Why are my tentacles randomly exploding?

Post » Mon Feb 04, 2013 9:13 am

Im not in combat or anything. Im just walkign around and every once in a while i hear a noise and then the tentacle explosion happens.

PS, its pretty neat having 105% magica absorb with this getup o_O I suspect ill be bored of it soon though.


question number two: I cant summon karstag for some reason, im out doors and i think i may have only used it once if at all. Does it count down? Even if i did use it once i reverted back.
EDIT: nvmd apparently the absorption thing effects summoning karstag, even though its called a power -_-

Isn't the tentacle explosion (giggity) supposed to be random?

No, it's supposed to be when you're taking damage. Of any kind. I explode when I'm facing spellcasters.

Damn things didn't work for me. Does it do any significant damage?

To innuendo or not to innuendo? That is the question.

There is currently a bug in the game in which you can't summon if ou have 100% spell absorption. You absorb your own summon spell. If you have less than 100%, it may or may not work. It's random and the chances of your summon working are based on how low your spell absorption is.

Have you tried talking to your lord Hermaeus Mora about it? I've heard he has problems with premature..."exploding" as well.

I'm gonna be honest, I came here with zero intention of answering the OP's question. I just wanted to make tentacle jokes. But I have two guesses.

1. You have some sort of negative effect that the robes register as "damaging".

2. Spell absorption for the Karstaag summon.

That's why you can't summon ANYTHING. Stupid glitches Bethesda can't seem to fix. Modders have no issue patching it though...
