Moving in with powerful grace, a Dragon Priest intercessor throws a black throwing axe set with a trilliant cut night diamond at a Dragon Priest intercessor. A Dragon Priest intercessor attempts to evade, only partially avoiding the impact. The axe lands a good strike (3/22) to her back!
The throwing axe falls to the ground!
As if effort and skill were a bad thing, a Dragon Priest intercessor throws a black throwing axe set with a trilliant cut night diamond at a Dragon Priest intercessor. A Dragon Priest intercessor dodges. The axe lands a light hit (1/22) to her back sending her flying head over heels!

I thought people would like this one, as its probably the most hilarious bug I've seen in a while.

Oh well, guess I'm the only one that thinks its funny.

Still an issue BTW, just was checking up on everything else I could think of and thought I'd mention it... not trying to rush or pressure anyone, really.

:D

I fixed the being able to unhide/throw at invisible targets a while back. Can you please check it again for me?

Other than the bold-ing this is a 100% unedited log from test @ 1:00pm CST on 01/12/2014 (today, right now).

> khri start sil

Turning inwards, you find the still silent spot within you. Focusing on that point, you allow the silence to spread gently through your body and then out into the world, until you fade away from the world itself.

The Dragon Priest intercessor advances from nearby and is closing steadily.

With fluid and stealthy movements you draw a black throwing axe set with a trilliant cut night diamond from the chest harness concealed beneath your bone hauberk.
> throw

A Dragon Priest intercessor stops advancing.

Moving with powerful grace, a Dragon Priest intercessor throws a black throwing axe set with a trilliant cut night diamond at a Dragon Priest intercessor. A Dragon Priest intercessor barely fails to block with metal bracer. The axe lands a hard hit (5/22) to her left leg!
That would have stuck if there was anything left to stick to!

Looking as if this were a bad idea, a Dragon Priest intercessor throws a black throwing axe set with a trilliant cut night diamond at a Dragon Priest intercessor. A Dragon Priest intercessor dodges. The axe lands a light hit (1/22) to her left leg sending her flying head over heels!

The bug doesn't come from me being invisible, it just gives me a bigger window to show you the bug, but I've done this with several critters that spawn/advance in stealth. They end up stealing my weapon, and throwing it at themselves twice.

This is separate from the bug you mentioned. Please see the bold-ed sections.

That's so funny, I'm half hoping it's a feature.

I think it just got pissed off at its pal for letting you get away.

Geesh, no clue where THAT bug is coming from. Might be that critter's AI. Has anyone seen other critters do this?

I really think its anything that hides.

Just incase I wasn't clear I wanna point out again that I was wrong in my original post about me being invisible being a part of this bug.

It just happens anytime I throw a weapon at a critter in hiding (that I obviously have the spot effect on)... I have yet to find one that it doesn't happen with.

Oh yeah, and Moths. Knew there was another one I was forgetting about.
