Druid lvl 34 spell Fury of Air

[integrable]

According to http://wiki.project1999.com/Fury_of_Air This nuke does 250 dmg + a stun. Was working properly before, but went to use it today and the tooltip now reads

"target was hit by non-melee for 170 points of damage
target has been struck by lightning"

I double checked the spell gem i memmed. forgot it. rememorized it. tried moving it in the spell book and memorizing again. when i go to cast it it doesnt cast Fury of Air. Uses the wrong animation from the druid line of wind/stun nukes and casts a lightning nuke instead.

The tooltip describes the level 34 aoe spell "Lightning Strike". So are you saying fury of air is now casting this spell?

[integrable]

It didnt appear to be causing AoE damage but that is the description that was given in the chat box when i casted the spell.

Somehow it's also interrupting a spell that's already landed.

That appears to be using a newer version of the spell, judging by the damage.

Lucy has info on the changes of the emot as well as it going down from 250 -> 170

[integrable]

That change was listed in 2005. Isnt that definitely a post velious change?

[evilkorn]

Yep, should be 250 for life of server.

[Telin]

Looks like damage should be increased to 250.

The animation should remain the same according to this comment from castersrealm:
3/27/2001:"Looks like the lvl 19 spell Careless Lightning when cast"

wtf is this? So it does 250 (accounting for my low druid level).... but it heals instead of doing damage?
