Its large. I didnt shrink it down, just changed its compression.

Look at the skill description for pestilence.


To me... it looks like a dev note that should have been removed.

Maybe a change coming for it?


OMG photobucket sux, it down sizes it. ill chop it out.

You refer to the "It Was:"
I have seen this before on some other skill, I forget which.

Looks like 'somebody' didnt finish up 'something', good call on finding it, sure it'll be fixed eventually.

This is quite new since I unlocked Pestilence only 2-3 days ago.

Yeah, it's been there since release. There are dozens of errors in skill descriptions: Aura of the Lich has a typo, Weapon of Fury says "for X seconds, target ally gains Y adrenaline and 1 energy"... while doing what? (needs to say "every time target ally attacks")

Not to mention simple inaccuracies. Obsidian Flame used to say "this spell ignores armor and magic resistance". Magic resistance?? What's that? Now it just says "this spell ignores armor" instead of simply "Obsidian Flame deals X shadow damage to target foes" because that's what ob flame is. It doesn't trigger mantra of earth and ignores armor, therefore it's shadow damage. Just like shadow strike or desecrate enchantments.

I think the error there is that Obsidian flame Ignores magic resistance, ie: Mantra of earth. and is earth damage, as it is under EARTH MAGIC.

I was a little more freaked out by the three 6s in that description, lol. That's pretty interesting though. Check this out too, it was a bug from a while ago. (before nightfall came out) I don't have any pics of the spirit in battle, not sure if it was just a typo or a full blown bug. O well

Wow, what a high level spirit

It was just a typo iirc, swapping/replacing the spirit modifier with it's level. So in that case, 200% casting time and maintainance cost becomes level 200
