Title: Druid's elemental essence damage
Post by: Disorder on December 31, 2019, 06:43:10 AM
Elemental dmg of this feat is ignoring resistances of creatures normally immune to specific dmg type. For example: frost and fire essence hurts cursts, fire essence hurts fire trolls.
It looks like all types of elemental essences affect spectral creatures, like ghastrian church spirits.

It also stacks, allowing you to take all the elemental essence feats and have a super-weapon that does all the damage types on every hit.  Not sure if that's intended but I assume it isn't.

I suspect the stacking is acceptable due to each taking a charge of wildshape. So going full rainbow mode would not just require a heavy feat investment to get them all, it would then take a hefty chunk of your wildshape to remain powered up.

Ignoring resistances is spooky, tho.

Yeah, you pretty much need Extra Wildshape and/or Elemental Shape to benefit from using all 4. You also only get them for 10 minutes at most. Not a big deal, of course, when a Druid (or really anyone) at level 16 is doing most of their dungeons in a single rest period (depending on party).

The resistances thing is a bug that's getting looked at according to MAB on Discord.

Bumping this. I've been told behaviour of the feat I've listed some time ago is still the same.

It's the nature of the effect of this applied command.

I wouldn't be surprised if divine might was bypassing those few items with divine resistance on them as well.

Yup. Seems to be an issue with NWN engine.
