I think I might have ran into an issue that came down to this mod. It's a long story on how I deduced this:

I was in an endless harvest and was virtue scumming (exhilirating gameplay) One hero got focused and another got powerful. Bear in mind there was no practitioner in this party. At first, I didn't see an issue, but then when the virtued heroes started barking their effects I noticed something.

The focused hero was not applying any buff.

The powerful hero was applying a PROT buff instead of a DMG one.

As I've been playing (just in the save), I've experienced the other virtues and they were having their intended affects when they barked.


After some digging and searching for all mods that dealt with the "traits" file, I had only two results: your wanderer and practitioner mods. With the base game "trait_library" I noticed the wanderer had what seemed to be an identical set of code in regards to virtues (at least when I was looking under focused and powerful). However, your practitioner mod seems to have unique effects for those two virtues. I believe they are carrying over to the other heroes when I imagine they were meant to be exclusively for the practitioner.

I haven't had the practitoner virtued with those two virtues yet, but I'm guessing the focused one does something unique, like discovering one of his unique artifacts and the powerful one, as one of my heroes showed, seems like something the practitoner would do.

I have since changed the lines back to the vanilla versions and will see if that allows for those barks to work again. Unfortunately, I don't know a way of testing to see if this has fixed the problem. I guess if I run into the virtues' barks again, I'll find out if this solution worked or not.

@tacticalweapon1 Thank you for mentioning this, I'll keep it in mind. I don't think there's any need to change stuff just yet since atm this is an isolated incident, but if more people pop up having the same issue, or if you find more evidence, I can organize a change for Practitioner. Wanderer is outside of my jurisdiction though as it was made by other modders.

I have been playing for some time with the new changes and I can say both the focused and powerful effects for all heroes have returned to normal. That being said, I have started running into crashes involving any sort of act out (albeit extremely randomly). Whether or not this was from my edits, a modded game, or a corrupted one from the action of editing files mid-game I am not sure.

Edit: Now that I think about it: a fix for this if it turns out to be an issue is to add these focused/powerful lines as new ones with a "valid_hero_class_ids" section for the practitioner. Bear in mind, I have no modding experience. I just like screwing with game files.

I can't seem to change his colour in the options. Normally I click the button to cycle through options, but it only ever gives me the default orange option. I see the variations in the files, but I can't seem to get them to apply in game. (I didn't change anything in the files, I just went looking to see if he had additional palettes.)

@metalkatt There aren't any colour variations. I had some planned (the ones you see in the files), but they fell through.

Sometimes normal Practitioner texture replaced by white box

Hello there!
I've been playing the Practitioner a bit, and I really like his design. A well thought and versatile character, you have my kudos.
Unfortunately, Invoke Enenra doesn't seem to be powering up with the Artifacts of Fervor in the inventory. Tried in a fresh save too, including the vanilla version, but the problem persisted.
Would love to know if anyone else had the same issue, really loving all the work so far!
