just to be clear, when i say switch protectors, i mean the most recent character to use protect. Sometimes the character that used protect most recent would jump in to take/block the hit, but other times the previous protector would still jump in and block/die.
one more thing, I play the game with 2 protectors, when the first one begins to lose all of its armor, i normally switch protectors, but sometimes the switch doesn't work, and the previous protector takes the hit and ends up dying.
I'm not sure, but i think the glitch i was talking about had to do with the character only have 1 dex, I switched out the helm that had -2 dex for one that added dex, and the problem seemed to have been solved.
the block and protect would work on the first turn but after that if you try to block and still have 4 turns of protect left, it just does nothing, I'd have to shield bash to be able to block while in protect mode.
I'm not sure if the not being able to block and protect at the same time comes from having too high of a defense or too low of a dexterity, but the stats on the character that receives the glitch is
charisma: 84
str:33
dex:1
def:251
speed:27
vit:17
dmg:69-112
armor:1680
hp:937
mp:194
another glitch is. sometimes protect wouldn't work properly, the user of the skill would jump in front of of the protectee without being in the blocking position and take a direct hit with no chance of blocking at all.
When I pick up items, they aren't received in the storage area. In fact if I already have that type of item equipped then i just don't get the new item at all. When i started with a short sword and picked up a dagger. It was no where to be found in the inventory.
You character sells items it doesn't need automatically. You got some gold out of it :)
