ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

This behavior happens every time in the lone bear ambush in May Eyal. I could not reproduce against the pack of wolves, and I haven't found a dragon to test.

If I use a talent on the first combat round after the ambush begins, the talent cost is refunded and the talent is taken off cooldown. If I use an instant ability, multiple abilities will be affected when the round ends. Stdout follows.

As you can see, I use my shielding rune followed by Searing Light. After using the rune, it shows as being on cooldown and I have a damage shield. Once I use Searing Light, the round ends and both talents come off cooldown, and my damage shield collapses. The resource cost for Searing Light has been refunded, in this case causing me to lose the positive energy I had earned. It would appear that the round never happened at all, except the bear has taken damage, and the light spot from Searing Light is still present.

*EDIT*

In my previous post I said the issue never happened in the pack of wolves encounter. First thing after I post I have the above issue in the pack of wolves encounter.

It happens every time against the lone bear, and some times against the wolves. Maybe the number of actors changes things?
