Divine Might / Divine Shield Bugged
« on: October 20, 2018, 11:41:21 PM »
For some reason Divine might and Divine Shield can be activated even when already active.
Used to be that it wouldn't activate until it ran out.

That's not a bug; they don't stack but they remove the previous one activated.

Oh but its not how it used to work on the server.
i used to be able to click between them on and off and when it ran out it would activate again.
Now when i do it it just uses up all my turn undead.

On positive side it works now while you are invisible or stealthed.

It is inconvenient though. I wouldn't mind if it had some sort of timer on it like Profane Lifeleech.

Once again, not a bug. And while it uses up a turn undead use it also extends it by that number of rounds. It’s the only way for now to make it work with the Invis bug.

Both have pretty short durations. Perhaps for paladins who can amp Cha so much it's a bigger issue.

If you want to know when they drop, just have your PC sheet open and keep an eye on your AB and AC.

My windows cracked, but they can be replaced.

Actually I just noticed that I can use Divine Shield infinite ammount of times now. It never runs out after my turn undeads have been used.

This is how I usually track it, but last night my PC sheet wasn’t updating my AC when Divine Shield wore off. So the only way I knew it wore off was by tracking the combat log and waiting until I got hit on an attack that wouldn’t hit me if Divine Shield was active - obviously not  great method of determining when I needed to activate another charge use of Divine Shield. Tried relogging, but had the same issue with my character sheet.

REDACTED

You should check to make sure it's actually firing and not just doing the visual effect. If it is the case, you should probably report that immediately and maybe consider deleting your post since it's a pretty clear exploit.

We're looking into fixing it asap, in the meantime I'll remind everyone not to abuse the exploit.

Divine Shield now seems to obey the uses per day limitation. This appears to be fixed.
