Weaponless mercenary runs on spot endlessly.

Mercenary bugs out and runs on spot endlessly. It will leash to me, and can be Order: To Me'd.

To replicate, take Toxicologist weapon off, enter map, they attempt to use a skill (unsure which) and then hence forth run in place jank-warping around.

My merc is weaponless to avoid them taking on kill effects. Preferably they would just not attempt to attack and would run along side me.

Merc in motion (sort of lol)


Merc in questions inventory, I can give more info if needed.

It’s a shame that it’s a Toxicologist.

I’ve had some success just throwing a Southbound on a Merc and calling it a day.

It likely isn't specific to toxicologist, this is just where I've experienced it.

Southbound stops hits from killing, the merc does caustic arrow DOT dmg which seems to have a negative interaction with allowing profane bloom to work as well which is the reason for taking my mercs weapon off in the first place.

Sorry if I was unclear; I meant it’s a shame you wish to use a Toxicologist, as their focus on DoT damage renders the workaround of giving them Southbound ineffectual. I didn’t mean to imply I thought the issue you reported was exclusive to Toxicologists.

All good, appreciate the response.

Similarly I can't stick a wreath of Precia on them to turn off chaos damage either cause its pure INT gear despite having no attribute requirement. :*(
