Maximum Rage Being Reduced Randomly After Battles

[fastjaw24]

Well like the title says my maximum rage was 68 with the leadership valkyrie and 89 with the rage valkyrie. Well after doing around about 5 fights I came upon a difficult fight so I used two rage bottles only to find out my maximum rage was 47 all of sudden with the leadership valkyrie and 68 with the rage valkyrie.

So I went back and went down my save list cause that did not seem right to me and sure enough about 10 saves down I found a save where I had 68 rage with all the same equipment on as I was still wearing about 5 fights later and using the same leadership valkyrie I have been using all game. I never use the rage valkyrie.

Now I have double checked every thing on my character and I have had well over 47 maximum rage for probably 20 levels and I only have 1 piece of equipment that effects my rage and it gives me +10 and its not a morale piece that goes down.

So without a doubt that I missed anything including switching gear or using the wrong valkyrie it just randomly went down from 68 to 47 after 1 battle and now I have to replay about 2 deadly and 3 invincible battles on impossible which is a good hour and half of gameplay that is not too fun to repeat.

Next part is me just ranting about how bad the game is in its current state. So read on if you desire.

Seriously do not know why I stand behind any game company these days after torrenting The Legend and making sure I wasnt getting ripped off on an indie game and finding out how good it is I bought it right after and then went on to buy AP and CW when they came out. And played all 3 within a few days of release start to end over a few weeks and never had a problem and this game has so many problems it makes me wish I would not have bought it now. Between 3 stuck quest and a few Ice Dragon battles that non stop crash and then the probably close to 100 random crashes that equal about 1 an hour including having to repeat many battles cause it happens after battle makes me wish I would have torrented this game.

I would have paid 50 dollars for this game when I heard it was coming out cause I liked the series that much but after playing Wotn I feel I got ripped off on 30 dollars. One thing you can bet on is the next King's Bounty is going to be a torrent for me after this pile of crap I paid full price for and stuck playing with bugs and every patch requires a game restart....like wtf.

Oh yea may add this to the bugs thread I did not see anything about the rage thing on there.

Edit:I found a cheat code I can just type in console and bring my rage back to 68 so I no longer have to repeat 5 battles over which is kinda nice but still unexcusable on the bug part.

Any chance that you cast the Calm Rage spell at some point in one of your fights?

I have been casting that for at least a little while here and there. You think that is what possibly triggered this bug? Pretty sure I got the calm rage spell like 15 levels ago and I use it when I am in a tough battle with a lot of rage and no mana since I am playing the soothsayer which mana is way more important and does way more damage for my class.

I can almost guaruntee that it's what caused it, as it's definitely bugged in the current version of the game. You can pick up a fix for it (and a bunch of other bugs) here

Much appreciated for the fix and thanks a lot.

Weirdly I just got the same issue this morning : after a fight my max rage has been divided by 2, from 89 to 46.. and I'm sure I had to cast the Calm rage spell during the fight....

Playing on a steam with all official patches version.

Having read Bhruic's sticky post about bug fixes, I tried to check the .lua files, assuming the "calm rage" bug was still active and would explain the bug...

First of all, I noticed I could hardly find the .lua files quoted by Bhruic, could you confirm the method below please ??
And when I checked the spells_power.lua, the line was correct, so we can think the 2nd patch was applied correctly, as quoted in that other sticky post :

http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpos...71&postcount=3

That would mean there might be another bug somehow that could decrease my maximum rage after a fight....


To check the lua files, I had to :
- go into C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\King's Bounty - Warriors of the North\sessions\addon
- copied the ses.kfs to ses.zip with winrar
- extracted all files in a "ses" subfolder
- here are the .lua files !

is it correct ??
What if i want to update some files, how do I get my sks file again ? I changed some lines, such as that bug about the troll pacify spell (it was not fixed), and then tried to zip them back with winrar, normal compression... but the .zip file size (1710 Ko) I get is quite different from the sks file (1850 Ko), so I guess I miss some intel about the way to manually patch the game ...

Hey mate, I can confirm that this bugfix works as intended.
I'll try helping you.
Open the ses.kfs file with WinRar (Open WinRar as admin, then drag the file into it)
Find the file "spells_power.lua", just pressing "s" will help you, then scroll a bit and double click it. Open it with Notepad (Editor).

Press CTRL + F and insert

local rage_can_give = math.ceil(mana_can_get/convert_mod)

You should be able to find it.
Close the search window.
Highlight / Mark the text above.
Paste the following

local rage_can_give = math.floor(mana_can_get/convert_mod)

Close the editor and save the file (It'll ask you).
Then WinRar asks you to replace the file within ses.kfs and you agree.

Done.

Thank you Doombrew !

But as already told, the line was already correct... I'll try to check if I can repeat the bug, I played some 5 or 6 hours since then, very often used the calm rage spell, and everything was ok...

Anyway, thanks to you now I can properly edit the lua files, I'll give a closer look to what has not been fixed again !

[Norscan]

Would I have to load an earlier save after applying this fix, or will it fix rage on a more recent save with the bug already in place?


EDIT: I've tried this bugfix and I second what asimovfr said - the line is already what it should be, but the bug still remains.
