Message: Screech is not implemented.

This is a long standing EQEmu problem system wide.

Resurrecting this thread...according to mackal over at the EQEmu, Screech is implemented. Since this feedback thread started almost 12 years ago, I assume that it got implemented some time between now and then. I clicked on Woven Order Sash (item# 10640) and did not get a red message.

What I did notice is that my MQ2ItemInfo listed one of the effects of the clicky spell (Form of Defense VII) as slot6:Immunity. When I looked up the clicky spell in our Allaclone, it says slot6:Screech. Since I did not know what either of those did, I asked in the EQEmu Discord server and looked at the Live Allaclone. After some questioning, it seems that both names are correct...its Live name is called Screech Immunity. Essentially, you cast Screech on yourself so that it will have a blocking effect against a mob casting Screech on you. The detrimental effect Screech is a DD/knockback/stun spell thrown at you by owlbears, which were were introduced in Shadows of Luclin.

I don't know if Lillu has added this to other mobs as well. But if he has, then a Form of Defense clicky is something to get. The buff is listed as 36 mins, but when my sk casts it, its 1 hr.

Highest version of that spell is Form of Defense VIII.

I highly doubt it's used to block an NPC effect, it was just used to limit buff stacking from the "form of" spells. so you couldn't have the AC form, the HP form and the resist form on at once.

Thats what they said over at EQEmu...they know a lot more than me.

I was speaking more to THF, not live. That is probably how live used it
