Every Light Casts a Shadow Broken

[jmurdock1417]

The enhancement every light casts a shadow from monk henshin mystic tree, is deleveling close enemies as stated, but also delevels companions, both hireling and pc. Need deathward if you plan to use it.

I was using it on a warforged monk, so I don't know whether or not it happens to the pc also, but I didn't see the dw overhead on myself when i killed a mob.

Yes, it will leveldrain yourself too. Just horrible.

This issue keeps appearing as separate threads with the same conclusion.

Every Light came out at the same time in Update 19 as a similar ability in the Ninja Spy tree. It, too, also had an unexpected negative-leveling of allies and self. It was patched.

But bug reports of Every Light's side-effect have not been confirmed or acknowledged yet.

Since several updates have passed since then, we can only workaround the issue, and that is to use Death Ward to avoid it. Perhaps the devs see it as WAI because the effect can be overused, so DW is required to offset a party with a Mystic throwing it around. Yet, a ninja has no problem in performing a similar ability.

Please send bug reports to the devs--simply talking about it in the forums is no assurance that the matter will gain attention.

To the last bit: not filing a bug and only taking to the forums guarantees they won't see it. Put the word Bug in the title if you can't submit to the tool.

Worth reminding people that the ingame bug reporting has been back up and working for a while now.

Did that before posting, I posted since I hadn't seen anything before. Just trying to be sure forumites knew about it.
