Permanent Boost Items Lost

When I arriving in Treviso, one of the first stops is the Grande Markets. One of the vendors sells a pair of items, one that gives a permanent 1% boost to resistances, and one that grants permanent 1% boost to defense. I bought them both, and before leaving the market, saved the game manually before a new check point, then quit out.

I reloaded later, and found myself back at a checkpoint as if I had just arrived in Treviso--had to make the same short run to the markets. The vendor did NOT have the items anymore. I compared save files, and the gold I spent was missing, but the boosts to stats were ALSO missing. In the earlier save file I was able to purchase the items and see the stat changes applied. Not breaking, but clearly something is off that makes me wary of whether saves will properly retain bonuses.

 

  • Actually, I played further, and checked another save--this time a checkpoint "temporary chapter save". The boosts disappeared there too. Also the boost for a permanent HP increase is also gone. I don't see the items in my inventory--not sure if they are intended to show or not.

    The game robbed you of your in game gold, dang. I’ve never came across this or seen any others. But in all honesty they don’t help at all, I would just stick to the armor and weapon stats cause later in game you’ll be able to upgrade and enchant them however you want.
