Game Mechanics: Feign death and spells

[Nirgon]

Yes absolutely a resist should still break your FD.

sadly i agree that FD should without question be broken by any negative spell. that guide however is wrong about broken from beneficial spells like a heal... getting healed while FD was always possible iirc. heres a link to the stonewall AA which was really only necessary because even resisted spells broke fd.

this AA was added during GoD exp

1. Better PoP AAs, please! Dual wield counterpart to ferocity or maybe Stalwart Endurance. Something to do with FD would be nicer, like reduced feign failure rate or spells (resisted, or chance on unresisted) not breaking feign. Hand to hand mastery is something we'd like to see as well.

Or heck, how about *ANY* AA's that have anything to do with our true class defining ability, Feign Death? How about an AA to lower our feign fail rate, even by a small percentage? How about one that at least gives us a chance to maintain feign if we're hit by a spell we resist?

Emphasis mine. Second quote is from Arlos (LOS monk), and pretty much seals it for me that this needs to change unless someone has a good earlier source.

Fixed, pending update.

Spell Resists breaking Sneak/Hide as well then?

[Nirgon]

Spot on with the spell resist breaking FD. Jolly good.
