    Default Summer Smoke: Elfing ridiculous...

    ...that this "buff" has a chance to deal 2400+ Fire Damage (after 57 were blocked by Fire Resist) to a player.

    It's also pathetically stupid that it also prevents the "Entropic" damage from the Grave Wrappings.

    If you are a player using this ED power and were not aware please take note.

    If you are aware and continue to use this then you are useless.

    Just like the Exalted Angel "Judgement" killing Pale Masters was fixed, this too needs to be fixed.

    With the damage to you part, could you explain. I've had this buff on my numerous times. This is the first i've heard of this reaction.

    Which quest? which mob?

    I believe, on the basis of response from the community, that this was what killed me in Shroud part 1.

    Apart from it being funny as... well, as very funny thing, it really should be looked at.

    Actually, smoke wasn't fixed. Spores was.

    It also blocks all buffs on weapons only applying just SS. It is a dps drop, and whenever I see it active in a party, I immediately request that it be turned off.

    To regain your weapon's abilities, swap to a different set, then swap back to the weapon you want to use.

    Default Last nite...Hard Shroud pt 5

    2 Party members killed by Summer Smoke.

    Lost in Swamp. Summer Smoke broke (temporarily) my Grave Wrappings Entropic Power....

    Then killed me wearing other wraps.

    If I see Summer Smoke in group....I leave. If I am leader I leave and reform.

    If I get Summer Smoke by being near someone with it in a public zone I get even more frustrated with the short-sighted, non-testing, "Game Experience may change during on-line play" Devs.

    THANK YOU! I got this for the first time last night and had NO idea *** it was.

    I walked in clean and picked it up in the vendor area of Eveningstar.

    Great, does it persist through relogs? 'cause it hit me right before I logged out for the night.

    EDIT: whew, nope, it doesn't.

    Well, I haven't died to it lately, but I haven't seen it much on, either. Partly because I've been playing an emerald variant, and one thing that is definitely still bugged (at least on my toon), is the taking-away-of-weapon-effects part. When it is on, my wraps lose all their other effects.

    thanks for the reply!
    I ran around high road with it on, but just trying to proc it, so wasn't using much else on purpose. Couldn't get it to proc in about 20 mins or so. Elfing worthless. May strip other weapon effects, rarely procs, waste of space.

    I haven't been in primal for a while so....

    However back in u16p1? I think it was the devs stated that they fixed summer smoke, Insidious Spores, and Chill of Winter. Since then this is the first I've heard of them still being broken. If it's still broken we need to start spreading the word about it again since it's suppossed to be fixed and safe to use.

    Well, how do people know? Release notes stated it was fixed, so everybody who adheres to them will be kicked by other people and is mislead like in many wording problems. That is a serious problem.

    It is things like these which make me angry. If I cannot rely on descriptive texts and have to stumble upon a random forum post every once in a while I just want my money back. :/
