While playing a new character, Theron, I have found a bug that affects half-celestials. After leveling you lose some bonuses. Xilo either knew about this, or had good insight, but mentioned that it's probably misreading your subrace as 'celestial' not 'half-celestial'. This makes perfect sense because you don't loose all your bonuses, lightning immunity is changed to resist, for example. Well that's the difference between a half-celestial and celestial. This may occur at other times, but it happens every time you level.
The only ways to get your original bonuses back is to die and get rez'd. Either kill yourself and have someone ressurect you, or bite the bullet and hit respawn when you die. Logging out and coming back in doesn't help. Waiting until the server resets probably would fix it, but I never tested that aspect.
I'm pretty sure this only affects half-celestials since no other race shares a common string like 'celestial' that is in both of those sub-races.
Anyways, probably nothing to do about it, so this is more of an FYI for others.
But, *IF* it's ever looked at, you could possibly change the celestial race's name, but that would affect current celestial characters. They would have to have their sub-races edited to whatever new name was selected. Or you could change the script to look for half-celestials before celestials. That may also work, and wouldn't require much change at all.
