Breath of Karana lvl 56 Druid spell

[parlay1]

Not sure which is incorrect so just giving you a heads up and looking for an answer if possible.

P99 wiki lists this spell as a 772-812 pt dd with stun, it actually does 184pts of damage.

Is it a bug and doing too little damage or is working as it should be?

Thanks in advance.

The wiki is correct and this is still broken.

In classic this spell did 772-812 for 250 mana. Seems to be only doing 184-192 for 250 mana.

Some time later (post Luclin) it was changed to 300 dmg for 180 mana.

Sure you aren't thinking Fist of Karana?

Well he's saying 812, which is why I.. nvm.

Check Velious sp.dat for breath, never saw it used!

Was looking forward to this spell as druids 2nd only spell in a line of outdoor mana efficient fast castinng nukes with stun..what a disappointment

Dude I know what fist of karana does. I'd just like a parse of Velious sp.dat for Breath of Karana to prove the change requested. That spell was never changed Kunark->Vel.

I posted this right after Kunark released, can't find my post though.

Please fix. Also, tunare's request... holy shit, worthless cause it's broken. I charmed a puma in EC for 1 tick, yes!

"Tunare's request is kind of stupid, but it does have *one* advantage... that being, you can kill your pet after you're done and get back whatever you gave it. So if you were to give it something that say, proc'ed a slow... course I'm not sure what ones will proc at such a low level.

But yeah, otherwise it's just a toy spell."

"The only benefit is the when charm wears off the pet in non agro on you. But, that being said, I don't think I have ever used it. Maybe once just to see if it worked, but not in any practical sense."

Breath of karana is doing pitiful damage. Is this intended?

While looking through lucy's I noticed that this breath of karana spell was changed many times in velious and luclin, possibly in kunark as well but lucy's archive doesn't seem to go back that far.

In its current form on p99 it may or may not be working as intended for our time era, however as far as I've been able to find there is no evidence of the spell being changed prior to velious. This spell deffinetly did more damage in velious on live than it does here on p99 though.

I don't think the damage was increased to over 700 till luclin. I think it did around 300 in kunark, maybe a little more. Is there no spell info database we can find that had info prior to velious?


Edit: yes, tunares request is supposed to be a long (possibly fixed) duration dire charm like spell for animals lvl 35 and under. Seemed silly for a lvl 56 spell but I do remember using it to charm corudoth in iceclad for up to 50+ minutes at a time while waiting for lodizal. However all of the most accurate spell data I've found dates back to early velious era at the earliest. I can't comment on how this spell worked on live prior to velious though. But I do know that if this spell is lasting less time than the random duration call of karana, something isn't right.
