Boil Blood prevents Regrowth?

[fahlen]

Never experienced this until today, but I have been gone a while and quite a few changes have been made. A mob landed Spell: Boil Blood on me, and while it was active, Spell: Regrowth would not land. It would give a successful message "You begin to regenerate". But in fact does nothing. Not sure if a bug, but thought I'd bring it to your attention incase.

There's lots of posts about this same topic already:

not a bug, Welcome to LDC. :P

[fahlen]

Can anyone confirm this is intended? "Shit happens sometimes maybe." Not exactly the process thats normally done for things in question here. Is this for Boil Blood only? Why does it not affect the buff if it's already on if it's "not supposed to"? (Ex. Getting rooted and losing sow - good times) Should we be getting a successful cast message when in fact it does not land? It's a 300 mana 6 second cast spell. That can sometimes be the difference between life and death. Some people are really on their game with providing concrete answers on stuff like this.

If the target of your regen spell has boil blood on them you can not refresh the regen or apply it to them.
Lava Duct Crawlers (LDC) apply boil blood and this is how I learned about this.

This applies to regeneration, chroloplast and regrowth or any of the group based ones.

Edit: going to place this link here. as Boil Blood is not officially confirmed to be accurate on p99 in terms of Resistance Check

The spell is not Boil Blood; it's BoilING Blood. Lucy also has it as fire. However, there are many classic posts suggesting that it's MR based. Not seeing any evidence of that, though.

But relevant to this thread:

"These lil spiders are pretty dangerous. Hittin between 84 to 104 in the higher hits thez cast a spell calles 'Boiling Blood' on u. The ways to get it off:

1.) Pumice stone - just revoes all u have of buffs .. newbee method.
2.) Metal wand - debuffs all u have. cheaper but also not sooooo good.
3.) cast dispell on urselves. u might hit it very fast and u will not need to recast all of ur buffs - cool method.
4.) ask for regen. this spell immediatly clears it off. if u have regen running yet it doesnt protect u. professional method."

Interesting. What was the date of that post? (Clicking on link just brings up page, I'd rather not scroll through god knows how many comments to find it). Assuming "doesn't protect you" simply means it lands like a normal dot here. If that is classic that would be pretty dope. The dot itself isn't the worst thing to ever happen to someone, its the potential blocking. And if the resist check was changed that late it would explain why a mob in its 30's is landing that on a 60 with decent resist gear. And we will always live in the land of boiling blood. Just a matter of how annoying it will be. Provided any of this is classic :]

There's a handy little Find function in any web browser. But it's from March 2000, and a similar note is also in the main description at the top.

Sorry I always get this mixed up. :o

Again, that is Boil Blood. Boiling Blood is not a Necro or SK spell.

Lava Duct Crawlers put Boil Blood on their targets.
Which blocks regen spells.

Why are you talking about Boiling Blood?
This thread is about boil blood.
Edit: and yes I realized I said I get them mixed up, and I do. But according to the internet. Boil Blood is what LDC's apply and I know for a fact that the dot LDC's apply blocks regen on p99.

I cant read too good what's this say here? (this page is from july 2001 (meaning velious era))
https://web.archive.org/web/20010720202449/http://eqbeastiary.allakhazam.com/search.shtml?id=3274

Lava duct crawler, or LDC for short. These spider like beasts have a very very nasty DOT (blood boil) which does about 800 damage before fading.
Other commenters say it's this dot too.


But then I see this?

4.) ask for regen. this spell immediatly clears it off. if u have regen running yet it doesnt protect u. professional method.

btw . this spell is not sooooooooo dangerous. it costs between 320 and 480 HP depending on ur values of stamina. u need resist versus magic and not resist versus poison to avoid it.

Well which is it?! FML
@Ciroco - instead of us getting into a pissing match lets try to find the answers. :(

[Ciroco]

I'm operating under the assumption that what is currently on LDCs is the correct spell. I can't think of a reason why the devs would have changed it.

If we're being technical, that dude said blood boil, which isn't a spell at all.
