mwoody Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 I found lockpicks after using explore to locate the thieves guild in Mineta early in the game. However, they don't seem to have ever done anything. What's more, I recently purchased an expensive "compass" item that claims to increase my danger sense skill (among other things) - however again, it has no effect I can discern. What am I doing wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 mwoody450; You may not be doing anything wrong- unfortunately, some Items are misTyped and can't be 'equipped' properly. For all Items that have a Passive Effect, you need to Equip them (ie, drag them to an appropriate slot on your Paperdoll.) However, some Items do not allow this, when in fact they should. In the case of your Lockpicks and the Compass, see if you can place them on your Paperdoll. If not, please give me the name and I'll see if we can get this change into DLC 4. Thanks!

mwoody Posted December 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 Neither the "steel lockpicks" nor the "compass" item seem to have any corresponding paper doll slots. And for that matter, I've just found an item called "gigaplant oil" which claims to improve brewing by 1 but similarly has no visible means of use. Thanks for the quick response.

Legate of Mineta Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 mwoody450; Steel Lockpicks is definitely a misType, as is the Compass and the Gigaplant Oil. All three will be corrected in DLC 4 (unfortunately, this means a new game, since you cannot apply new DLC to an old save.) Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buhumphrey Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 Is this the case for Ruckman's Jeweler's Picks? I don't think I've ever been able to equip them, BUT I thought I received the benefits of owning them just by having them in my backpack. I could be wrong tho my memory is far from good.

Legate of Mineta Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 buhumphrey; Unfortunately, it is: although not after DLC 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buhumphrey Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 so about when will we be seeing DLC 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 buhumphrey; I think early next week, coincident with Patch 19. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Awesome news on the DLC. I plan on taking my laptop on vacation and playing a ton of Academagia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Thomas; Ah, when's your vacation begin so we can make sure to get it out in time? We're angling for Monday or Tuesday release, but we've slipped Patch 18 out to Saturday, so... Edit: Hmmm...we might have the Patch out in a few hours, actually. We'll see.

I was actually planning on starting a new game tonight (made a lot of mistakes in my current game that could've been avoided with a little better planning ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Gunslinger; Ah, sorry- I probably shouldn't have said anything. It looks like tomorrow after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunslingerV Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Gunslinger; Ah, sorry- I probably shouldn't have said anything. It looks like tomorrow after all. No problem. Will Patch 18 contain improvements that require a new game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
