Rain spells
 
Rain spells are broken here. Not sure if it is as intended by the timeline, but my rain spells (as a mage) always try to hit pets in the vicinity.

Part of my combo always used to be rain spelling a target on live, but I am unable to do that here unless I pull the pet back.

I believe this was nerfed on purpose Raz. Originally on this server rain did not effect pets, pets now eat one of the waves.

Cheers!

Untill I see proof otherwise, I am not convinced.

It doesn't make sense to have a spell that is rendered completely useless.

I believe the dev's are focused on making this as classic as possible. In this case, they were right to nerf rain spells.

Some things, such as pets procing on any mob with Sword of Runes wasn't added in because pet classes were already powerful. This of course was classic, but was not added in to make classes more balanced.

It's a hodge-podge of nerfs and changes, some justified as classic, some justified as balance, but all justified. Bottom line is what devs decide is best for the server is implemented for the server. We mere mortals simply enjoy the awesome game they've given us! :D

Completely useless is an overstatement. :P

It's not a bug.

Is there any particular reason rains have a super high resist rate?

I can rain a green mob on red99 and get 2 resists out of 3, but using normal nukes i never ever seen a resist from the same type of mob, seems like it's using a weird resist check. Cannot confirm for pvp only pve
