As can be seen I had the detect evil spell active but didn't see any black aura on the lawful evil target before or after casting know alignment.

for more detail, I was using an LG cleric of tyr, Aasimar. lvl 48 and was fighting the hobgoblins in undermountain. My memory may be faulty on this but I don't think I've ever seen a lawful evil NPC just using the level 1 detect spells. I've only ever seen chaotic and evil auras together.
I trained up double-edged bananas because the uber-plantain of doom I scored from the beehive quest was the best weapon in the game. Now it's being treated like a bug and they have gimped its damage! That's not fair! My character is ruined!
