Dual backstab not working?

La.Bonnita · **Posted:** Sun Jul 27, 2014 7:33 pm

I have a GM rogue with max str/dex and a ritual spider dagger. Haven't landed a second backstab all day and now I'm on my other character watching another rogue having the same problem.

What's going on?

Probably tied to the update about 'pre-combat round status displaying'.

I will look into this.

Thank you. We ran some tests for an imm that supposedly logged it to send to you. Hopefully it helps.

Either this has been resolved or its to do with 2 handed weapons. Ill do a quick check with a pigsticker regarding it. (unless your large size or greater then you might have an issue with the adjustment stuff)

Currently am unable to reproduce the problem:

Code:

You are using:
<right hand>         an oak-handled straight dagger (brand new)

An old orc makes a strange sound as you stab him in the back!
Your second backstab does UNSPEAKABLE THINGS to an old orc!
An old orc is stunned, but will probably recover.

Also had a player try it out with a two-handed dagger with no problems. Looked over the code changes and don't SEE anything suspicious. Currently suspecting there is a gag issue on your side, but I've been wrong before. I will need you to PM me a relevant chunk of log before I can do any more investigation.

Just looks like this over and over:

More relevant would include the name of the character and the current equipment load out in addition to the character being backstabbed. Then I can attempt a more precise repro.

Ainhoa was wearing:
Twisted black root
Krychirean bloodstone necklace
A black silk gown (the really pretty one from Fecket's)
Ritual spider-shaped dagger

Alory was wearing an assortment of mithril from the wandering legion and a pigsticker.

I can attempt it again later this afternoon and see if it's still a problem.
