Double Fanged Collar bug
Posted: Tue Jun 02, 2020 6:07 am
So, I'm playing in the Infinite Dungeon after a win, and I'm finding lots of duplicate artifacts. Like, LOTS of them. I have 6 burning stars, for example. Anyway, I end up with two fanged collars, and after dying while wearing one, I lose my head, but I still have both of the fanged collars, one on my neck, and one in inventory. I can literally keep dying and it keeps asking me if I want to revive with the collar, making me functionally immortal. I died 8 times and I still have both collars and am still 'alive'. I don't know if it's relevant, but I had used a Blood of Life on the previous level and two Rings of the Dead before using the Fanged Collar. (it was a brutal fight... but I got him after 11 deaths, lol) I also got 8 ranks in Take a Bite since I died 8 times with the collar, but that's just a symptom of the real problem.
edit: just discovered I can remove the fanged collar. I still have no head slot though.
edit: On careful observation, I noticed that the collar I was wearing had the message 'you have died but that seems to bother the collar not at all' or whatever, but the one in inventory still said 'try not to die' or whatever. I tried switching them and getting killed, and that time it was permanent as it should have been. So I think the bug is that it kept checking the 'try not to die' collar in my inventory to see if I should be permanently dead, but it was setting the one I was wearing to be the one that cut off my head and gave me a Take a Bite point and brought me back to life. (if that made any sense, anyway... I understand what's happening, I just can't articulate it well)
