Game Mechanics: Treeform bug

[Nirgon]

I do post em, people refuse to believe they are real or that the time line is far enough (trust me it is).

Tree Form spells will change the caster into a human male in a zone without trees.

Now the question is, when does this end and the rule for Tree Form that I described being on Al'kabor come into play?


JUNE 27, 2001

Spirit of the Oak will no longer be overwritten by any beneficial spells.

JULY 10, 2001

Stacking issues with 'change form' type spells have been corrected. Lich and Clarity will no longer stack, nor will Spirit of Wolf and Wolf Form.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2002

Boon of Garou and other illusions now interact the right way.

Which may or may not refer to the issue in the OP. Still looking. I did find a reference to another illusion spell that was mistakenly turning players into human males and was "fixed some time ago".

The rules for treeform that seem to be in place on Al'kabor do seem the most roleplayish though, with the druid having to be within range of some real trees (underground roots?? line of sight not needed after all) to "tap into" nature so to speak. -pun intended.

wait you mean lich and clarity should have stacked if classic for a while?

dear god that would have been amazing

I hope you guys know that when something says "these will no longer stack" it does not always imply that it stacked from day 1 up until then. We got into this with the whole necro recourse being dispellable and some luclin patch note. Still insane that you can dispel the recourse here with the lowly cancel magic spell... especially considering that a high ranking botb necro from live spelled it all out.

Tons changed in Velious, then even more (big time) with spells in Luclin and then there were resulting bugs which were fixed as those went in. Do not interpret those being fixed as "like this since day 1".

Dead horse beaten +1.

Regarding wolf + tree form here? Totally a bug. You should only be able to have one active illusion at a time.

this will work without being a in wolf form first. freeport docks and highkeep come to mind.
