Bug Report:
with latest Patch(017) Hunter’s WoodLore doesn’t seem to work - it doesn’t account the change in DA and att. speed when you invest points in it.
Checking the dbr now, but to confirm: you have 1h/2h ranged or spear?
It works fine, you just require the appropriate items as the tooltip states. It will be highlighted in a future patch.
Arcanist + Earth = ArcanistStorm
Ideas:
Weathermaker (Fire, Cold, some Lit, Aether)
Starcaller (plenty of “raining death” skills)
Wizard (classic)
Ugh, thanks for the report…it scares me, not sure where the hell Storm is coming from, but I now know to look into it.
EDIT are you sure you have v017? Arcanist + Earth or Storm should just be missing a tag…
// Arcanist .plus. Rogue gives Eccentric
tagSkillClassName0527=Eccentric
// Arcanist .plus. Earth gives
tagSkillClassName0528=
// Arcanist .plus. Storm gives
tagSkillClassName0529=
// Arcanist .plus. Dream gives Weaver
tagSkillClassName0530=Weaver
I shall check into this. In the mean time, here’s another little exhibition video. GQ’s Earth + Arcanist.
You may want to start a thread in Mod/Discussion for me to fill up with Grimarillion chat 
Riftstalker done, can not wait for new version 
v018 just went up with v0.4 of Zenith, including the Riftstalker.

Provided there are no bugs reported, I think I will make another y-release with this version in the next day or so.
Now I get to fulfill my life goal of Nightblade-Riftstalker and be everywhere at once. 
it’s a pity that spears no longer can be used as a one hand weapon in v0.18
Huh? that is not intended, what do you mean?
Yeah, I always test spears before release as they have a habit of becoming invisible, but I assume there is a specific skill, likely in Zenith that went from my version to Ceno’s version when updating.
But I will put it back…about to rebuild this as Ceno already provided a patch.
In addition, I just added Bacon to the game…but need to test that still.
Anyway, let me know what you mean, I will hold off uploading this until I can fix whatever I may have broken.
in v0.17, a spear can be seen as a sword(mace, knife etc), staff can be used as a two-hand weapon(melee or ranged, it’s funny and interesting). for example, two spears duel-weilding is possible in v0.17， but in v0.18, i can’t. espeially some skills that triggered by a one-hand weapon or a two-hand weapon. so i think it’s a pity that the changes made in v0.17 for spears and staff lost in v0.18.
I’ve never been able to DW spears. That’s not a change we have influence over on our side of things, it’s an engine interpretation thing, and the engine has not changed.
Yeah I have no idea what he is talking about. With how cryptic he is being, it is impossible to tell what is broken.
At any rate - spears should not be able to be dual wielded anyways. Staves are not two handed weapons and should not be regarded as such.
Ugh.
This is confusing the hell out of me. Were you using Warfare or NB for DW spears in v017? I am trying to figure out what changed, but it makes no sense to me as all I did for v018 was Zenith related.
My idea was to make spear work anywhere 1h melee works.
For Staffs, I went and put staffs as acceptable anywhere 1h/2h ranged or 2h melee or offhand was required. Never got time to play test this, but I felt it would make staffs more interesting.
But I never purposely removed DW from spears. Looking at the dbrs now, I am not even sure what controls it.
Nothing does, to my knowledge. Whatever ‘dualWieldOnly’ interprets as a 1H melee weapon can be dualwielded, and I don’t believe it accepts spears being as there’s no 1H desigination for the items.
maybe i missed something. i just used my lvl 36 outrider, in 0.17, i can use a staff trigger cadence and sunder, but now i can’t.
maybe i express something wrong, but what i really mean is that i think changes made in v0.17 for spears and staff can be kept, if possible spears can be really used as a one-hand weapon(duel-weilding is best if any possible)
Are we talking about SPEARS or STAFFS?
v017 and v019 (which is uploaded in the OP btw) have STAFFS set to work like I want for Grimarillion (so different than Zenith, which does not have STAFFS). v018 got the Zenith upgrade to 0.4 but I did not go back through and set the qualifying weapons like I did for v017. It should be back to how it was in v017 in the current v019.
Anyway…DW SPEARS, should never have existed…I can do that, but we need to discuss this more first.
So have at v019 and go find some Bacon.
