Summary:

I believe that the prefab for the 'draining' weapon mod is no longer in the game files, thus removing it from all applicable weapons. Such as Gaun's Share.

 

Output_log is attached. Savegame has been uploaded to a google drive  (Zipping it did not noticeably reduce it's size)

 

Most relevant looking part of Output_log:

 

 

(Filename: C:/buildslave/unity/build/artifacts/StandalonePlayerGenerated/UnityEngineDebug.cpp Line: 56)

Error trying to load Draining from F:/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Pillars of Eternity/PillarsOfEternity_Data\assetbundles/prefabs/objectbundle/draining.unity3d

(Filename: C:/buildslave/unity/build/artifacts/StandalonePlayerGenerated/UnityEngineDebug.cpp Line: 56)

There was an error during load. The prefab at Assets/Data/Prefabs/ItemMods/WeaponMods/Draining.prefab wasn't loaded!

 

I have browsed & searched all of my F:/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Pillars of Eternity and see no draining.unity3d file.

 

 

1) Draining Effect not listed on Gaun's Share Weapon

 

Steps to Reproduce (STR): 

1. Load game file in which you have acquired Gaun's Share
2. Find character currently wielding Gaun's Share
   • In my case Eder was wielding it already as his primary weapon. He was dual wielding it with Ilfan Byrngar's Solace
3. Right click Gaun's Share

Expected Result (ER):

• Display Guan's Share's stats pop-up.
• In pop-up, weapon should have 2 special abilities (in addition to the 'fine' attribute)
  • "+30% of Grazes converted to Hits"
  • "20% of Damage restored as Endurance"

Actual Results (AR):

• Display Guan's Share's stats pop-up.
• In pop-up, only 1 special ability (in addition to 'fine' attribute) is displayed
  • "+30% of Grazes converted to Hits"

2) Guan's Share does not give endurance to wielder when damage is dealt

 

Steps to Reproduce (STR): 

1. Load game file in which you have acquired Gaun's Share
2. Find character currently wielding Gaun's Share
   • In my case Eder was wielding it already as his primary weapon. He was dual wielding it with Ilfan Byrngar's Solace
3. Have character take damage in combat (so they are not at full endurance).
4. Have character deal damage with Guan's Share as primary weapon

Expected Result (ER):

• Character should gain endurance equal to 20% of the damage they dealt
• Combat log should show Guan's Share giving character health (directly after showing damage dealt by character)

Actual Results (AR):

• Character does not gain endurance
• Combat log does not display any reference to character gaining endurance.

I saw that this was addressed in the patch beta support forums  http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/81142-20-bug-draining-weapons-no-longer-drain/?hl=draining

 

Is still broken for me too. Hope it gets addressed as soon as possible.
