These are all over the place. Figured I'd condense them. Cheers!
(Note: Corrected bugs will be in Green & Italic.)

Pets:

Water does not regen faster than other pets.

]Air does not seem to have increased avoidance (should be similar to monk).

Water is not extremely resistant to Poison.

Fire is not extremely resistant to fire.

Earth is not extremely resistant to disease.

Air is not extremely resistant to cold.

Pets lvl 24+ should dual wield when given weapons, at lvl 39 they should dual wield without weapons.

Pets do not dual wield until lvl 49. (they only double attack with primary weapon)

Air stun, fire DD, and water DD seem to be a proc, not a casted spell.

Pet spells from 39 onwards should have 30 hp/tick regen. Currently they only have 6(Added: November 9th, 2009)

Level 44 Fire Pet hits for less damage than other level 44 pets.

Spells:

Magicians did not have pet heals until 2/17/2000.
All Phantom Armor lines (except Phantom Leather) do not increase regen. (Note: They should not regen pre-Kunark. PENDING: November 16, 2009
Some Damage shields (Shield of Flame, level 20) don't seem to work.
Summoned: Sword of Runes does not proc on every type of mob when being wielded by a pet. It should. (Should only proc on summoned mobs when wielded by a PC)
Lvl 4 Spell Burn should be 14 mana to cast, not 7. (Added: November 17, 2009)

Abilities:

Research skill should be limited to (level -15)*5

That's all I can remember at the moment. Will add to this thread as they show up.

29 ds is broken as well.

Since some of us magicians have been able to train research unrestricted by level all the way to maximum on our server, I would recommend that the skill not be restricted per level at this point. Doing so would give current max research magicians an unfair advantage over other magicians.

Yep Damage shield doesn't work... some mage cast Inferno Shield on me, and it didn't do a thing.

Phantom armor? Checking, but I don't think those were classic.

Goobles · #6 11-09-2009, 02:54 AM

Do away with it, but fix our other issues in the process plz.

Yah I played a mage during Classic, and I don't believe the Phantom Armor mana regen bonus came until post-Luclin. Will research this a bit more.

Phantom armor is a buff-line that increases the HP REGEN of the magician. I think you may be thinking about the "Summoned: Phantom Plate/Leather/Chain" spell that was available during the Luclin Era. Similarly named, but very different effects.

Sorry for any confusion. I'll be more specific in the future. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

You guys were given pet heals on this server???
That explains a bunch

The phantom armor line was in classic but it did not give regen at all. It was added because mages complained about how useless it was compared to the shieldskin/rune line of other int casters.

Also, the summoned magical items did not have clicky effects (gaze, dispel magic, etc.)
