SoW Sword Clicky
 

The clicky SoW effect from Blood Orchid Katana doesn't count as the same spell as regular cast SoW from a shaman/druid/ranger. As a result, when you have one and then get the other, it will put the spell in the first available buff slot instead of overwriting where it already was.

Tried to replicate this and didn't have the same results.

Test:
On a ranger character
From the top: endure cold, endure disease, spirit of wolf.
Clicked off Endure Cold
Clicked Blood Orchid Katana
Spirit of Wolf was overwritten in slot 3.

I have experienced the sword sow taking a different spell slot

Prolly was because a higher level one was cast

I will try again to replicate this - I might have experienced this when using SoW potions with SoW sword clicky.

For this era shouldn't all spells be jumping to the first available spot rather than over writing..

No, because if that were the case you could still stack PR and Talisman of Shadoo.
Or you could stack Cleric and druid hp buffs.

I think nirg is saying something like if you have

Slot 1 sow
2 cleric buff
3 see invis
4 druid buff

when the higher version of the spell is cast the weaker one will fade so you might see

sow
cleric
SI

or

So
Druid
SI

got real lazy typing haha

Here's a buff stack


[Empty]
[Shielding]
[HP Buff]
[Spirit of Wolf]

You get Spirit of Wolf cast on you.

Here it will look like this:

[Empty]
[Shielding]
[HP Buff]
[Spirit of Wolf (fresh)]

It should look like this:

[Spirit of Wolf]
[Shielding]
[HP Buff]
[Empty]


Sorry if I wasn't clear.

Logic being -> remove existing spell, attempt to place it in next available slot.

can you add not equippable by twainz ...shits classic
