Arcane Archer not selectable

Post by Zekzaer »

Another issue with the Switch version I wanted you to be made aware of. Having taken 6 levels ranger, multiple combos of Bard/Sorc/Wiz and uh (any melee class), being any of the elves/half-elf, having all of the requisits... I cannot select Arcane Archer as a class, meeting Arelith requirements.

Not sure if its a coding thing or not, but was hoping it could be resolved any time in the (near) future? Being stuck with Core Classes and not being able to play the classes I want to play is kinda a killjoy.

Thanks for everything you do!

Hi, I'm not entirely sure what is causing that, but there are a few things about qualifying for AA that you might want to check on.

First off, this statement is confusing me:

It reads to me that you took 6 levels in ranger then picked a spellcasting class, then picked up a "melee" class. If this is the case then you have hit the hard limit for classes. NWN does not allow a character to have levels in more than three classes.

Second, as a ranger, you do not need the spellcasting class in order to qualify for AA, that's a QoL change done for the server. So you should be able to go straight from Ranger to AA without having to pick up a third class.

Other than that, just double check your feats and make sure your Weapon Focus is in Missiles; if you took the Archer path, you only have to work about taking that, otherwise make sure you have Point Blank Shot as well.

Let me clarify.

Ranger 6 - with all requisite feats
Bard 4/Fighter 4 - with all Requisite feats
Wizard OR Sorc 6/Fighter 6 - with all Requisite Feats

None of the above combos work on the Switch.
Unsure if it has to do with the fact that the Switch does not recognise the Race OR the Weapon Focus Missiles or a combination of both.

EG Blackguard is NOT selectable for me UNLESS i have 5 ranks Hide AND Cleave, regardless of what the Arelith Class states.
