No Gear After Successful Defense

[njames89]

Had a recent strategus battle and the gear after the battle has been glitched somehow.

The gear in the castle that was ours was left untouched as if we didn't use any of it. No gear of the enemies was looted. Something is not working here.

Hope we can get a fix!

Trying to find the right thread, but i think i've heard of this before.

It came up in discussions about the gear 'dupe' if you win a battle vs a fief.

It wasnt clear if this happened in every successful siege defense or just some, but it's looking like that it's all siege defenses (and we havent noticed yet cos most sieges have been vs AI).

Also heard some rumours that the gear you used up returns to it's original state, whilst you fail to loot anything from the attacker. Is this something you've observed?

This is exactly correct.

I unfortunately was not quite sober enough to make an adequate judgement on that matter when I finally returned to tulbuk village to look at the gear. HOWEVER, I did make ~300k silver off selling the broken gear there and a bit of leftover castle gear I decided I didn't need anymore. At the time that seemed like a lot of money to make for just one battle at a village, and one that wasn't even quite 1000v1000 as I remember. Could speak to this or it could not, but there is what I know.

Edit: Also, I was in a Euro battle the other day, Normandie Vs Northern Alliance I think, and I heard some of the people in TS talking about something like what we are talking about now. I believe they said that when you defend a fief and win the battle all the gear you originally had in the fief returns after the battle to it's original state, as well as getting broken gear following the known looting processes. Frankly however I didn't understand to clearly what they were saying, and it was also quite early in the morning. Just remembered about it now though, in light of this info.

The bold bit seems to refer to this.

But i cant find the thread where someone else mentions no loot for defense. Pretty sure it was an EU guy.

If you have gear and you successfully defend a fief be it a village or a castle you loot nothing from the attackers however you keep all of your gear as it was before the battle.

Yep, another game breakingly bad bug in this round of Strategus.

And another reason why I have donned a much more suitable character than THE GOBBLIN KING for a STRAT so shitty and autistic.

My inventory has been the same each time after 3 battles.  What really confuses me is why this is broken now, when it worked perfectly fine before.  Were they trying to change the looting mechanics?

Anyway, this is obviously tied to the other side of this, which is duping on successful attacks.

Well this is shitty

Is this confirmed fixed?

Was told so a few week back but since then there was no general acknowledgement that it was indeed fixed, EU and NA, for both attack/defense and in all cases.
Since the bug originated from cRPG it is impossible for me to have 100% certainty it is fixed.
