chance to resist/fizzle

[kaos057]

I'm kinda curious about this. It seems that when you get to 20% mana your chance to fizzle or be resisted goes up massively. It's so bad that I find myself laughing quite often because I know it's gonna resist before it lands every time. Is it coded to be like this on purpose?

I notice I seem to fizzle at very high rates when you ONLY have the amount of mana avail to cast 1 spell ( whatever that may be )

its nearly clockwork medding for a port, I let the mana tick once maybe twice beyond the amount required to cast and boom fizzle.

Port spells are like lvl 30-40 and I am lvl 60 heh frustrating !

- If you have just enough enough mana to cast this spell - it will fizzle! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
