>>Also when released it will no longer increase your accuracy by over three orders of magnitude.

It all makes sense now.

Traim and I were Baffled when I had released all of my spells and was owning him. It completely defied all of our previous testing and he had to run go get healed because I was owning him so hard.

Good thing this was fixed -- Thanks!

Looks like I was unknowingly relying on this bug; I'm having a much harder time backtraining my weapons at level now. I'll need to reevaluate my hunting strategy.

Actually, a quick assess showed this:
> You appear to be having difficulty targeting melee and ranged attacks.

I haven't been done anything to create such a penalty (no retreating, no Dema, etc.). Could the Rage changes have caused it?

I know Rage used to give a heck of a defensive penalty, but I thought Ricinus had fixed that piece.

This is an offense penalty, so I doubt it's the same thing. I tried releasing Rage and recasting, but the penalty's still there.

That's the message for the retreat penalty.

Not just retreat. You get it for any penalty. And I hadn't retreated in hours.

Log out and in? Could it be a similar bug to the 'level or train stats with buffs in effect' thing?

I did not realize that. Good to know, thanks.

Fixed. If anyone else has this happen either assist or just wait 15-20 minutes (I wouldn't use Rage during that time to be safe) and it should go away on it's own.

Raesh came down and ripped it off me. Apparently the Rage conversion gave me -10000% to hit.

Which is still notably smaller then the offensive bonus I gave myself with the old version when releasing it.

Could be a coincidence, but invoke bond just broke for me again. Last time it happened, it fixed itself with time (or some behind-the-scenes GM fixed it).


You gesture at a glaes javelin.
Your cambrinth armband emits a loud snap as it discharges all its power to aid your spell.
Your cambrinth sphere emits a loud snap as it discharges all its power to aid your spell.
You close your eyes briefly, focusing on the dull thumping of your own heart. Extending that focus to a glaes javelin, you feel it resonate with you.

>empty right
You drop a glaes javelin.

>invoke bond

>wait
Time drags on by...

Unrelated. Resonance is also high up on my list of spells to beat to death with a shovel.
