Blackguard Summon Stat Bug

Post by LokiTheDamned » Tue Apr 30, 2024 11:26 am

Description

Blackguards can increase the strength of their main summon via the Bull Str spell. I have 1x use per rest items for CON. I used them while my summon was out, and it dropped every stat of the summon to 8.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Be in the Underdark.
  2. Be Blackguard.
  3. Summon Anything
  4. Cast Bulls Strength (Blackguard Spell) = Stats FINE
  5. Cast CON spell via item = Stats set to 8

Expected result

Stats other than STR should not be affected by the casting of spells via the Blackguard unless using a summon buffing item.

Actual result

Stats are set to 8 upon casting another zoo spell on self while in the Underdark.

Just to be sure, it might be a good idea to check if it looks right in the combat log - occasionally the stat page lies.

Though rare, I occasionally see the summon stat page seemingly fail to load correct stats and attack bonuses, but the combat log still shows proper attack bonuses.

The combat log generally tells the actual state of things, whereas the stat page is usually correct to within +- 1 ac, AB and occasionally is completely off.

I also think the hit points on the monsters small party character icon (on the right side of the screen) is reliable, perhaps the hit points are correct there, even though the stat page shows 8 con?

Everything was weaker HP wise, and in the combat log it was getting -1 to hits.
