artifact bugs update
In the new patch 3.0, some of the artifact bugs have been fixed. Mostly +7 -> +8 attack skill fixes. To encourage more fixes, I would like to post what I think is still there. Some artifacts of the original list from Wub are not really buggy, so I left them out too, and now the list looks so easy to tackle (hopefully).
I noticed that saved games that had been started in versions before v3.0, you find buggy as well as fixed artifacts of the same sort. So you find axes with +7, and axes with +8 attack skill bonus, in old save games.
I haven't tested all, but I have tested: flaming sword, greatsword, angel's blade, arrow of slayer, valder's crossbow, david's sling. Maybe someone else can verify that they haven't fixed the rest yet. I first tested David's sling with halflings... that's not good of course, halflings have 100% extra ranged damage against lev4 already. The sling doesn't change anything for them.
Artifact.........................Description.........………….................................. Actual effect
Greatsword....................Hero's melee attack +13..................….…...............Hero's melee attack +12

Angel's blade .................Hero's melee attack +3, +50% dmg vs undead..... Hero's melee attack +3 (that’s all)
Death shield: no life ward at all.
Shield of Chaos, Life shield, Shield of Order, Unnatural shield, Dragon scale shield:
The blessing is gone when your creature moves. It comes back when it moves again.
Fizbin of misfortune: the curse is gone when the enemy moves.
Cloak of distraction: no effect.
(edit: I added the cloak of distraction)
Edit:
The dragon scale shield also has a % bug: it gives 25% instead of 30%. It was on the original list, but I left it out when I summarized it (accidentally).
I have also tested the badge of courage today, because I thought it was buggy, but it is not:
* it works on your creatures only.
* it works against nightmare terror, aura of fear artifact/spell, and bonedragon/witchking/hidmask fear.
* it doesn't protect against "cowardice". But cowardice and fear are not the same thing, actually.
