Battle Rage

Bug Report

Description: Use of Battle Rage incurrs a -2 AC penalty.  This differs from the description of LORE.   Other functionality is the same as described in Lore.  

LORE: Battle Rage
Quote
Specifics: The Battlerager may rage, gaining a +4 morale bonus to Strength and Constitution and +2 to all Will saving throws. The Battlerager may use this ability 1x/day at 1st level, 2x/day at 3rd level, and 3x/day at 5th.


Possible Side Symptom:  In game the first level of Battle Rage is denoted "Battle Rage 2x/day" instead of "Battle Rage/1x" day.  However, It does  function only once per day.

Location: Tested using character Jacrum Shieldbreaker in Port Hempstead and at various locations around Mistone and Dregar.

Verified: Requested character Varka Cleaveson to test and -2 AC penalty and this was verified.

Reproducable: Yes.  Occurs every time.

PS: Script Wrecked, do you have any idea how to fix the other BattleRage bug?  http://forums.layonara.com/bug-reports/118572-battle-rage.html


Looking inside "feat.2da", you can see the SPELLID column value is 307 for all the rage feats:

IDX     LABEL                                          FEAT     DESCRIPTION SPELLID
293  BarbarianRage                                  1062     6084        307    
326  BarbarianRage2                                 6426     6084        307    
327  BarbarianRage3                                 6427     6084        307    
328  BarbarianRage4                                 6428     6084        307    
329  BarbarianRage5                                 6429     6084        307    
330  BarbarianRage6                                 6430     6084        307    
331  BarbarianRage7                                 6431     6084        307    

2543 BtlRage1                                       16789534 16789529    307    
2544 BtlRage2                                       16789535 16789529    307    
2545 BtlRage3                                       16789536 16789529    307    

Looking inside "spells.2da":

307  BARBARIAN_RAGE                    1062     ife_rage        V      P     s    0x00      0x09       NW_S1_BarbRage

you can see all these feats use the "NW_S1_BarbRage" script to implement the feat "effect".

Unless Layonara has changed the code in this script to check what feat is activating it (not sure if this is even possible), then currently, as implemented, the "Barbarian Rage" and "Battle Rage" feats are identical.

Further, I have had a look in the "spells.2da" to see if there is a potential spellfeat for "Battle Rage" that might have already been included but not referenced, but could not find any matches.

To implement "Battle Rage", it would seem like the following additions would be required:

1) a new spell script for "Battle Rage" (like "NW_S1_BarbRage", minus the "effect eAC = EffectACDecrease(2, AC_DODGE_BONUS);" part)
2) a new line would have to be added to "spells.2da" for the new spell script for "Battle Rage" feat
3) plus all appropriate reference changes to "feat.2da"

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Script Wrecked.

This could be a LORE/documentation error vs. a bug in the game.  On initial glance, it looks like that may be the case.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be identical to barbarian rage, and that the LORE description is simply lacking the correct information. (probably because the original writer made a few assumptions that bled into the text) I'll go fix this... I think I meant to do that when I first saw this thread, but who knows what got me sidetracked.
