The first use of our VFX Widget says something about removing visuals, intended to clear whatever visuals the widget gives. The problem is that this removes the visuals Iouns give.
Which also remove the Ioun's effects.
I can provide screenshots if necessary, but anyone else with a VFX widget and an Ioun see if you can test this too.

*peeks out from under his rock*
We have a widget that clears spell VFX?
Is it on a menu, or is it requestable?
I despise the NWN spell eye candy.

This happens when reverting from a polymorph that used a delayed skin changer too.

IIRC, Iouns now have an infinite duration and stay active as long as you don't trade away the physical item. If we can't figure out what is making some scripts strip visuals, another workaround would be to just give Ioun's infinite x day uses so you can reapply it if a widget strips them. Iouns don't stack with versions of themselves or with other Iouns and last forever anyway, so it's more of a quality of life change.

Yeah I'd like to see this. _________________ ANT ALARM Count Kaldrjarn Pitt | Archmage Kilmar | Sarguk Morderer ANT ALARM MisterLich wrote: First of all, my brain is one of the best here.

I can confirm this bug when using my Black Mask Visualizer, it will clear my Ioun stone (and subsequent regeneration effect) in addition to the mask.
Looks like it clears all visual properties, not just the one the Visualizer applies.

This is still an issue and is still annoying as hell.
For the sake of repeating it, making Iouns infinite use items would be a decent workaround until the script could be fixed.

Can I get a Dev or DM opinion on the making Iouns unlimited use, in lieu of or until the VFX widget gets fixed?

I will look into the VFX widget when I have time. Probably a simple fix.

Any news on this?
Further thoughts on the uses thing. In addition to working around this bug until it gets fixed, giving iouns unlimited uses also lets people switch between loadouts more easily. If you have more than one ioun and want to switch back to a previous one, you're kind of boned until you rest again. I'm not sure if that counts as a buff, but it seems like an ease-of-use deal. The iouns already function in a "meta-slot" where you can only have one active, not sure what the harm would be in letting you switch out more than once per day like any other piece of equipment.
Going from daily use to unlimited takes the level requirement from 10 to 17, but as epic(loot) items, I don't see that being a big issue.

Added a check to i_ds_visualizer to verify that the effect being removed wasnt created by an ioun stone. This will go live in 5.16e

The 5.16e fix seems to be working as intended. Thanks for figuring it out.
