Mask of the Grotto Deep Question

[karpet22]

Does something happen to this item after a while? I just noticed that all the attributes have disappeared from this item https://pillarsofeternity.gamepedia.com/Mask_of_the_Grotto_Deep

 

Is this intended or did I hit some kind of a bug? It used to have + 2 intellect and a jump ability but they disappeared.

Unfortunately that's a known bug that happens very rarely - but it happens.

This was suppossed to have been fixed in one of the 4.0-5.0 patches. I haven't had it occur since that update. Are you updated all the way?

 

edit - oh no, i had merely hoped it had been fixed by 5.0, and i hadn't had it occur to me since then, but it looks like there was no explicit cofirmation that this was fixed. yikes  sorry dude

Latest steam version. I actually waited a year or two after release to ensure bugs like these are fixed   Also it seems the final boss never spawned for me either (but I guess this is intended?).

I never encountered this bug in nearly 3K hours of Deadfire. So it's really not very common. But it happens often enough that you can read about it every now an then in the forum.

depending on your actions with the watershaper's guild and in the lead-up to landing on ukaizo you can have a boss fight, or a limited fight with just two engwithan titans.

Yeas. To be a bit more precise:

 

if the Water Dragon vows to help you later then he will take care of the guardian for you and that means the fight between you and the guardian will not happen.

BUT I agree that this should have been made more clear. Even if you read the corresponding scripted scene

 

(when the Dragon comes to your aid while you are approaching Ukaizo)

you might easily miss what's actually going on and what exactly he did.

Are there no exceptions to these rules? I'm baffled now. I was promised help but I still received none and had to do battle. Was this because my ship was, shall we say, not of this world?

To be even more precise, even if you're not getting the water dragon's help, if you abandon your allies at Ukaizo, then you don't have to fight the boss because the boss will be too busy taking out your allies (at least this was true in all versions before 5.0, I haven't tried this specific ending route in 5.0 yet).

If you were promised help from the water dragon, but abandon your allies, I don't think the water dragon has a chance to come in and save the day, if that's what you're saying happened.

Does "allies" mean one of the possible factions? I never sided with any of them, so I never had any in the first place. If this means no dragon as a helper, that's fine.
