Anti-magic bug with shimmering black dye 03/23/2017 09:10 AM CDT
While holding this "shimmering black vial of dye," no spell can be cast on me or at me, it seems. Neat, but SO broken. Bugged in-game. Log below.

You inhale deeply upon your pipe, puckering your lips as you send out three rings of smoke before you, then puff out a small vine of smoke that darts right through all three which causes them to disperse in a hazy shroud!

I would so buy one of those, just to be invulnerable to Earthen Fury... :)

It was obviously distilled from essence of Vvrael. The shimmers are their tears.

Thanks for reporting it. It's a new bug, and causes quite a bit of scroll for GameMasters when it triggers. It's not an easy fix, so in the meantime please avoid holding those dyes unless you're actually using them right then. :)

I want it back, please?

The real question is if it's possible to make a fist while holding a vial of dye. That'd make for a great monk punch...

Just to make it absolutely clear, every time someone tries this, we immediately get notified. If anyone is caught doing it intentionally, you will be consulted and potentially issued an official warning for game mechanics abuse.
