    Default Feat swap bug?

    Why can't I swap out Maximise or Past Life: Arcane Initiate?



    Bit sad at the moment.

    SS looks like you have it turned on ?

    Maybe try deactivating max and see if that helps?
    Move along , Nothing to see here

    I turned off maximise, went out of form, disabled animal instincts and reaving roar ... just to be thorough. Result? Nada.

    Only thing that I can think of is maybe a side effect of the "fix" for feat swaps and multiple toughness feats?

    past life init looks like it has a drop down opener the [+]. Perhaps one of the internal selections would work?

    And you are grabbing the text correct? There is the fun bug about being able to actually grab the icon on some feats. (I don't know if that ever got fixed.)


    I also know for a fact the UI click location on some things lie now. Such as on druid/arti pets. You have to click lower than you used to, off of the UI to click on them now to get selections. I hope that isn't effecting this as that would screw up the whole UI there.

    He'd need something listed under old feat,

    I suppose he could try expanding wild shape...

    You are right. I was looking on the wrong side, not paying enough attention. Cat was distracting me with cold wet nose against the arm wanting attention.

    edit: Did you select any of your spells to always have maximize on by chance?

    So I notice that no feat swaps possible on feats chosen before toughness (which I chose at level 6). Can anyone compare?

    Edit: no swapping my dilettante feat, maximise or my past life: arcane initiate feat as far as i can see to be clear

    Course I did ... really though?

    How would that stop me from swapping Rogue Dilettante to Monk Dilettante though?

    I bit the bullet and swapped toughness to power attack with the theory that toughness is the culprit. I'd planned to straight away go do the hall of the mark quest for the free feat swap to hopefully swap a lower level feat for toughness again but turns out I've already done it earlier (so I could tank elite chronoscope in dire bear form at level 8 and then swap to winter wolf after the quest).

    I'll check back in 3 days to let you know how the feat swap turned out.

    Heck if I know. I'm not a Turbine coder and I'm only trying to come up with possible ideas to help you.

    As for swapping rogue to monk Dil... I remember there was a bug a while back such to where you were stuck with what you chose. I don't know if that ever got fixed or if it was fixed and broke again.

    Happy to hear if anyone else wants to chime in on whether they can swap maximise even if spells are set to maximise "always on".

    Drow FvS lvl 20, no epic lvls yet, only lvl 1.0 in EA AD.

    Can swap out all but one of my feats. (expected result)
    Can swap: Maximize, Empower, Quicken, Empower Healing, Toughness (took only one), Improved Mental Toughness.
    Can swap FvS: energy Resist acid, fire, sonic, DR/Silver.

    Mental Toughness is of course blocked.

    Really need to lesser or just TR into a cleric. Oh well, one day.

    What level did you take toughness?

    Do you have it as a prerequisite for something else? Improved Maximize or anything?
    The problem is never how to get new, innovative thoughts into your mind, but how to get old ones out. Every mind is a building filled with archaic furniture. Clean out a corner of your mind and creativity will instantly fill it.

    While we are at it....I have similar problem, Fred denies the fact that I took natural fighting and does not let me swap it:



    Help?

    Even if I did Rogue Dilettante and Past Life: Arcane Initiate certainly aren't prereqs for anything.

    Yep. Also, all my feats are in that list (note the lack of toughness), except enchantment focus because I have to swap greater enchantment focus first as basic enchantment focus is a prerequisite.

    Oh yeah edit and I can also swap empower heal (at the top of the list, half cut off) and Quicken (half of it is at the bottom), where I have another cure crit on my hotbar that is quickened

    Thanks Zeeba.

    Any help to narrow down some thoughts:
    1. Unable to swap feats taken before a single toughness feat
    2. Something to do with epic levels
    3. Something to do with druid

    Going to use my free LR rather than shelve my current favourite character.

    Fred says... lvl 9. Which sounds about right.

    ...
    I took toughness feat at lvl 1 (or 2) when I took my monk lvl, I took natural fighting feat much later, I cant swap it.

    I remember reading something about a 'fix' to the situation where you would choose one dilly at charater creation then swap it for the one you want after eating a tome to meet preqs. Therefore you would need to meet preqs for swapped dilly at level 1. Although I just noticed that you are trying to swap a PL for a dilly. Can you do that? No idea about Maximise, unless it was bonus feat that can't be swapped out like a granted feat or something*.

    Just a guess,
