    Default LR Issue

    So, I decided to use my free +20 Heart to change a few things on my Bladeforged. Silly me, considering that I was only needing to change three class levels, I should have just gone ahead and purchased a +3 Heart, I know.

    Initially, I was a level 18 pure bladeforged Paladin. After reading Ellis Dee's "Evasion Paladin for new players", I decided that I might be interested trying that particular build, with some slight adjustments being made for not being a human. As a result, I did not take my first level of Paladin until my third level. After double checking to make sure that I have the proper amount of wisdom to cast the proper level Paladin Spells, and after taking 15 levels of Paladin (with levels 1 and 9 being Rogue and level 2 being a fighter), I noticed that I lost my ability to cast my Repair Spells granted by my Bladeforged Feat.

    Just thought I'd offer a bit of caution to people using +X Hearts, as well as attempt to find out exactly where I went wrong. My leading theory is that the situation's a result of waiting until level 3 to take my first Paladin level.

    You may have to 'drag' the action to your hotbar again to get it to work. I'm going literal here, cause you wrote cast, not isn't listed.

    normaly the repair spell apear in your bladeforged paladin spell tab once you hit the propper level
    do you still have the bladeforged feat?
    Not being bladeforged might have screwed things up.
    It would explain turbine's reluctance to let us pick the first level on our own on iconics

    That stinks. Thanks for the head's up.

    I agree with your theory that it is some kind of bug by not taking your first level as pally.
    My take on "the grind": https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthrea...=1#post6220972

    Ordinary humans have inhibitions that serve as a buffer against what we know is bad behavior.
    However, some people, by blaming others for their own bad behavior, develop a thought pattern that allows them to override self-control in order to achieve a selfish end.
    - My opinion on exploiters and cheaters blaming SSG for unfair punishment.

    I might be missing something, but when I take the enhancement I just pull the spell from the enhancement page under the character sheet. Now that being said I have never had a pure bladeforged paladin, so maybe these are two different things?

    I'm talking about the "Repair X Wounds" spells that the Bladeforged Feat gives the character to replace the "Cure X Wounds" spells. The Enhancement (Reconstruct) still works. I'm thinking that it has to do with not taking Paladin at the first level. I'm actually going to try to replicate this on Lam this weekend. If I can't, then I guess I'm stuck grabbing ANOTHER LR token. (I'm still slightly irate that I used my free +20 and this is what happened.)

    Sorry. Haven't really been cruising the forums much for the last few months aside from looking at patch notes and known issues.

    Mags.


    Update: Replicated on Lam. Guess it's "Working as intended." Well, I guess I'm going to have to try and grind up to 28 with my gimped character and snag a True Iconic Heart of Reincarnation. Yay.
