Crafting: Pure Good Burst is bugged?

[bobbryan2]

Holy ****... People are complaining that this isn't good enough!

No... people are complaining that it's not doing what it says it does.

If you want to hear people complaining that the raid loot isn't good enough... ask casters how they feel about the improved magnetism VI they can craft.

[Angelus_dead]

Correct, because a lot of the bursting effects from the raid crafting seem to work differently then the same effect as it currently stands in the game

Zero of the bursting effects from the raid work differently than on other weapons in the game.

So... if you have Frost and Flaming Burst... you get the 1d6 of cold and fire on every hit? And the 1d10 fire on crits?

Yes it should.

In fact it's my understanding that acid and acid burst gives you 2d6 acid dmg/hit and the extra xD10 on crits.

1d6 for acid, another 1d6 for the acid/hit part of the acid burst and then then ther acid burst from the acid burst on crits.

[Rekker]

In the case of gpk's weapons you should get...

vs. Evil aligned
2d6 (holy)
1d6 (pure good from good burst)
4d6 (good burst)

vs. Neutral aligned
0d6 (holy)
1d6 (pure good from good burst)
4d6 (good burst)

Intuitively, yes. But, according to the specific item description (which I believe was copy/pasted and inaccurately edited from Holy Burst) you should get:
vs. Evil aligned
2d6 (holy)
1d6 (pure good from good burst)
4d6 (good burst)

vs. Neutral aligned
0d6 (holy)
1d6 (pure good from good burst)
0d6 (good burst)

But, here's what you actually get:
vs. Evil aligned
2d6 (holy)
0d6 (pure good from good burst)
4d6 (good burst)

vs. Neutral aligned
0d6 (holy)
0d6 (pure good from good burst)
4d6 (good burst)

What about if you combine 2 elementals, does that work?

IE Flaming + Flaming burst maul

Do you get d6 + d6 + (on crit) 2d10?

or just d6 + 2d10?

[Mad_Bombardier]

It's 1d6+1d6+xd10, even with the same element and burst.

[Turial]

If we based it on how the acid line is working then you would get 1d6 from weapons acid effect + 1d6 from weapons acid effect + 2d10 from weapons acid burst effect.

Well it's more like "Holy **** why can a non-epic level character even have access to this?"

Can I have a +5 Transmuting Greensteel holy burst of pure good burst scimitar


come on.... pllzzzzzzzz.

2 years has gotta count for something.

[Drider]

It's pretty simple.. the only thing broken is that the pure good burst is not giving it's *always on* 1d6 damage. For me everything else has been working as it should.

I have bug reported this in game.. I suggest those with the same problem do the same.

[cm2_supernova]

Assuming that this gets fixed in a future patch...do you think that it will be retroactive to ones already crafted, or am I going to have to go through all that agian?

Should be no reason it wouldn't be retroactive because they just need to fix the pure good effect itself, not the weapons that have it.. And since its only on greensteel weps, just should work.

[Rekker]

I just wish they would clarify. If its good burst and good blast it should work against all non-good. I don't want to craft an item that only works against evil. If thats the case I'll stick to the acid route.

I saw that WDA that the pure good particle effect is going to be fixed...is that the 1d6\hit?

[Drith]

An excellent question, unfortunately the WDA is sorely lacking clarifications...

[Angelus_dead]

To game developers, "particle effect" means the visual effect that puts a whitish flame on the weapon. It has no impact on the same inflicted, and is graphical only.

Note that DDO's weapon particle effects have been buggy since module 6, and make everything more ugly. So the WDA is real saying that a bunch of Green Steel swords are about to become ugly shiskabobs.

[Yuhjn]

so you're upset because it's missing the 1d6 good damage that the description shows?
