial menu and let me know if these domain spells exist there.

Piety gain or loss shouldn't play a role on PGCC just so things like -pray can function without, can you test this on actual live servers?

hi kenji,

many thanks for your quick reply.

AHA! they're under the 'more special abilities' subradial!


thanks for pointing that out, i never would've gotten it otherwise.

if you like, i'll update the wiki to include this info.

Piety gain or loss shouldn't play a role on PGCC just so things like -pray can function without, can you test this on actual live servers?

the reason i wanted to test it first is because my character will soon be multi-classing to cleric and the deity aspect is something i still have to decide...
but if you're pretty sure it works, i'll just go with it.

[sorry to be such a pain in the arse, i've only just started on arelith, still trying to figure things out...]

[Exordius]

Logged in and noticed i now have flare and daze but if i try to memorize them nothing happens, they do not become usable and if i exit the spell menu they are erased from the slots?

[Kenji]

Is this the cleric cantrips/orisons? It might be from certain domains that I recently modified to see if vanilla NWN recognizes the lvl 0 entries.

It would appear that while the entries are recognized, it’s not supported to have domains provide cantrips and therefore it’s automatically wiped on rest or logging. We might have to contact beamdog and see if this can be fixed if we don’t find a solution on our end.

[Exordius]

Darn, i hope a way can be found then to make it work.

[Exordius]

Noticing a lot of spells and now domain powers are capped at dc 10, i think something is broken. Don't know if its only domain spells/powers or also all reflex spells.

[Kenji]

Domain Power CL and DC fix are in the pipeline.

[Zanithar]

There are several issue I have run across so far with respect to this synergy. I have done some testing on PGCC and am currently building a caster and melee option on live to test since live tends to be a different experience. I'll try to collect them into different bug reports for different things within this thread and also offer other the opportunity to add to this with issues they have run into.

Description
==========
Favoured Soul / Evangelist Cleric does not synergize as expected.

Steps to reproduce
----------------------------
Create a 24 Favoured Soul / 3 Evangelist Cleric / 3 Bard and review effective bard song level and song charges.

Expected result
-----------------------
Favoured Soul levels would count towards path abilities for Effective Bard song levels and charges

Actual result
-------------------
Favoured Soul levels do not seem to be considered in the count.

Description
==========
Cleric Domain bonuses do not seem to apply properly in Favoured Soul synergy.

Steps to reproduce
----------------------------
Create a 24 Favoured Soul / 3 Cleric build with Favoured Soul as the starting build and Cleric added later then pick 2 Domains and review access to the underlying Domain abilities.

Expected result
-----------------------
Unknown what is by design and what is not. However some things seem to work and some do not.

Actual result
-------------------
No Domain Feats are added to the character, the following are what I have tested but I suspect nothing works currently:
- Darkness Domain - Immune to Darkness is not added
- Forge Domain - Weapon Prof and Dweomercraft Feats are not added
- Healing Domain - Overheal does not work, debug log says yes but no spell cast from FS spellbook overheals
- Knowledge - Scribe Scroll is not added
- Magic - Scribe Scroll is not added
- Suffering - Overheal does not work, debug log says yes but no Spell cast from FS spellbook overheals
- War - Weapon Proficiency (martial) is not added

Domain Powers do not scale with Charisma for DCs, the following are what I have tested but I suspect nothing works for Charisma currently:
- Earth Domain - Stonehold Domain Power sits at 12 DC for a 24 FS / 3 Cleric w/ Earth Domain and 38 Charisma
