Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - General bad news on the patch

Unfortunately pressing F8 to reload now crashes the game to desktop. As well, in rock/paper/scissors I get a weird blaring sound over my speakers. Never happened before this patch.

I just found out, that since V1.0.130 the elemental resistance is capped at 80%

Well I never liked F8 to reload anyway. I mean, who programs a game that way? Everyone knows Reload is supposed to be F9.

I remapped mine. I wonder if it still crashes if you do that.

Interesting about the resistance cap. Can't say it surprises me though. Most games have a cap like that.

I wonder if that fixes the bug (or feature) where if you have more than 100% in a resistance that then that element heals you. For example if your Fire resistance was 110%, then fire attacks actually heal you.

I also wonder if those cap are applied to element monsters also. Would a Fire element now take 'some' damage from a fire attack?

So many questions...

Nah, i believe you're just soft-capped at 80%, if you cast a Shield Spell you will probably get to over 100%.

Guess zombie trait is broke. The description still says poison heals but at 80% it does dmg and no healing.

I tested that..its hard cap of 80.

This is incorrect. Shield spells are also capped at 80%.

I hate to say it but it does seem Larian is being a bit haphazard with the updates, the last few have had "fixes" that have broken something else. It's a bit of a shame.

Indeed it is a shame. This game was quite fun before - good thing it is possible to roll back patches.

how do u do a rollback on Steam? On GoG I heard its possible but mine's Steam.

You unfortunately cannot roll back on steam. You can, however, tell the game not to update on the properties menu... which doesn't help you if you've already downloaded the new step backward... I mean "patch"

welp guess im screwed. Was hoping to get back into the game but not with this patch.

well if ure all caster guess ure golden but not all of us went the ez mode casters.

I went ahead and posted a request in the mod forum for a roll back mod for Steam users. I don't know if anything will come of it, but I thought I'd try.

Didn't know there was an option to do that but thanks for the effort. ppl are blowing up on steam moreso than here it seems over this patch.

Perhaps if we make enough noise, Larian will consider reverting a lot of these changes.

Like I said before most games have a cap like that and I'm glad it's there. In fact I was shocked you could go over 100% before.

Patch is up? Can't find on GoG :O

Oh, good, now the survivability advantage that mages have over warriors is even more comprehensive.

You have done fucked it up Larian. How could you not test the patch before you released.
