[BUG] Hexxat's death script (spoilers)

fong

I've encountered a couple of bugs with Hexxat's death script. The expected behaviour is that when she reaches 0 HP (or 1HP maybe? Not sure how it works) she should go into gas form and retreat to the PC before dying properly, coming back to life with full health later on. There are two situations where this doesn't work entirely right.

First, when the PC is charmed and Hexxat dies, she reverts to cloud form and retreats to the PC, but then doesn't die properly. She simply sits there - enemies and the PC can continue to attack her but nothing happens.

Second is when she's hit by an insta-kill spell. When hit by Symbol: Death (and possibly other insta-kill spells, I'm not sure) she simply dies like a regular NPC and then when you raise her she dies again, this time doing the expected retreat to coffin. She then revives herself as normal.

So I also encountered a bug like this and oh man is it the essence of gaming breaking I have an unkillable Hexxat she got stuck in gas form and after dying to a trap and then when she didnt comeback I tried to res her and she appeared as gas came back and was still gas she literally stays at 1 hp can hold weapons and attack things but cannot be completely killed... and to make things worse I dont have a back up save anywhere close to where I am =/

I have this issue also, She has been stuck in the cloud and unkillable.

I had the same problem too. I couldn't do anything to change her form back to normal, until I kicked her out of the party and took her back again, and it worked, she went to the PC and died properly.

Let me just agree on that, Totally happened to me too.

It may be a dialogue problem. I had the same issue, and when I kicked Hexxat out, she came and spoke to me, but not a "leave the party" dialogue, but what looks as though it may have been a lovetalk. After that conversation, she died. I rested and she came back normally.

@Deucetipher thanks a lot, that fixed my issue with unkillable cloud form

@Deucetipher thanks a lot, just rest with hexxat dead...it works !!

Cantab

Yeah kicking her out and then re-joining worked for me, but now my 'Charname' is stuck with her 'Casque of Dragomir' .... no biggie though.

Cantab

hmm.. just reading other forums, seems this was not a bug, but intentional, think you have to wait for an ~hour for her to change back to normal form....

LiamEsler

@Cantab Yep.

@Cantab: The "have to wait an hour" yes, but the unkillable gas form...not so much.

@LiamEsler: I can't find a bug report on the "unkillable" hexxat unless this falls under #6560...is one already opened or is this new?

Not sure if related ('script problem'), but in TOB, pocket plane, after you summon her (not used in SOA).. initially you have the option to ask her to wait in the PP (like for the others NPCs).. but once you call her into the team, remove her.. she automatically disappears then (no 'wait' option available like for the other chars, that time) ; she just.. go to an exit and..disappear^ She let you her mini bag though.. but never appear again after that ; ??
bug ?? normal ??

LiamEsler

@sunset00 That's a different issue; would you mind making a new topic, just so we can avoid clutter?

sunset00

@LiamEsler ok, i would not mind.. */ i was just not sure if related or not.. ^

LiamEsler

@sunset00 Yeah Thank you!
