Necro Level 12 Pet: Convoke Shadow
This spell is broken.
I have read this thread... http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=115284 and all of the downplaying of the issue as if it is not an issue. But here are the facts. Yes, level 12 pet is the first to summon only blue pets at level. e.g., level 8 spell summons level 7-9 pet (can tell by con if you get max pet). similarly, level 16 will summon a pet of level 12-16 (can tell by con at level 16 ifyou have max pet). And, as you level up tothe next pet level, when con is no longer effective, you use the pet's max damage as an indicator (e.g., 59 spectre max hit is 61). Most necros know these things. But, Level 12 (Convoke Shadow) is broken. It only summons ONE level of pet which max hits for a whopping 11. A few things wrong about this... ONE, the level 8 max pet can hit for 12. that's right... a lower level pet spell makes a more powerful pet. And,... TWO, all other pet spells summon a random range of pets (ala, the 8 and 16 examples, above). This spell (after 30 or so casts) only summons ONE level of pet.. and, lastly... The one level it DOES summon is LOWER than the wiki says it should be. Wiki says it should hit for (max) 12-16, but this pet maxes for 11... every single cast. This spell is broken. | ||

For what it's worth, I believe if you want to show it should be fixed you need to post evidence in era. While I don't know for sure, EQ was filled with tons of quirks that don't make sense (this may be one of them). They have tried to create the same world with those quirks.
Also, referencing a wiki page won't count as evidence. They could be created from out of era content or have bad information. I think your only shot with this post is if a dev looked at the code for that spell and found a glitch they didn't intend.

Hello! Here is the link you need for this bug report:
EQ Castersrealm entry on Convoke Shadow from 2003: http://web.archive.org/web/200306101...ell.asp?Id=396 Looking through the comments, there's the occasional conflicting information. Some state the max level is level 11, others say that you can very very very rarely get a level 12 pet who hits for 18. I have the relevant comments quoted below. 2003 comment: Quote:
