Giving Resurrected Corpses armor pieces, no longer gives them armor

Basic Info:

Platform: Steam
Issue Type: Gameplay
Game Mode: Online Private
Server Type: PvE
Map: Exiled Lands


Bug Description:

Resurrected corpses used to get armor from being given armor pieces. This no longer seems to work.


Bug Reproduction:

  1. Summon a Resurrected Corpse
  2. Give it an armor piece.
  3. Observe the piece not disappearing and give armor.

I believe that’s intentional.

This was a bug.

Where did you read about the intended behaviour and that it was a bug? I saw nothing in the patch message about it.

As far as I know, the earlier nerf to 1 armor piece per section was intended, but not removing it alltogether.

What would be the point of them having armor value 0, if there is no way to increase it? Or can you increase it in a different way?

The window you are talking about has no slot for armor visible. It was designed to not be there but how they implemented it was to simply mask it away with an overlay. However the system still allowed you to drop something in the place but you couldn’t get it back out. The wight horse had a similar design cheat on it where you could add a saddle even though it didn’t have a visible slot to drop it. They patched that so the original and clear intent was now fool proof. What we were technically doing prior to that was exploiting flaws in the game.

yeah okay, that makes sense. Thanks for the explanation.
