The (New and Improved) Hey Lynnabel Thread

[thedip]

It doesn't appear that I am getting +30 cold spell power when in Winter wolf form with the Great White Wolf enhancement activated. I have the same spell power for all of the elements (+37), adding a glaciation item (+77) gives me a total 114 cold spell power.

It would seem that both the Swashbuckler stance and the Arcane Epic Past Life Enchant Weapon, give the affected weapon the "Magic" damage type. I assume there are other things out there that do the same thing but I don't have them. Normally this would not be an issue, but the Conjured Shadowblades summoned out of Tier 1 of Feydark Illusionist, break all DR because their damage type is listed as only "Force". However, activating either Swashbuckling or Enchant Weapon adds the Magic type to them, and they lose their innate ability to break DRs. A minor issue but still an issue that I thought I would bring to your attention. I have bug reported this as well incase it isn't seen here.

I can't currently test this to be certain (As I don't have one), but I have a feeling the same thing would occur on the new raid loot that works the same way as the Shadowblades / Flameblades / Whatever other strictly elemental weapons there are. So this might become a bigger deal down the line as more people get those weapons and try to use them with their Arcane Past life.

It's been an issue for over a decade now, ever since Celestia from Caught in the Web. Last we were told fixing it would require a major overhaul of the combat system and how it handles damage types. (So basically not going to happen unless they have some other good reason to be making changes.)

The Embraced the Void capstone in the Pale Master tree isn't applying its effect to all of the Pale Shrouds. I have both Lich and Wraith, but only Wraith is getting the bonus effects and the wording is still using the Greater Shroud from the tree's previous version. I have no idea what happens with Vampire or Zombie.

[Tharlak]

I know that there is another thread where this was raised. I'm mentioning this here in hopes that Lynnabel may notice.

There is an issue with several of the newer favor feats disappearing after a Lesser Reincarnation or Epic TR.

I just did a LR+5 and lost a number of favor feats. Blessings of the Feather, Summer Court feats and Morgrave University feat are no longer present after reincarnating (LR/ER). Talking to the favor agent does not let you restore the feats. I would really appreciate you taking a look.

Thanks.

Could you please take a look at Improved Deception on the Vinelash Bracers from The Icemount Curse.
It seems broken not working on both melee or ranged attacks, which i extensively tested on the Training Dummy...

Honestly, it should just need an overhaul of the various abilities. They changed the War Soul/Warpriest line to no longer give +1 Enhancement Bonus but instead "+1 to damage, and to-hit, and +3 spellpower"; they made Imbue with Shadows able to give +1 Enhancement without adding the Magic tag. They should be able to fix Swashbuckler, the Arcane Past Life feat, Scion of Arborea, the Harper enhancement, and all the rest.

Dunno if this is the appropriate place to post, but I noticed that Shifters (both male and female) have bugged forward animations when wielding one-handed with no off-hand, their legs move as if they are backpedalling. Moving diagonally and with other weapon types in hand doesn't have this issue though.

This has been fixed. They were playing the 'run_backward' animation while moving forward.
The new version should appear in the next update.
Thank you for pointing this out!

Hey Lynnabel,

So this isn't a bug or anything really but some items have really confusing images. Is there anything that can be done, and if so what's the best way to get this "in the system"?

For example the Holy Symbol of Lolth (L21 BTCOE Trinket):

• It's a trinket, but the icon looks like a necklace - this is the most important bit of it in terms of confusion.
• The physical description says it is an eight pointed star
• The icon view window shows a pretty circlet with a decoration that is either a chocker or a necklace or a circlet but either way is definitely not an 8 pointed star.

All glamors for Coat of the Traveler and Van Richen's Coat were broken in update 48.4, with the "clothes" changed to an old (and ugly) brigandine, with the normal coat over it. It is confirmed that glamors made since 48.4 will appear normally.

[thedip]

For the love of all that is holy, either fix "In the Belly of the Beast" or remove it from the saga.

Yet again I have wasted my time and resources trying to fight the Purple Worms and they just go underground and you can't target or fight them (I have managed to use fireball before but this time to no avail) - the event then bugs out and you can't continue. I have lost count how many times I have had to restart this quest - there is total of one (count it one) quest in the Underdark and has been fatally bugged ever since release.

It is pointless to open a bug report as this particular one has been known about for years.

[magaiti]

Enduring Beast (Druid's Natural Protector Tier 3 enhancement) is still bugged.
Tier 1 only gives +1 rage/rest, and no other stated benefits; Tier 2 only gives stated benefits of Tier 1.

Party Chat is constantly and I mean CONSTANTLY breaking. It's getting to the point where it feels like half the time I'm talking to myself and don't realize it. DDO already has bad communication and communication problems. Chat for years was the only solid method. Now nothing is reliable. It has got to become a priority fix.

On Topaz of Damage, but ONLY on +6, not any other I think, "COMPTENCE"

Deathward and Deathblock don't stop you from being instakilled by the pixies' prismatic spray in Feywild. Given that you often run into large groups of them spamming the bejeebus out of it, unavoidable death is pretty much a certainty, which is just generally cheesy. The player version of the spell does not ignore DW/DB, so theirs shouldn't either.

Also, the 30 exceptional sonic spellpower from Melody: Imperial Resonance (from Elyd Charm) isn't stacking with the 30 exceptional universal spell power from Legendary Order's Garb. USP (unlike Potency) should stack with individual spell powers. The exceptional lore/crit chance *is* stacking correctly.

[Alrik_Fassbauer]

My pure level 13 Wizard was just able to inscribe the Artificer ? Alchemist ? Scroll called "Curative Admixture : Cure Critical Wounds". Please check whether this is WAI.
The UMD skill level of that character is 12 points.
The level 1 spell of the these "Curative Admixtures" seemingly cannot be inscribed, on the other hand.
Edit : It's "Critical", not "Serious".

[Azoyhn]

Fastidious Fabricator has two typos.

The actual item effect when applied in game, the buff bar is displaying

+10 Artifact bonus to Armor Class
+25 Artifact bonus to Magical Resistance Rating
?*+10 Artifact bonus to MRR Cap
+5 Artifact bonus to Balance and Repair

It should be looking more like..

+10% Artifact bonus to Armor Class
+25 Artifact bonus to Magical Resistance Rating
+10 Artifact bonus to MRR Cap
+5 Artifact bonus to Balance and Repair

i.e The gear pieces also seem to have the "space" typo but not the artifact bonus to armor class.

+10% Artifact bonus to Armor Class
+25 Artifact bonus to Magical Resistance Rating
?*+10 Artifact bonus to MRR Cap
+5 Artifact bonus to Balance and Repair

It's a worg, worgs can talk. Some can even speak Common.
