All proficiencies back to 5

Postby Lansett » Tue Feb 09, 2016 2:02 pm

Hi.

All my proficiencies are back to 5 and I'm pretty sure there were no KO loops involved.

In the process of escaping from a raided base of mine with my alt, braziers KOed me 3 times (one time on a vClaim and two times on pClaim+vClaim).
I was repoping at my leanto on the alien claim after a delay with the minimal amount of black bile (maybe 5 idk).
Eventually I managed to free my alt it's ok now, but then I checked his proficiencies and noticed the big loss :(
I'm not sure if a bug occured at some point because as I said I'm pretty sure there was no KO loop or such.
This alt is not sick, has no madness, no bat on the neck or anything nasty ; just black bile KO and repop.

Sounds like a KO loop to me.

You didn't by chance take a break in the midst of this? Maybe start trying to escape on Monday night, and finish escaping Tuesday evening? Closing your client isn't the same as selecting "log out" from the in-game menu.

Oh sure, but it would just have added insanity I think (apparently it didnt much because I ended with 0 madness).

What I'm wondering is if a KO-loop related to black bile and braziers are still possible these days or not. What I could witness the time I was actually playing is that I repoped at my leanto on my legs with a minimum (but still positive) black humour. Braziers would start to fire again only when I activated crime and moved.

Maybe it still did, maybe an admin can check, maybe not. Not the end of the world but still sad.

Unless I'm miscalculating grossly I should have KOed about 635 times [EDIT : 317 actually]

Your character was probably still in his 'free madness' window.

Not even, I created it August 2015.
Somehow I lost all my prof and didn't take a single madness level.

It doesn't matter on when your character was created. You get 48 PLAY hours. So if you had not logged 48 hours of playtime on that character that would be why.

JC, that character does not look like a 48 hour old character, unless it was boosted, which I doubt.

Good point. Has anybody else experienced this? Is there anything to lead us to believe that a KO loop prevents madness gain?
