Not sure why I'm creating this thread, as there are no bugs in Portralis, so it's kind of useless.
Still, we can always discuss some of the Unique Features of the game if you want. ;D

Well shoot ....I was looking forward to starting this thread...not that I have any bugs to report...just some possibly unintended features:
Ice weapons do not seem to actually change damage forms...I found a nice Ice Katana at the Black Market at a reasonable (read expensive) price and decided I must have it...but Ice/Cold forms have NO effect on physical immunes. Maybe Im misunderstanding the point of elemental weapons but it seems that what is immune to one thing shouldnt necessarily be immune to all.
Also It seems Iajutsu blocks returned attacks....while I appreciate not dying to physical returns I do think this might be unintended.
Also it seems to me that Poison durations last nearly forever now....Ive had to eat 20 or more meals before a poisoning wore off and that was a short one.
More to come as I re-explore the game.
Kensei seems rather unremarkable so far though I am still getting used to switching from no weapons to using 1 weapon no shield. (

Found a purple Halberd (2 handed polearm) with Dual Weilding...thought we were going to eliminate useless purples...(not that most are even worth picking up anyway...)

Ah...they were supposed to be only available in Ice-based dungeons, considering they are better than steel and they are three types in one. I guess I forgot to put that check for the black market. It doesn't matter I guess since I was probably going to put them in Rhyzendal's shops, but I wanted them to be something exclusive the Ice dungeons.
Even though the damages type is different, it's still treated as a melee attack, and bosses can be immune to it. After all, the ability does say:
"Immune To Weapons/Physical attacks"
That's why. Elemental damages on weapons is more for overcoming natural resistances of enemies. For example, a light-elemental sword will hurt a ghost. And it's also affected by elemental damages bonus from Elemental Lord abilities, as well as racial ability.
For example, if you're a Cold Lord, you could just use Piercing Spell on an ice-resistant monster, then kill it with the Ice weapon.
Patience, my friend! I can't fix everything at once, unfortunately. The fix will come, don't worry.

I downloaded the new build, and it crashes when I try to start a new game. Chall T. Dow I believe Sekira posted a fix: The first step is to restart your computer. If that doesn't work, you need to delete all copies of Portralis and re-extract it. You should be able to backup your save file in \lib\save\ and then restore it after you have re-extracted Portralis. EDIT: er I wrote that badly. When I say backup your save file in \lib\save\ I mean copy FROM there to a safe location before you delete, then copy it back TO \lib\save\ after you have re-extracted Portralis |

Now it's crashing when I die from poison damage. Other ways to die don't seem to be a problem. It's happened on three different characters, and I tried to restart/redownload and it still happens every time.

Poison damages now deal actual elemental damages, but I didn't think about the possibility of dying from it... |

Discovered a new mysterious crash...this one invokes the microsoft windows debug/report bug popup so I assume it did something illegal with ram.

Dunno if you're aware of this, the Heal Troops skill (gained from leadership) heals enemy monsters as well.
Also Fighters Taunt + high charisma + lots of summons = good combo right? XD
Too bad, the summons all get angry =(
Btw are the ice set of armor and weapons selling at the blackmarket a bug? Because I feel like getting a whole set for my future animated knight.

Yes the ice armor and weapons are unintentional features...though now that they are there...maybe they will stay??
Anyway this is really annoying that the game KEEPS crashing now. 3x in a very short time the game has crashed with the microsoft debug/report popup. No idea what is going on but it has happened each time immediately after defeating a monster.
