Spells: Reoccurring Amnesia Broken

Any idea what this means?

If evidence can't be found to support it being 25%, it'd be better to have a 1% chance for 4 ticks until evidence is found supporting 25% instead of the version we have now.

I looked at that 'Duration Formula: 7' and it just seemed to be some kind of flag in the data to allow the spell to tick. Saw similar things on Fear SPDAT and other dots if I recall.

As it stands there is at least a mention in the lucy data that in March 2002 it was changed from 1% to 20%+, so you would absolutely need some definitive proof for a 25% calc.

Also, keep in mind I'm no dev, entirely possible the nilbog will not be convinced this spell ever worked properly in era, so you are at his mercy.

Bump. In case a dev missed it in the 3 pages of discussion afterwords, the post with the evidence to support this change was on Page 3.

Unsure if relevant but it seems this spell was broken for quite some time

3) Mem blur effects : One of the classic enchanter abilities and now
rendered useless as the one high level zone where it could be used to good
effect (Plane of Sky) the spells are uncastable. Reocurring Amnesia (Even
though it was pathced a week ago) STILL doesnt do more than one memory blur
pulse. I can punch a snake for 1 damage, cast Reoc on it and it stops
attacking just like with mem blur. I immediately hit the snake again for 1
point and it never gets blurred again!!! The spelll lasts for 30 seconds
yet only does 1 actual memory blurring pulse!

Forgot about this thread. I think Rygar posted that quote a few years ago. It's relevant and reinforces that it was broken from launch until sometime late 2000-January 2001. I don't disagree with that, but the combination of multiple people saying it was fixed in January 2001 and the lack of anyone complaining about it being broken after January 2001 make a pretty convincing case it should be 4 ticks on P99 at this stage imo.

So someone said it was fixed only 2 months after velious release. Chardok 2.0 was some time after that, I assume?

So since this spell is broken, what spell do chanters use for mem blurring at higher levels? Do they use the level 12 spell Memory Blur?

Blanket of Forgetfulness does 2 checks and has a very low resist rate. I land it on level 65 mobs more often than not. .
