Mystic Fortune on only one toon


Call Me Awesome

 

Posted

I jumped on my old PvP dom today and I noticed that I have the Mystic Fortune power on him, however, none of my other toons have this. Can anyone explain how this can be true? I bought the Secondary Mutation with Paragon Points a couple of weeks ago, but not Mystic Fortune. I only found this out when I needed to move Secondary Mutation from the powers list to my tray, and I noticed Mystic Fortune was sitting right above it.

Coincidentally, someone gave me a fortune right before I saw it.

When someone uses Mystic Fortune on you, whatever the result was will show up under your powers, but as an auto power. If you can't drag it into the tray, you don't have the ability to use it on others.

I tried to be clear in my first post, but I guess I failed. I'm not referring to the auto power that is granted to your toon after accepted a Mystic Fortune. I'm referring to the power that GRANTS the fortune to other people. That is the power that only one out of all my toons currently has.

Did you buy the Magic pack prior to the release of Freedom? If so, the mystic fortune power will be in the (I think) temp power listing. Find it by clicking on the words at top of your power tray then scrolling down and looking at the right side of the columns. You can drag it to your power trays. This will need to be done for each toon on the account.

I take it you didn't read my question at all.

As for why you're not seeing the power on your old pvp alt, that I'm not sure. I do know that if someone gives you the buff, you don't get the power to return the buff.

Since you saw that you have the power on one of your other alts has me confused. From what I understand, you have not ever bought the magic booster pack or the fortune power from the new Paragon Market, right?


I have gone to find myself. If I get back before I return, Keep me here!

Ok, to be clear, are you able to drag this Mystic Fortune to your power tray and use it on other players?

On the other characters that don't have it, try targeting another player and type /PowExecName Mystic Fortune in the chat bar to see if it goes off.

Maybe also check under email to see if Mystic Fortune can be claimed on the other characters. It's a long shot, as I don't think MF gets added to a character that way.

Finally, try typing /MyPurchases into the chat bar. Here's a post from SnowGlobe that might help with the big pile of text it gives

Warning: it will spam your system message channel.

The easiest way to see it outside of the game is to:
  • enable chat logging
  • use the /mypurchases command
  • close the game
  • Find the chat log. It should be in the \City of Heroes\logs\game logs\ directory.
  • change the log file extension to .htm
  • open the log file in a browser
  • The items that can be claimed multiple times should have a "purchased" and "used" column. I'll assume "used" is "claimed".

Please note that this is not a great way to encourage people to try helping you.

If it is in the power listing for one character but not others, that would be a bug, and something you should submit a petition regarding.

Yes. I am talking about the power used to grant other people a fortune.

On my other characters, nothing happens. The power isn't displayed in the powers list.

It is not in any e-mails and the /MyPurchases command doesn't list Mystic Fortune anywhere in there. It does, however, list Secondary Mutation and it says that I have not claimed it, which is untrue. So I'm going to ignore that.

To be more clear, this isn't a problem. I am just curious as to if this is a bug of some kind. IT wouldn't be right if random people received something for free that other people had paid for.

It's quite annoying/rude for someone to jump in a thread and write in reply to a question they did not fully read if at all. I'd imagine it's annoying/rude reading my response also. Equal ground.

From what I am understanding from reading this, correct me if I'm wrong. One of your alts has the mystic power, yet you have never purchased the magic booster pack or the mystic power from the market. Also the magic pack is not the same as the mutation pack; they were separate packs.

So you have a bug where one of your alts has a power it shouldn't have?

Then you got a bonus, congratulations. Unless there's something wrong with that particular character I'd suggest leaving well enough alone and enjoy your free power.
