Summary0008384: angelic guardians missing weapons
DescriptionOn this 40.13 world and save :
http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=9837 [^]

I ran into a vault, i so far found the 2 types of angelic guardians , the ones without equipment and the ones with full armor and weapons made of divine materials.

After defeating many of the stronger angelic guardians type (the ones using items of divine material) i started to notice something.

I think my first success was against a "Messenger of Eb" that was a lasher.
He had a "long blistered metal" lash , weapon with divine material.
After his defeat i took it (along the divine clothing).

Then i ran into another "Messenger of Eb" that was an Axeman, i noticed in the ground under him there was a divine shiled ( "rectangular blistered metal shield" ) after my first strike and after defeating him i noticed he had no divine axe at all, but he had on him a divine shield, it's then very likely that the game wrongly assigned him 2 shields instead of his axe + a shield, and the AI simply dropped the useless additional shield on the ground

After defeating more of the stronger angelic guardians, it was clear that only the lasher type had a real weapon, every other strong angelic guardian had no weapon.

At the point of the save, you're in a room with a dead strong angelic guardian, there is a door to an unexplored zone, go to it and you'll face another strong one that is an axeman, and he will be affected by this odd bug, he has no axe and you can see the shield under him on the ground

deeper in the vault i found spearman and swordman versions of the stronger angelic guardians, they had divine spear and sword.
It seems it's affecting the axeman type only.
