Bugged Act 2 Mercenary??? Subject description: Not talking about Gmercs |
|
I found a stupid little bug, I think yesterday.
On my HLD Necro, I decided to use an Act 2 Prayer Merc. I put on Insight, Dream Helm, and Bramble. This gives him about 4 auras, (Prayer, Mediation, Holyshock, and Thorns.) What I found odd was, not all of those auras worked. If my merc died, and I revived him, only the last equipped aura item, would work. So if I put on bramble last, neither the holyshock nor mediation would take effect. I still think prayer works fine though. So far the only way for me to remedy this is to rejoin the game with a merc thats alive.
Anyone have any similiar experiances?

did you try re-equipping each item that adds an aura after you revive your merc?

That happens when you move your cursor over a staff or an orb with +teleport[sorceress only] on it.

Not every time, Its happened to me where instead of tele it would be reg attack. But if i held shift it would show the char doing his reg attack but then teleporting. Also a2 mercs have to be re-equiped each time in my experience.

Yes, I tried re-equipping everything.
-Edit- When he's already alive, If I requip lets say, my Insight, neither holyshock or thorns will work.

I dunno. I'll try it next time I'm online I guess. I hired that merc in normal if it makes any difference either.
If anyone has bramble, insight, and dream, could they test it out too? I want to know if its just me or not.

i have a simple merc with my hammerdin.
he only has an insight and holyfreeze.
most of the time i have to re equip just the insight because the meditation wont work.
my friend used to have a summon necro. his merc had throns, holyfreeze and might, they all worked for him no problem.

If the merc dies (this happens with any merc) with multiple aura items when you revive it, only one aura from an item may be in use at a time (act2 merc can still have 2) To get this back to normal, just rejoin the game, the merc will then get all auras from the items until it dies again or if you try to re-equip an aura item.

Thats what I figured out with trial and error. Thanks for confirming it.

Ah yes, i discovered this a long long time ago with my Infinity, Dragon, Dream combo (Which is found to be far more effective, especially for a light sorc(then the ol' Dream-Bramble combo)), but instead of just the last one, it would be the last 2. I would revive my merc, then re-equip Dragon, then Dream, then Infinity, and it would only run Holy Shock and Conviction, then i would re-equip Dragon and its Conviction and Holy Fire. So yeah, re joining is the only trick i could find
