Secret Changes

I was wondering about consume corpse and bummed it didnt show to have the change, now I have to check that out

This change and the prior one (beefing the energy) makes it nice on several levels (some decent gain healh & energy, quick enough, and corpse denial)

Cool, like Searing Heat in a previous update.

My Fireballs make (to a 60AL enemy, so 100% damage after armor) 119 and no more; Rodgort's Invocation makes 91 and sets on fire 3 secs. How much are 7 arrows of health degen * 3 secs? I think its more than a "little over Fireball". Anyway, not sure how much damage is 1 arrow of health degen, so maybe I'm wrong.

It always did damage, but they updated it so that you always see the damage numbers now. Smae as you always see the damage from fragility now as well.

#When you cast a Hex or Enchantment that stays on a character and deals damage or performs healing, you can now see floating numbers showing the result of that damage or healing.

1 health degen is 2 health less per second * 7 * 3 = 21 health less.
but there is more:
burning makes monks waste 1-4 energy and a skill recharge of ~1/2 seconds if they try to heal it efficiently, compared to efficient "elemental damage" healing/prevention wich they can cover easier.

is it just me or does bleeding give -4 hp degen now instead of -3?

never saw that on the update list

IGNORE NOW ACTUALLY WORKS!!!!!!!!!!
I dont know when this happened though, just noticed it a couple days ago.

That is REALLY great. But now I need like 1.000.000 ignore entries

Cheers

It was always an useable skill. In fact, I take it over Necrotic Transversal. It's an insane skill.

i don't want to open a flame on "was consume corpse usable before delay removal"... i just wanted to point out that it's removed too...
btw i mean that now is MUCH mor usable, because before it had same time of a 2second corpse spell and with many profane necro around with bboots you never managed to use a corpse... now you can see many necro (especially iway) dancing around on corpses...

You mean, of course, 42 health less, making Rodgort's do 91 + 42 = 133 damage.

Rodgort's Invocation does the same base damage as Fireball (116 with 16 in Fire Magic) so it's actually a total of 158 damage.

Not sure if it's a general change, or to a specific skill, but at the least, Mantra of Recall is garbage for me now.

The way it used to go, with an enchantment mod +20% staff;

Cast Mantra of Recall
<20 seconds>
Recast Mantra of Recall
<3 seconds>
Original Mantra of Recall ends, you get the energy, and the second Mantra of Recall is still on

Now;

Cast Mantra of Recall
<20 seconds>
Recast Mantra of Recall
<3 seconds>
Original Mantra of Recall is lost, you get no energy, you stupidly wasted your time and energy.

If you make the mistake of casting Mantra of Recall too soon, it causes you to waste it all. Was just fighting a warrior with all healing/tactics in the random arena, so I had time to play with it. Annoying =\

It already didn't give all that much energy compared to other options, and it was prone to giving it at the wrong time... By chain casting them so it's always on, and you cast it just before it ends (usually refilling your energy bar, at least), at least the energy was never entirely wasted.

While Contemplation of Purity might be nice, I'm not spending 15 energy to get 18-25.

Interestingly enough, they seemed to have changed the trade window. Now you can't see the merchant worth of the other player's items, which actually allowed you to see how many total they had. I'm not sure if this was covered under the fix where they made plat and gold separate.

LOL

This is one which they probably class as "Fixed miscellaneous rare crash bugs."

which are ACTUALLY not miscellaneous or even rare, but they call them that to avoid embarasment.

Perhaps some of the skill changes are just due to the describtion updates. They might have always done that, but were miss printed.

I'm pretty sure you wasn't able to see that before the last update. After the summer update I decided to get rid of all my gold/purples by selling them at 5x the merchant price (which if you ask me was a bargain, some almost perfect golds for 1-1.2k). I had problems because people wasn't able to see the announced merchant price. I wasn't able either to see that in merchant window, only in inventory window.

Needless to say, I sold them all at 5x merchant price...
