ICARUS Weight Reduction Aura Stays Permanent Fix
Quick Answer
If an ICARUS Weight Reduction aura effect appears to stay permanent after the aura source is no longer active, confirm that the client and host run Week 251 build 3.0.29.157838 or later. RocketWerkz says the Weight Reduction Granted Effect was saving to the database and explains that aura-granted modifiers should not save because otherwise their effects can become permanent. Week 251 stops that effect from being saved. On the corrected build, record the current weight-related values, identify the visible aura source if the game shows one, leave its normal range or remove its normal condition once, and compare the state without stacking unrelated bonuses. The release does not name the aura, publish its percentage, list every source, explain whether an already stored modifier is automatically cleared, or authorize save editing. Treat the database persistence defect, aura boundary, and Week 251 correction as verified. Keep exact numbers, cleanup of old saves, relog sequences, talent resets, item removal, console commands, and unrelated weight bonuses separate unless current reliable evidence supports them.

Before you set out
Prerequisites#
- Use Week 251 build 3.0.29.157838 or later on both the player client and the session host.
- Record current carried weight, capacity, visible modifiers, nearby aura sources, and relevant equipment before changing state.
- Change only the normal aura condition once so unrelated talents, equipment, food, encumbrance, or inventory changes do not confound the observation.
- Keep the aura name, exact percentage, source list, database cleanup timing, and recovery for an older saved modifier Unknown unless separately verified.
Why Weight Reduction could appear permanent#
Week 251 identifies persistence, not arithmetic, as the defect. The Weight Reduction Granted Effect was saving to the database. The developer states a broader rule: modifiers granted through auras should not save, because saving them can make their effects permanent. That supports a precise causal chain. An aura supplies a temporary granted effect while its source or condition applies; the faulty path persisted that granted effect beyond its intended live context; the update prevents this Weight Reduction effect from being stored. The note does not name the creature, player, deployable, talent, item, or other system that supplied the aura. It also does not publish the normal weight-reduction percentage or describe whether the incorrect entry changes carried weight, capacity, encumbrance threshold, item weight, or a displayed modifier row. Those distinctions matter. A player can appear lighter because of equipment, food, talents, inventory changes, another aura, or display timing, none of which is proven to be this database defect. On Week 251 or later, establish a before state, change only the normal aura condition, and compare the visible values once. Do not repeatedly relog, strip unrelated equipment, reset talents, transfer inventory, or edit save data simply to force a difference. A remaining report should include builds, host type, visible source, relevant values and modifier labels before and after leaving the condition, and whether the character or save was created before the patch.
Route 02
Check an ICARUS Weight Reduction aura that stays permanent#
Test the documented Week 251 persistence boundary while keeping every unnamed aura, percentage and old-save cleanup rule Unknown.
Check the client build#
Confirm Week 251 build 3.0.29.157838 or later. An older client is below the documented no-save correction.
Check the host build#
Match the host or dedicated server to the corrected build. Persistent character or world state cannot be judged from a current joining client alone.
Record visible weight values#
Capture carried weight, capacity, encumbrance state, and any named modifier the game actually shows. Do not infer hidden percentages.
Identify the visible aura source#
Use the current UI or nearby source only if it is shown. The release does not name which aura granted the faulty effect.
Record equipment and other bonuses#
Note relevant armor, modules, tools, food, talents, companions, and other visible effects so a separate modifier is not mistaken for persistence.
Change one normal aura condition#
Leave the ordinary range or remove the ordinary live condition once. Do not destroy objects or reset progression to manufacture a state change.
Wait for the normal UI update#
Observe the next normal state refresh without entering a relog loop. The changelog supplies no special wait time or restart sequence.
Compare the same fields#
Check the same values and labels recorded before the transition. Keep raw observation separate from a guessed internal modifier.
Note the save boundary#
Record whether the affected character or world stored state before Week 251. The source does not promise automatic removal of every old database entry.
Preserve a remaining failure#
Keep builds, host type, source shown, before-and-after values, other active bonuses, transition performed, and save age before attempting broader changes.

- Developer rule — aura-granted modifiers should not save.
- Documented risk — saved aura effects can become permanent.
- Fix boundary — Week 251 build 3.0.29.157838.
- Unknown — granting aura, source list, percentage, display field, and exact expiration timing.
- Unknown — old database cleanup, relog, talent reset, item removal, console, or save-edit recovery.
- Search volume, keyword difficulty, and external SEO score remain Unknown.
Fault ledger
If Weight Reduction still appears stuck#
- The host is older than Week 251
- Update and restart the host before testing the persistence correction. Current client UI alone cannot prove the saved-effect path is fixed.
- Another weight bonus is active
- Record and isolate equipment, talents, food, companion or other aura effects. The release does not say every weight modifier used the faulty record.
- The aura source is unidentified
- Keep the source Unknown rather than assigning one from memory. Capture only the live UI and nearby conditions the game shows.
- The save predates Week 251
- Preserve that boundary. Preventing new saves is not the same as documented cleanup of an already stored granted effect.
- A workaround requires save editing
- Do not present it as official or safe. The cited update describes a code correction and gives no manual database procedure.
Field questions
Weight Reduction aura questions#
- What did Week 251 fix?
- It stops the Weight Reduction Granted Effect from saving to the database, where an aura modifier could otherwise become permanent.
- Which aura caused the problem?
- The saved official release does not name the granting aura or source, so this guide keeps it Unknown.
- What percentage should disappear?
- No exact percentage or affected display field is published in the cited changelog.
- Will updating remove an effect already stored?
- The release prevents the effect from saving but does not explicitly guarantee cleanup of every pre-patch database entry.
- Should I edit the save or reset talents?
- Neither recovery is documented by Week 251. Preserve the observed state and avoid destructive changes.
