The Character Advancement panel's Search tab was returning spell results but never any talents — even when a player typed a keyword that obviously matched a talent's tooltip (e.g. butchery, blade barrier).
Root cause: the baked
ParagonAdvancement_TalentData.luahad nodescfield on any talent. The search index walksdescand falls through when it is empty, so 0 talent hits, every query.Fix:
- Re-baked
ParagonAdvancement_TalentData.luafromTalent.dbc+Spell.dbcwith rank-1 name + description + tooltip flattened into a search-normalizeddescstring for every talent (892 entries, ~204 KB on disk vs. the previous bake's ~110 KB). - Hardened the bake script (
tools/_gen_paragon_advancement_talents_lua.py) so it falls back todbc/Spell.dbcwhen_dbc_work/Spell.dbcis missing, with a clearer warning if neither is found, so this regression cannot happen silently again.
After installing this build, typing a word in the Search bar matches both spells and talents and renders them in their respective result blocks (left = spells, right = talents).
