I just noticed that my player character (Debonaire/Beguiler) is stuck with a permenent flanked debuff. I unfortunately noticed this too late and no longer have any save files from before this problem.

I've done some searching and permanent (de)buffs seems to be a common problem for years, but I'm struggling to find any threads that contain actual solutions.

The only suggestion I saw was to reapply the same debuff, but this didn't work for me. I'm not really sure how flanked works with characters that avoid engagement, so my Debonaire's Cowardice trait may be causing issues.

Is there any known fix for this? I'm perfectly willing to use cheats or even the unity console mod if that's what it takes.

Yeah, console has always saved the day for me in these situations. Resting has worked too, I just didn't want to rest. This sequence of commands should do it:

iroll20s (to enable cheats)
RemoveStatusEffect Player_YOURCHARACTERSNAME Flanked_SE_Armor
RemoveStatusEffect Player_YOURCHARACTERSNAME Flanked_SE_Deflection

I can confirm that resting did not fix the issue. The console commands sound promising though. I'll give it a shot tonight and let you know how it goes.

Alright on a side note, you said your player character so I assumed you meant your Watcher and not a hireling, but just in case I got it wrong and it's a mercenary having this problem you need to swap Player_ with Companion_P_ for it to work.

FIXED!

The console commands worked. Thanks a bunch, I really appreciate it.
