Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity Original Sin - Help/Tips/Tricks Buff's / Status effect's

Hi guys. I need some clarification on buff / status effect icons. Sometimes during combat i will put 3 buffs on Madora, but only 2 will show up. For example i will see the rain buff/debuff, and bless + OoD, but then for example rage buff doesnt show up. I noticed that quite a few times that not all buffs show up near your characters icon. Is there like, only room for 3-4 buffs on there or something? Also if enemies cast debuff that overrides my buff....like for example AI throws weak on my character that has OoD will both still show or debuff will override the buff? Anyone else had problems with missing buffs? I tried googling and only found one guy complaining about it like a year ago when the game was still on one of those old patches.

Thanks in advance for the help. :) I absolutely love this game and cant wait for the enhanced edition.

Does the combat log say the buff was applied, rather than fumbled?

In a quick test I could easily get 6 status icons to show up on a character, but that was in the initial fight of the game, so there could be issues with more characters and opponents involved (I have not played much in the last couple updates).

Buffs and debuffs that are direct opposites (like hasted and slowed) will cancel each other out (both statuses removed). Oath of Desicration and Weak will not, since Weak also has a Strength debuff, in addition to cancelling out the 50% damage bonus from OoD.

I think it's just a display glitch with the icons.
