Pickpocket DC bug

Post by msterswrdsmn »

Description:
All of the NPC's in an area have a DC that is impossible to beat when attempting to pickpocket them. The exact number varies between 460 and 577. It's not like its one or two NPC's; its every last nonhostile Derro in the Norrah Nog area that has these absurdly high DC's. Wasn't like this prior to the last server reset.

Steps to reproduce:
Attempt to pickpocket nonhostile npc's in Norragh Nuh

Expected result:
A normal pickpocket roll. The hostile spawn DC's are between 8 and 30, which fits for a low level area.

Actual result:
The NWN equivalent of being told to piss off in the most hilariously overkill manner.

Misc Notes:
I've pickpocketed these NPC's before during the last server reset and the rolls were as intended. I haven't found another area with a large mass of nonhostile NPC's that -won't- be me smoked IG (also doesn't make RP sense to start testing in Andunor) so I can't say if this is a server issue or I've triggered something hilairously broken with my rampant pickpocketing in the area.

Sidenote: If a DEV wants to reach out to me (first time back in years and i've lost track of who to contact) I've found a few more wierd things with pickpocketing NPC's that I probably don't want to air over the public forums.

Which Server(s)?
