The Bug:

Some players experience a bug when a number of their ancient magic bars are emptied every time they start a new session of the game, even if all the bars were full at the end of their previous session:

* Possibly it could happen when the player gets all 5 ancient magic bars too early in the game by going to all ancient magic hotspots.

The Workaround:

When you launch the game, it doesn't matter whether you just continue from the last save by clicking on your character on the top left, or choose to load any save from the list by pressing 'F', you will always have some ancient magic bars empty at the start of the new session. And the type of the save you start your session with (auto or manual) doesn't play any role at all.

But if after that you go to settings main screen and load ANY save from the list OTHER than the one you started with (again, it doesn't matter if this is auto or manual save), all your ancient magic bars will be full again.

So if you wish not to lose any progress from your last session and keep all ancient magic bars full, the solution is very simple:

1. After you launch the game and get to the main menu, NEVER just continue the game by clicking on your character on the top left, you should press 'F' (or whatever you have on your controller) to load the game from your saves list:

2. Then load ANY save EXCEPT the last one:

3. Finally, after you appear in the game with empty ancient magic bars, you can load your last save from your previous session:

Now you are exactly where you were when your previous session ended and you have all your ancient magic bars full:

I hope it helps someone.
