Why is my Ghoul Character's Glow Meter Acting Like an AP Meter?

-

I’m having a strange issue with my Ghoul character’s glow meter. It seems to be depleting like an Action Point (AP) meter, even though I’m not taking any damage or hitting targets during combat. The only thing consuming my AP in the attached video is movement, as I’ve removed all my armor and I’m overloaded. I’ve also double-checked to see if my Armor Perks are affecting the glow meter. You can check out the bizarre behavior in this video: [https://youtu.be/gpd70fMt5lo?si=Td_Bmx18BsNNYUsA](https://youtu.be/gpd70fMt5lo?si=Td_Bmx18BsNNYUsA). However, I found out later that the Blood Sacrifice perk was causing this issue, and unequipping it fixed the problem.

That’s odd! I used Blood Sacrifice before and removed it too, but I noticed that my AP only decreased for a short while after attacking—like a temporary thing. Maybe it acts differently for different characters?

Yep, I had the same issue and it turned out to be the Blood Sacrifice perk for me too. Once I unequipped it, everything went back to normal. Glad to hear you figured it out!

Just to confirm, have you checked if Blood Sacrifice is the culprit? It’s notorious for having effects that can mess with your glow meter without you realizing it.

It might be worth checking your Perk cards. Some perks can consume glow when you attack, which could explain why it feels like your glow meter is dropping quicker than normal. Try using a weapon that has a higher AP cost and see if the issue persists.
