Game Mechanics: Game breaking exploit necro heal

[koros]

That's pretty much exactly how it was. If you got shadowbond cast on you, you received a 24 sec heal. if you were the necro who cast it, you sill got the shadowbond icon, which looked the same, but it took your hp.

if you got siphon strength cast on you, you got a several minute str debuff with that name, if you cast it on a target, you got the buff with +strength.

I warned you all. Next time it won't be suspensions.

Make posts that links that back up your agreements/argument. Trolling each other to see who takes the bait won't cut it.

Backed off this thread due to Ambertis coming down hard on the discussion.

However, someone who won the Rallos necro botb came in this thread and posted commentary.

We're all also very well aware by now that the Luclin spell changes cropped up some bugs.

The necro heal over time line in classic shouldn't have its recourse effect on the caster as a dispellable effect.

Should be a quick fix.

this gets fixed late vel...

deal with it

they should be fixing bards imho

same with the items that were known bugged or not "suppose to be" that got fixed, removed here like the call of bones cleric mask... developers are doing the right thing leaving stuff like this in game till its time for its due fix

again... deal with it, wont be fixed for over a year

Apparently Zyrino, who won many of the cross-server rounds of the necro best of the best, doesn't remember either. Yeah OK.

Deal with that [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

i was in fires of heaven does that mean my word is law?

again late vel confirmed get over it its not game breaking like chanter charm

[Nirgon]

I don't see where you've confirmed it. I have someone with an arguably perfect understanding of necro mechanics and someone who employed a tactic VERY specific to this issue during multiple best of the best fights provide his commentary. Sounds legit to me and he isn't unsure at all. I watched the same event.

[Nirgon]

Bump

This is goofy and should be as easy as flagging the negative self effect as not dispellable

Thx!

[p-niner]

Isnt that 2002 patch on page 1 saying that it was dispellable up until 2002? Or did I read it wrong doc?

[koros]

Nirgon, I seriously remember having the recourse icon, using that weird looking HoT effect symbol using the original UI when I played my necro way way back when. You gotta dig up some more proof on this one.

It didn't say recourse, of course (that was Luclin), it just said the spells name.
