Manaskin using the wrong number of peridots
I recently dinged 52 on my wizard and discovered that Manaskin is consuming 2 pdots per cast, instead of 1 as it should. For evidence, I offer the following:
http://web.archive.org/web/200006230...://graffe.com/ Archived www.graffe.com from June of 2000. If you click on "spells" on the left it bumps you to September 18, 2000. Click on lvl 52 and find the following (bold added by me): Quote:
http://everquest.allakhazam.com/hist...es-2000-1.html All patch messages from January 2000 - June 2000, no mention of manaskin. http://everquest.allakhazam.com/hist...es-2000-2.html All patch messages from July 2000 - December 2000, no mention of manaskin. Based on that, it is reasonable to presume that the information from graffe.com September 18, 2000 is applicable to the current point of the P99 timeline, and manaskin should only be consuming 1 peridot per cast.

It should definatly be 1 peridot.
Also the recast delay should be 0.00 seconds. The only delay this spell should have is the global coolddown of the spell bar. Per lucy 2003-01-15 11:04 Changed Recast Time from 0.0 seconds to 2.2 seconds | ||

P.S.
I thought i was running out of dots fast on my Necro! Can't beleive i didnt notice it was taking 2.... Once this is confirmed and changed, I would not be mad if i checked my bank one day and found a few stacks of dots! /sarcastic humor | ||

This is definitely a 2 peridot spell, it gets changed later to single dot use

I recall it being 1 dot, as hard as I try to remember. The links provided are a good start to showing that, Along with the fact that every single other skin spell for mage and necro uses 1 component. If it was changed from 2 dots to 1 dot like you say, it had to have happened before late 2002 or lucy would show the change, and it doesnt. If you really recall it being 2 dots, please try to find something that shows it. People can recall things wrong, I can as well. What we need is forum posts, wayback website links ect showing something reffering to this spell using 2 dots.. As it is right now, it looks like this should be changed to 1 dot. | |||

I don't ever remember this spell using two Peridots. I played a wizard on live from when the game was released until Luclin came out. As others have stated, I could be wrong, but I think I'd remember something costing 20p per cast instead of 10p per cast.

It was 2 dots. Sometime in between Kunark and Velious it was changed:
