Infinite Major Healing From Sog

Something I've noticed since I've been handling all fights myself (for the xp) and telling all my followers to back off (so they live long enough to carry the loot).
I had given Sog a healing staff(20 charges, readily available from most magic shops) to carry and lo and behold, when I got seriously injured, lots of healy type special effects from Sog and I was better, all my scars gone too.
Sog used no charges from the item, nor did he use any stamina.
I've since equipped all of my packhorses with healing staffs (they only need to be in inventory, not actually held) and am quite happily soaring up the levels without a care in the world.
Happy healing everyone.

 

Nifty

Nice idea. They probably are using charges though. Its just that unlike other games where items get "used up", items in Arcanum recharge and have their own fatigue.

 

Definitely not using charges.

When I used the item it went from 20 to 19 charges and it has stayed at 19 charges ever since.

Sog has used it way more than 19 times

 

Is this a bug?

 

No idea, but if items have their own fatigue, this may explain it . . .
I used the [use item] function from the panel below the action screen 'cos that's the only way I know how to use charged items. Sog may be doing it another way (just like mage daggers etc let you cast your first few spells for no or reduced fatigue cost)

However, Sog has used the staff several times in one combat on occasion, so it may well be a bug.
