Spells: Druid Spell Breath of Ro

Bokke · #1 08-07-2015, 06:49 PM

Hey,

Breath of Ro has been giving the message "Your spell did not take hold" recently.
I did some testing and discovered if a target has Protection of the Glades then Breath of Ro will not take hold (it will still resist but if it passes the resist check then it wont take hold)

Cheers,

This isn't limited to BoR. Any spell with an AC debuff component in effect slot 1 (e.g., Fixation of Ro) is also blocked. This is due to a stacking rule

which didn't exist during Velious, but does here because p99's spell file is populated with data from much later eras.

Ah thanks for the tip.

Hopefully it gets looked at. The large number of spell resists and small number of partial hits is already an issue - especially for druids (We should be getting way less resists and way more partials). Not being able to use Ro is pretty brutal.

Can confirm this happened again today in RV against Metraq about 10 min ago.

I don't mind.

Breath of Ro is definitely resisting. It's probably working closer to how FR spells should work right now than Scoriae or Wildfire is.

Quoted for truth.

Also the not take hold is also happening with other spells like OOS and bard snare. Its pretty weird.
