Bugs I encounter (or maybe not bugs - but I'll list things here)

This seems familiar to me like it is an existing problem with gangrel or something but... at some point in the game with my Setite, when I change into my reptilian form my claws do not automatically arm. I have to select them. It worked fine the first couple of hours, not sure what I did to mess it up. No biggy, but imagine me scrambling to hit F1 and select my claws while one of the now more super-powered enemies pound on me.

* The junkyard serial killer guys is VERY tough. He looks to have fortitude and can really take a beating.

* And another comment, being able to remove my heart and stuff it in my pocket is amazing. For one on one and even two on one encounters it is invaluable.





* not a bug

No your right, the Serpentis Claws not coming out automatically IS a bug but unfortunately it's an unfixable one at this time. I spent over 2 hours testing every little idea I could come up with and the best way to side step this problem is to hotkey the claws.

Change into Apep's form, then hotkey the claws. Everytime you change forms, hit the hotkey and your claws will be ready to go. I'm not sure if while in Human form the hotkey will remove itself or not, but I know that it's always available while in that form.

* The serial killer in the junkyard had his disciplines swapped around. He had Protean 5, Fortitude 3 originally. I gave him Protean 3, Fortitude 5 instead.

Because we now have access to Raptor Red's Wolf form I may go back to Protean 5, Fortitude 3 instead, just because that model is so cool.

* I'm glad you like Heart of Darkness, it's a great power. So that it wasn't overpowered, cutting off any discipline usage while it's activated was a good idea I think. A great combo is using Apep's Semblance, then tear out your heart. You become a wrecking ball for 2 minutes.

Holy cow! I didn't even think of combining them... wasn't sure I could, so I didn't try. See why I am a bad gamer?

Is there a thread about how Obeah works? I noticed that it's just one option, depending on the level you bought into. In other words, whatever experience you invested in obeah, just that level is what you have to use. Or do they stack somehow?

Obeah stacks, just like Protean did. If you have Obeah 3, when you activate it you get the benefits of 1-3. Obeah 5 is VERY powerful because you get the Healing, Offense, Soaking Protection, Frenzy Resistance, and of course the Aura Vision.

Obeah is by far the most balanced discipline in TFN. It doesn't specialize in anything, but has no weaknesses either. (Except that it incurs a Masquerade Violation because your third eye opens)

Wow! O.K. That is amazing. I think I am going to spend more time with my Salubri... Except I keep masquerading. Which makes me hesitant to use it. But what the heck, you only live and die twice.

Did you at all encounter Masquerade Violation while running around under Apep's form? When i was testing it i was running around through downtown shapechanged and no violation occurred.

No, I was careful to only invoke in a danger zone and then F8 when I was about to leave it.

That made me LoL

That was another minor bug that occurs. You only incur the masquerade violation while transforming into Apep's Form, not while using it. Weird eh?

URRG! Just died trying to get into the warehouse. Tried to sneak past everyone, problem is when I was discovered that left everyone alive to get me.

[edit]

Playing a new Salubri.

Yeah not much maneuver for sneaking there. Assamite are not the ultimate sneak either but at least they get +2 to it with quietus.

Hey, it's Hollywood, or at least near enough to Hollywood. So people probably are used to see stuntmen running around in weird costumes during their lunchbreak, or on the way to see a doctor.

Ah hah hah hahhh! Got to the last two hunters in the subway tunnel and the both pegged me rapidly as I ran with those burning crossbow bolts. Now I have to do it all over again. I wish I could just diablerize Ash.

Hopefully it isn't a problem that I mention a few things...

-No rubble/Police cars outside Venture Tower(After Society Mission)
Was that intentional? It's still present(just the rubble) when you are inside the building(i.e through the glass doors), but it isn't in the main La Hub.

-Beckett doesn't show up before going to The Last Round to speak with Damsel(about the Alliance)
This might've happened because I went through the alleyway, but I still did get close to the light post where he usually stops you, but he didn't show up.

Also, about Serpentis, shouldn't clicking the left mouse button disable the third tier power, rather than renew it? This is probably known already, but having it active, using the left mouse button again causes a little glitch where, disabling the power with F8, leaves you with the Semblance model, and the only way to change back, is to reload a save..
