Bump. This is resisting more than it should, Technique brougthup solid evidence after Nilbog's reply indicating that the 0 to -200 resist adjustment was due to the removal of all Lure (X) effects and replacement via resist adjustment mods.

Can a dev verify that this spell correctly has a resist modifier. This is the spell data from the goldmine of spdata files Ele found:

Quote:
Ro`s Fiery Sundering
Dragon Resistance
Decrease Fire Resist from 37 (L39) to 42 (L60)
Decrease Armor Class (AC) from 6 (L39) to 8 (L60)


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Classes: Dru (L39)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Range to Target: 200 feet

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Skill: Evocation
Allowable Targets: All

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Resistance Check: Fire + 5

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mana Required: 50
Spell Duration: 50 ticks (5.0 minutes)
Duration Formula: 1
Casting Time: 3.50 seconds
Spell Recovery: 2.50 seconds
Recast Delay: 6.0 seconds

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spell cast on you: You are immolated by blazing flames.
Spell cast on someone: Soandso is immolated by blazing flames.
Spell fades: The flames die down.
Looking at Dragon Fear (a -150 resist check spell after change, also a Lure (6) in Lucy History), it also has the same description in this spell parser:

Quote:
Dragon Roar
Dragon Resistance
Fear


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Classes: None

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Area Effect Range: 300 feet

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Skill: Instantaneous
Allowable Targets: Point Blank AoE

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Resistance Check: Magic

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spell Duration: 3 ticks (18 seconds)
Duration Formula: 7
Recast Delay: 36.0 seconds

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When someone casts: Soandso lets loose a mighty roar.
Spell cast on you: You flee in terror.
Spell fades: You are no longer afraid.
So both spells have a history in Lucy with a -XXX Resist check being added in 2002 as well as a Lure (6) line being removed. They also show a "Dragon Resistance" part of their description in a 2001 Spell data Parser of a spdata file from January 2001.

In Summary:

Ro' Fiery Sundering needs a -150-200 resist check added to it to make it damn near unresistable.
