Strange Rlyeh 'bug'?...
If an illithid loses an arm it loses its life drain attack... I thought that involved its tentacles - you know, on its face. How is that a 2-H weapon? Even if it involves the hand, why does it require both of them? Weapon number 63. (Edi's DB lists it as not a 2H weapon, fwiw, so losing an arm should not cause it to be lost). |
Re: Bug Thread: Discussion
The loss of a single arm always removes the default one handed weapon or shield iirc. Whichever is declared first in the unit properties. I haven't tested that though.

I have no idea if shields are always declared first or not. |
Re: Bug Thread: Discussion
Yeah I agree it seems like a bug. Perhaps the drain life attack that illithids use should be #bonus as well so they can keep it with armloss or custom weapons.

Re: Bug Thread: Discussion
That would make the Illithid Soldier unbelievably powerful if each one also got a life drain attack. It would also make the Illithid Lord an amazing thug, even though he's a decent one already.

Rather, the regular illithids maybe want their lifedrain to be a bonus attack so they don't lose it when they lose an arm. This might give them a punch as well... (oh noes?) |
Re: Bug Thread: Discussion
I don't think that would automatically give them a punch. Not sure though.
It wouldn't be a major boon to rlyeh for drain life to be a bonus attack. It's a weapon used by quite a few different monsters and it might be pretty strong on some of them that would like to use two shields or a shield and sword and so on. |
Re: Bug Thread: Discussion
It might be a good idea to bring this up in the CBM thread, as the devs seem to be busy with other things at the moment. This is a change that wouldn't be too hard to implement with CBM.

Barrier is a tower shield, but it can be used by mounted troops.
