I dunno, EoT confirmed sucked until Luclin when it was buffed up.
Emissary of Thule gets fixed in Kunark. The EQNecro pet guide is accurate as far as I know. Most of the hate you see on the EQNecro forums from that era is due to the Rogue/Monk pets dying really fast to aggro, and that they're arguably not upgrades compared to how amazing the level 49 warrior pet is (which quite frankly it's a fucking beast, does tons of damage and lives through aggro, probably the best pet Necros ever get ever).

Spdat is always a huge mystery, Verant patched it all the fucking time so it's hard to get an accurate spdat for an era.

Augment Death - Should be 15min duration as opposed to 6min on P99.

Uhm.. last I checked.. this spell took 200 mana.. lasts about 15 mins.. Now I heard it's a hp regen, speed buff of 50%, +35-40 str buff, and +14ac.. though I guess that would still be a bit of guessing

Vindinian DeathSpirit Necro of the 40 season
Caster's Realm 2001

Quote:
Max Duration: 15 minutes
Casting Time: 2.25 seconds
Recast Time: Instant
Actual Effects: Pet: Increased Strength (39 - 45)
Pet: Increased Attack Speed (49% - 55%)
Pet: Increased AC (10 - 12)
Description: Augment death is an upgrade to intensify dead. This spell works as a pet buffing spell and will increase your pets attack and hitting rate. This spell is necessary in order to use your pet for its full potential. This is useful in groups when you don't care if your pet is frenzy'd on.

5 MIN, By Jjams (1/28/2001)

This spell last about 15 mins, and wow it makes your pet rock!

SPELL DURATION, By Zerg sentient (1/28/2001)

The duration of this spell is 5mins.
This info was obtained by first casting it on the pet and then trying to cast Intensify Death (a lower level spell from same line). I was unable to for 5mins.
Splurt - Should deal 1600ish damage not 1500ish. I'm assuming the correct formula is what's on Live currently: start at 11, increase by 12 per tick for the next 15 ticks (total of 16 ticks, 96s duration). Total damage of 1616.

EQ Caster's Realm 2001

Quote:
1 minute 36 seconds
Casting Time: 4 seconds
Recast Time: Instant
Actual Effects: Target: Damage Over Time (Unknown)
Description: This spell does an increasing amount of damage the longer it is on the target. It appears to max out doing around 1600 hp damage against NPC's over the 96 second period. Around 1100 against players.

was in deep in Skyshrine fighting wyverns, and we pulled the 62+ giant jello cube.. forgot name and this spell was resisted 3 times in a row.. on the 4 th time it went thru and lasted longer than 1 min ... must have been at least 2 minutes (took 5 to 7 minutes to kill that jello mob); high MR mobs in skfire resist this spell once in a while too. as for dmg over time, 1600 + is the consensus, btw i use this spell a lot and the only time its wore off on the mob was against the 62+ jello cube =)
Quote:
This spell does rougly 1600 to 1800 no more no less
This Everlore link also has some retarded posts though...

Yes I know most of these have been posted elsewhere but I figured it's worth combining into a single post.

What's contained in he spdat files? How can we have spell information that's still wrong if we're working off these? Am I not understanding what these are exactly?

This is a fantastic question, something I still don't quite understand.

I'm guessing they aren't using the identical file, but instead something rebuilt based on those files. Since I'm guessing the syntax for spell coding changed from Classic client to the titanium based one we have here. Because so many more variables were added to spells later on.

But there are certainly still spells that aren't classic here.

Yeah I remember all the EoT hate in Velious. People on my server bitching about necros soloing with EoT in Seb after pet was buffed.

Bump. See: http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...6&postcount=48

Splurt and Augment Death fixes would be nice before next patch goes live.

Believe it was on the Necro boards I linked in the original post in this thread. Where some people are talking about how bad EoT damage is.

But it's been awhile and I'd need to double check to be certain.

Since we are talking necro spells timeline i'll just leave this here. Did not see anyone mention it above.

Addition of fear immunity to EoT:

** Spell Changes **

- Changed all enchanter mesmerization spells so that they overwrite
Screaming Terror

- Changed Shaman epic effect (Curse of the Spirits) so that it would
not conflict with certain Damage over Time spells.

- The Emissary of Thule Necromancer pet is now immune to fear
