How can this still not been fixed???

I played on my witch last night. Cleared Deshar Act II all the way up to end boss (wormthingie) and tried it a few times.
No problems whatsoever.

Today, I woke up and decided to finally beat that boss but something was wrong, in the middle of the fight I did almost no damage at all.
And to my disbelief the old "sceptre doesn't give me the 100 spirit"-bug is back!!

I quit playing my witch a few days after release because it was bugged. Sometime is worked with Sceptre equipped in the right hand, sometimes in the left hand, but in the end it stopped working.

Yesterday (13th) I gave it a shot and hoped it would be patched. It worked for hours w/o any problems. But today (14th Dec) it just stopped giving me the 100 spirit so I can't raise my minions! Once again this character is stuck because it's hard enough without any upgrade currencies dropping. But without dps is pointless to even try.

This time it doesn't even matter if I equip my sceptre in either hand, no +100 spirit is obtained.
And last time I checked it's not even on the "Known Issues" list. Streamers that play on YT (and I assume on PC) doesn't have this problem so I guess that's why it haven't been fixed yet. GGG makes it completely clear that they don't value us on console the same.

But this must be fixed asap.
I can't even play my minion witch AT ALL until this is patched.
This should be up there with the most gamebreaking prioritized fixes that need to be done!

I uninstalled PoE2 Beta from my PS5 Pro. Turned it off.
Started it again and redownloaded the game. Logged in on my level 32 witch. Still not working.
Turned off game and restarted one again. Made a new witch. As soon as I got the Sceptre I equipped it and it worked. Played until level 3 and added some gems/support gems.
Spirit was down to 0 just like that. Not sure if that had anything to do with gems or binding new skills to my character. But whatever I do (unbind gems,unbind skills etc) my Spirit is STILL 0. Should be 100 as I have the sceptre equipped.

So witch is completely broken on PS5 // minion build
Same here! The witch is dead...

Yes it is. I think latest patch brought back the same thing they managed to solve the patch before that. I understand they have ALOT to do, but this must fixed asap. Now that character can't do anything before a patch/hotfix is released. Hopefully it comes really soon.
GGG, are you even looking into this?

I can't play my witch(es -made a new one, same problem on both). I tried reinstall the game, remove all gems from sockets and so on. On my Level 32 witch I have 30 spirit due to questreward. On my level 3 test-witch it's zero with scepters as main weapon. Earlier I could put the sceptre in offhand and make it work for a short while nut now it's only usable in mainhand.

It's just like my game doesn't detect the sceptre at all. I tried to buy a few other ones, noone worked. Please help so I can continue playing my witch.

Impossible to play minions without spirit!
Try to set ur minions on second weapon slot. I got on access the same bug and fixed it with the second weapon slot

Thanks!! I will try that out in a little while, I'm leveling a Monk atm, so when I cleared this part of the act I'll give it a shot.
So... it both worked and not. Moving the sceptre into second slot spawned the skellies, so far so good. My level 32 witch is at a boss so I charged in and as soon as they died they wouldn't re-spawn. I ran around for a minute before I paused the game and moved the wepaon back to slot "I" again.
The worked for a few minutes but suddenly my Spirit was 30 again. (-100).

I give up, hopefully the patch that will fix teleportation between checkpoints that are due for PS5 soon contains some kind of fix for this.
To stressful to play like thisand don't know if they will spawn or not.

But thanks again, it was worth a try. And it "almost" worked ;)
