Solipsist vs. Solipsist Inner Demons Bug
Posted: Tue Oct 02, 2012 11:47 am
I was playing a level ~33 Solipsist in the Mark of the Spellblaze. The zone had one of those 3-pedestal events. I killed the people from the pedestals and it summoned the demon. The demon had lucid dreaming active so I assume it was also a Solipsist (it may have had other active effects that I didn't notice). I cast inner demons on it and that's when things got weird.
An inner demon spawned on the first turn and the game appeared to freeze. When the game unfroze the log was flooded with messages telling me that the demon took 0 psi damage, and then a single attack message with somewhere between 20 and 60 instances of 0 or 1 mind damage (the total was something like 11.40 damage, I assume rounding was involved). This pattern continued after every attack I made against the demon and nothing unusual happened after it died.
In case it's relevant, my sustains were lucid dreamer, dream forge (which was breaking dreams at the time I think), thought-form: defender, forge shield, and antimagic shield.
The game didn't crash and there don't appear to be any lingering issues. I dispatched the demon and saved and quit. Is there any way to recover the recent game log given that it didn't actually crash? I made a copy of the save directory just in case that's necessary (I'm going to continue playing while waiting for replies).
Also, and this is totally irrelevant to the bug, but this solipsist I'm playing is incredibly good at surviving damage. I facetanked every enemy from the Last Hope crypt simultaneously at level 32. The only close call I've had since a stupid early death was when one of those enemies in the crypt cast a spell that completely prevents healing and does damage (though even there I just had to duck out of the line of fire until it ran out, because my mind save negated all damage from the DOT). Awesome. I'm hoping I'll get to see the content beyond Reknor for the first time with this character.

They will see quite a few nerfs for next release, especially in the tanking department.
