Spells: Rapture resisting rock golems in the hole.

[eisley]

no clue wwhy, but rapture and dictate are actually -1000 resist adjust magic bassed spells, not Unresistable.. so mobs set to stupid high MR can, and do, still resist.

[elwing]

are some spells really "unresistable"? I was thinking that "unresistable" spells just had -1000 resist check...

Some mobs, like the level 54 Rock Golem from The Hole, are set to be "Unmezzable"

There is a huge difference between a -1000 resist check and an unresistable spell. Rapture, like Dictate, are not unresistable. I will use the tashan line of enchanter spells to help you understand.

Level 54 golems in the hole are immune to magic. which is why tash lands on them but rapture will not. only a spell that is "unresistable" will land on a mob like this and rapture is not. it could have a -10,000mr check and still not land.

Basically the -1000mr check means it will land almost every time on any mob not flagged as immune to magic or unmezzable. but if they have one of these flags it wont.

The issue though is that research is for the POP+ resist system

The source is out of era and irrelevant anyways.

I played a level 60 enchanter on live in the hole often. And we usually always bring a level 53 or level 54 player to "con" the golems.

I clearly remember the level 54 golems are unmezable and have to be tanked. Back on live we assumed that they were "giant" tagged and cannot be mezed. Since we have no problem slow or even root them. Only way we can explain that they cannot be mezed is the highest level golem have the "giant" tag.
