So I have the alternation perk Atronach (30%) and the standing stone Atronach (50%) for near immunity to magic. It's all good except:

1. Shadow warrior perk fails activation.
2. Conjuration spells fail on cast.

So anyone else having other skills affected by these bugs?

I have the exact same thing. I found that the Atronach bug prevented me from changing into a Wereman. My character was bit by one but nothing happened and I stayed a man. I can only assume it was down to this bug and it's something Bth need to fix pronto! :cryvaultboy:

Nah, seems to be right...you wanted to turn into a wereman and ta-da ended up as a man.

Sorry to be unhelpful but look on the bright side. With that perk and the standing stone a breton would be invunerable. Kinda useless and irrelvent but it's nice to know.

I know it sounds funny but it totally ruins the point of becoming a Wereman. Half man half machine. The Dwermers started the disease and now this bug has cured it. Not what Beth intended I doubt.

"Were" means man. "Werewolf" means man-wolf. "Wereman" means man-man.

I've noticed it, too. It's kind of upsetting because this same issue existed in Oblivion where spell absorption could negate your own telekinesis. I would have thought that Bethesda would have had that issue ironed out from the last game, but it's back and even more annoying now.


He's just trolling at this point about the wereman thing. Ignore him and he'll give it up eventually.

Actually it is just because a flag was not set for those spells to ignore magic absorption. A modder with the construction set can fix it within an hour.
