Hello
I experience the same bug a lot, and it becomes incredible annoying. I did some testing in areas where this bug occurs most frequently, and I have an idea why I experience it so often, but I need help to confirm it / advice to solve it.
My setup:
CM-Patch v1.60 + S2EE 3.0 (Core + Alternate Spells + Music and Portraits)
My char:
Dryad level 80, focused on Capricious Hunter
Buffs: Sinister Predator + Ancient Bark
Combo: Ravaged Impact + Darting Assault
Mod. Points:
Ravaged Impact: Perforate - Breach - Blast
Darting Assault: Reload - Throwback - Pierce
Testing setup:
Bug occurs most frequently when fighting in Orc region between Entruag and Blade Fields (lot of Trolls).
Fighting with mentioned combo (including Darting Assault) - Bug occurs <15 minutes.
Fighting with no combo but only with Ravaged Impact - No bug occurs over period of 40 minutes.
Idea:
Darting Assault's modification point Throwback gets reflected sometimes (I don't even know if this is possible), leading to knockback / throwback of char, leading to the bug of being permanently paralyzed.
Possible solutions:
Editing my char to use Wounding instead of Throwback as modification points. (Easy but temporary solution)
Editing all opponents' chance of reflecting knockback to 0. (Do opponents have such skill?)
Finding the source of bug in the game's core files that leads to this bug. (Probably not achievable)
Open questions:
Would someone experienced give their opinion regarding my assumption?
Would someone confirm the tested behaviour by repeating the test themselves?
Do enemies have a "Chance to reflect knockback"? (I can't find it in the Wiki) Or is it part of "Chance to reflect Combat Art" or "Chance to reflect Ranged Damage"?
If "Chance to reflect knockback" exist for enemies, what is this entry called, so I can change it?
What enemies have a high chance to reflect Knockback / Combat Art / Ranged Damage, in order to test it sufficiently?
(Of course I can figure out some questions myself by reading through all the files and learning how they work, but why starting from scratch if I can ask some experienced modders)
Thanks you in advance.
