The List of Vague and Incorrect Descriptions

[Qzipoun]

Use Magical Device:

• The percentage of activation is always off by 5% on the display for scrolls and wands.

Off by 5% in which way? Better or worse chance than the description? Might want to add that, or should I create a thread for vague and incorrect descriptions of vague and incorrect descriptions?

Pffft! Whatever.

Fixed.

Found in the compendium under rogue.

Dexterity is the most important stat for rogues. High dexterity boosts a rogue's defense and reflexes and improves key rogue skills like sneaking and trap disarming.

If this is the wrong thread I apologize.

The new bard weapon from sentinals. You slowly regenerate songs over time...also the new monk bracers from there have a vague description of their boost to monk stances.

Added Vampirisms:

Lesser Vampirism:

• Amount of HP drained per hit - Player answer: 1 HP per hit

Vampirism:

Hopefully this works. It's my first time posting screen shots!





Based on the previously-linked screen shot, I'm guessing that I've got a bum Item Description for some reason. Maybe it was a fix that wasn't made retroactive?

Thanks, you rock!

Maybe it was a fix that wasn't made retroactive?

I know there was a change but it was supposed to be retroactive, and it was to the effect rather than the description.

Try putting it in the Stone of Change, just to see.

Sundering Ooze Guard

• Chance of AC decrease
• Amount of AC decrease
• Chance of summoning an Ooze

[Kintro]

Silver Flame Lesser Healing Potion

• States 250hp healed when it only heals 100

[Borror0]

Added both Silver Flame Lesser Healing Potion and Sundering Ooze Guard.

By the way, Kintro, do you know if Sundering Ooze Guard has a duration or if it lasts forever? I don't have a Sundering Ooze Guard item so I can't test. The description does not list any, but it would be unusual for it not to. Also, thanks for your outstanding contribution to this thread.

[HallowedOne]

Cooldown times on many Enhancements.

Just the ones I remind:

Shroud of the Lich
Shroud of the Wraith
Unyielding Sovereignty

and probably every clickie ability granted by enhancemnets

Missing? Wrong? Other?

You're welcome, I've found it very useful when trying to make build decisions!

I do have one somewhere, I'll give it a test tomorrow some time.

[HallowedOne]

100% sure of NOT having the cooldown time:

Unyielding Sovereignty
Glorious Stand
Shroud of Lich
Shroud of Wraith
Divine Sacrifice
Dol Dorn's Champion

I said "probably every other clickie you get with enhancement" because it seems most descriptions don't have any information about cooldown, with the exception of cases when you improve such abiblities, like Exalted Smite.

And those ARE VERY IMPORTANT info - for example, 5mins cooldown of Shroud of the Lich made me decide to abandon an idea I had

24 seconds. It's probably actually 25 but ticks down to 24 instantly.

I agree. I'll verify those and get the values, and add them later.

24 seconds. It's probably actually 25 but ticks down to 24 instantly.

Added. Thanks.

Added paralyzing.

Paralyzing:

• Incorrectly states it paralyzes the target; it dazes the target
• Unintuitive name. Should be called Dazing, instead

[Borror0]

Added a little more to paralyzing:
*Does not mention the interval at which saves are made
*"every several seconds" is not proper English, if you are to be purposely vague, at least say "every few seconds"

[Kintro]

DDO Store Listings for Cosmetic Helms (Bunny Hat, Fiendish Rabbit Helm, Festival Mask I, Festival Mask II)

• Doesn't list type of bonus.

Not sure if the items themselves list the types but it would be better to know before purchase!

[Borror0]

Nearly all descriptions of DDO Store items are pathetic. I might have to start a category on those.
