Lazy mutagens and invincibe swords
Hey there
Couldn't find a mention of a couple bugs in the main post of the bugs topic so here goes:
1- Setting mutagens in the character screen affects stats TEMPORARILY. Meaning, if I save and reload, or in other circumstances (didn't test it thoroughly), the way a Red mutagen affects your attack power and blue mutagen affects your sign intensity DECREASES. I have to manually unequip the mutagens and re-equip them to set things right. This is very annoying as you can imagine as I only check this screen when I level up...
2- Now this bug might get me lots of heat from players who use this exploit, but I think swords with a default buff are broken. I have seen videos and posts by people who are practically invincible because of this bug. Basically , you get a sword with a default buff, like 10% stagger, stun, burning,freeze etc... Ususally these swords come with 3 slots so these people add on top of that buff whatever rune they want. What they get, is a sword that has a 100% chance of causing its default buff... Just search on youtube "witcher staggerlock"... There's a level 20 dude taking down a level 48 archgriffin using staggerlock.
Now I was NOT able to replicate this bug personally. I got the exact same sword with +10 Stagger (on Faroe in a cave) but it doesn't work at all. Same for a +10 stun sword that I had. So not sure what conditions are required to cause the bug... Perhaps it's the sign intensity that is also broken by the way? ( some people exceed 100% using some method..)
