Hey everyone,
 
We had an old bug awhile back which seemed to have regressed in this beta build. I'll make sure it gets looked at again. 
 
Thanks for your assistance everyone! Keep up the awesome work!

Hello HawkSoft,
 
Apprentice's Sneak Attack is a lesser version of Sneak Attack. If you look in the description of Apprentice's Sneak Attack, it says that it allows the character to imitate a rogues sneak attack, taking advantage of the opponent when they are most vulnerable.  So if you read Sneak attack, it will give you the full description. 
 
You could say it works similar to how spell descriptions worked in DnD 3.5.  It 3.5 the lesser spell would have the full description, and the other version of the spells would say just like lesser spell but with these changes. Only that the cross-class talents came in PX1.
 
Cheers!

Hey HawkSoft,
 
This is intended. This feature has been around since release. The description window opens up to a max of 3 windows to prevent spamming the description windows. 
 
Thanks!

Hello HawkSoft,
 
Nice find! The area name is missing strings which why you are seeing the missing guis. I have written up a bug report and added it to our database.
 
Thank you for your support and helping us out in the beta!

Hey guys!
 
I checked out all of these issues and everything seems to be working. Let me know if these issues come up again once patch 3.0 goes live. 
 
Thanks!

Hello Thullmar,
 
Welcome to the forums and thanks for joining us! As you probably guessed, updating to a new OS can complicate thing. Just make sure that you update all of your drivers and run Windows Update multiple times. 
 
Also on Steam, please verify your game cache and see if that helps as well. In your Steam library, right click PoE > Properties > Local Files > Verify Integrity of Game Cache.
 
Thanks!

Hello khalysto,
 
After looking at your logs, I notice that you have EVGA Precision X installed. Please disable that application as it is the reason why your game is crashing.
 
Thank you for your support! 

Hey Dumaraz,
 
Welcome to the forums and thanks for joining us! After looking at your logs, I notice you have EVGA Precision X installed. This application has been known to cause frequent crashes to the game. Please uninstall or disable the app and you should be good to go!
 
Thank you for your support!

Hello Nilxain,
 
Welcome to the forums! Are playing from steam? If so please verify your game cache and see if that fixes your issue. If not, could you please upload a save and an output log so I can take a look?
 
Thanks!

Hello Sir Walter,
 
Technically there should be no issues with using a save from 1.0.3 into 2.0.3 but a lot of changes have been made since then. The only way to find out is to load up the save. If you like, you can upload the save and I can check it for you.
 
Though I would recommend starting a new game.
 
Cheers!

Hello meowbeast,
 
Thanks for letting us know about this issue. Fortunately we are already aware of it and it should hopefully be fixed in the next patch! 
 
Thanks a bunch!

Hello Valasty,
 
In order to progress on Durance's quest, you will have to have him in your party and camp in the wilderness. You will have a vision about Durance's staff which will then prompt more dialogue with him.
 
After loading your save, it took me 4 camp attempts to finally get the vision. So it looks like just need to get some more camping done
 
Let me know if that is the case.
 
Thank you for your support!

Hello everyone!
 
I too can confirm that the new OS X Update 10.11.2 has fixed the issue. Huzzah!  If anything else comes up, please keep me informed! 
 
Cheers!

Hello ntt,
 
Since verifying your game cache didn't work, I would suggest doing a fresh reinstall of the game. Can you please upload your save file via dropbox so I can take a look at your save? I made 2 new games today and I was able to zone into Magran's Fork with no problems. 
 
Cheers.

Hello Kalam,
 
Have you tried verifying your game cache in steam? Try that and let me know how it goes. If it doesn't work, could you please upload your save file and an output log via dropbox so I can take a look?
 
Thanks a bunch!

Hello Chris,
 
Are you playing on Steam or GOG? Try verifying your game cache and see if that fixes your issue.
 
Thanks.

Hello lost2morph,
 
Welcome to the forums and thank you for joining us! If you go into the menus and click on the Difficulty tab, check you see if "Auto Level Companions" is checked. If it is, that will automatically level up your companions as you find them to your current level. 
 
Just uncheck that option and you will be able to level your characters after level 1. You also have the option to go to any merchant and retrain any of your companions.
 
Thank you for your support. 

Hello everyone,
 
We have contacted GOG and the 2.02 -> 2.03 should now be up for the Mac page!
 
Thank you for your support and patience. 

Hey kujeger,
 
I just tested this out on the beta and I was able to cast wizard's double and then concelhaut's staff and was still able to keep the wizard's double buff. What seems to be the issue?

Hello Reinkaos,
 
Welcome to the forums. The issue you are experiencing has already been posted. Here is the link for your convenience. http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/81579-the-nest-above-the-clouds-quest-doesnt-end/?hl=nest
 
In the future, please perform a search before posting a bug so there aren't any duplications. 
 
Thank you for your support. 

Hello again,
 
Try Nicholas Steel's suggestion, if verifying your game cache does not work, try uninstalling and reinstalling the game. 
 
Thank you for your support. 

Have you tried reinstalling your steam client? See if that works for you. 

Hello maglalosus,
 
Steam should automatically update your game to 2.01 if you have automatic downloads enabled. The White March give the base game additional content which adds new areas, characters, and story.
 
Thank you for your support!

Hello everyone,
 
I apologize for the inconvenience. Please make sure that your graphics card has the latest drivers installed. 
 
If you are playing in steam, please verify your game cache. In your steam library, right-click Pillars of Eternity > Properties > Local Files > Verify Integrity of Game Cache.
 
If you downloaded the game from GoG, please make sure you download and install both of the patches. There is a patch for the base game and one for The White March. 
 
If you are using GoG Galaxy Client, please verify/repair your game.
 
Thank you for your support. 

Hello Ineth,
 
I took a look at your save file and Coordinated Attack is working just fine. As for the accuracy issue, it only affects the UI. If you look at the combat log, you will see that the numbers are correct. You may notice that Eder is gaining 20 accuracy, that is due to Coordinated Attack and Shame or Glory.
 
Cheers!
