| Summary | 0020159: [Squig Herder] All By Meself blocks pets from being summoned instead of just turning off the bonus if you have a pet. | ||||
| Description | Reporter: Zomega-WAR <!-- Issues should be unique. Check if someone else reported the issue first, and please don't report duplicates. Only ONE issue in a report. Don't forget screens or a video. --> **Expected behavior and actual behavior:** The tooltip for All By Meself. At no point does it say that you cannot summon a pet, only that you get 2 bonuses while you do not have a pet.  However, when you try to summon a pet, once the cast is over the pet vanishes and this message appears in chat:  That message is actually from an old and removed tactic named Territorial Aggression which prevented you from summoning pets, but gave you a damage boost, armour boost and Squig Leap boost while in Squig Armor. The tactic existed alongside All By Meself but the two could not be used at the same time. Eventually, Territorial Aggression was removed. The armour buff was added to Squig Armor and the CD reduction was added back to All By Meself. However, it seems the pet-blocking was also added to All By Meself even though this is not stated in the tooltip and isn't how All By Meself used to work. This bug has been reported before and closed to say that All By Meself is supposed to block pets. If that is the case then the tooltip needs updating and the pet summoning skills should be disabled entitely rather than letting you complete the cast and then get nothing from it. Additionally, the error message in chat needs to be updated to remove references to the old Territorial Aggression tactic. To me though, it looks like the implementation for Territorial Aggression was incorrectly used for All By Meself when Territorial Aggression was removed, and the correct behavior is that you should be allowed to summon pets (but lose the bonus while you have a pet). All By Meself even gives the Battle Squig Territorial Aggression message even when you are not in your battle squig (AKA squig armor). Proof that the battle squig is the squig armor:  There is a related bug where if you try to summon a pet while you have All By Meself equipped then the casting fails AND you lose the +25% damage bonus. Only way to fix it is to unequip and reequip the tactic: https://github.com/WarEmu/WarBugs/issues/19529 **Steps to reproduce the problem:** 1) Equip "All By Meself" tactic 2) Try to summon squigs, in or out of Squig Armor. **Testing Screenshots/Videos/Evidences (always needed):** <!-- Drag and drop an image file here to include it directly in the bug report, no need to upload it to another site --> Above. <!-- Note that game critical and game breaking bugs may award a manticore/griffon (realm specific) at the leads discretion however, asking for one instantly disqualifies you from this reward. --> | ||||
