Default Heroes cannot maintain enchantments?

Strange, i was setting up my monk hero Tahlkora as a bonder and noticed that she couldnt keep maintained enchantments like life bond, life barrier, vital blessing, etc. on any ally. The bonds were removed immediately.

what gives?

anyone else notice this?

Yep. Every maintained enchant i've tried with my monk hero has just been removed the instant it's cast.

The one exception was Life Barrier. The hero did successfully maintain two copies for a brief while in the fight. However as soon as the person stops taking damage for a sec, the monk cancels it again. So not much use. I guess that seeing as it makes mainted enchants entirely unusable, a small tweak to the AI might be in order?

this must be a bug..cuz wen i played in the preview the hero monk would use them correctly and it was awesome.Also the Zaishen ele hero has some kind of glitch wen sometimes he will cast spells and cancel them very quickly till he has no energy.

I made my Dunkoro a Boon/Prot and he cast boon as soon as I zone and keeps it on 24/7. Maybe it's just maintained enchantment on other allies they don't keep.

I have used Koss as a succor-monkey (with adrenaline attacks) for the monk & the only time it drops is when he runs out of energy.

Edit: ahh I used shift-click also to make sure Koss didnt remove it.

a way to fix this is lock the enchantment by shift clicking it, that way the hero can't remove it at all

I'm just curious if the hero's aggression setting has anything to do with how he manages enchantments. Have you tried setting your hero to attack or guard to see if it makes any differrence?

I keep watching my Modivation hench doing that. It's really quite weird.


Of all the things out there, noone would have thought that there might be Drakes on the Plain!

Koss: Enough is enough! I have had it with these Balthazar-blasted drakes on this Balthazar-blasted plain!


ownage. I love the last sentence too "Only a fool would fight with a banana-shaped weapon, but a pointed stick, now that's a weapon" or whatever. brilliant. This must be the better half of the dev team xD
