Lifetap emotes

[Tyler]

make my custom dots harder to resist (http://clone.thehiddenforest.org/spell.php?id=8541) has a hard time landing even on trash much less bosses (FYI i havnt landed on a T3+ boss to date)

Resist will be -75 now (instead of -10). Will go Live once we move the server this weekend.

Please people make a seperate thread if you have issues with your Chaotic Spells. They are hard to get so should be good!

Sharp Blade for ST raiders, been so long I can't remember the other one. Unfortunately though I don't have a lifetap aug myself since my melee character is an alt so I wouldn't be able to test for you.

Not sure what exactly you meant by Runic, but Runic spell seems to be basically the same as a rune spell which is a lot of aggro. I'm talking about synthesizing a lifetap (for instance Life Sap IV) spell with a custom spell so that there is no emote attached to it, thus reducing the amount of spam during raids where there can be up to 8-10 of those weapons being used at one time even in a small raid.

1 : Effect type : Increase Absorb Damage by 20 (L) to 100 (L70)
2 : Effect type : Increase HP when cast by 80

Thats Runnic

1 : Effect type : Decrease HP when Cast by by 100
2 : Effect type : Increase HP when cast by 100

That would be my spell. I was just using Runic as refernce. And for the ST aug - that's too specific, only a small group of players on this server has even access to it, let alone completed the stuff.

I'd rather take a more "available" aug. If we don't have one, i'll gladly change that one.

There aren't any other Lifetap augs I don't think Tyler. As far as I know, all other aug procs are straight up + DD like chaotic poison, chaotic strike etc. That's the main reason that this hasn't been an issue in the past...the augs weren't there

Plus, Progeny will have those ST augs soon enough too (if they don't already), so it's not as small a group as you think!

[Tyler]

Ok - i created a new spell and applied it to the aug. It casts 350 dd and heals for 200 with a recourse effect!

[Tyler]

To add - you need a new spellfile, i just re-uploaded the nov, 4th spellfile, which includes these new spells. We reload later today i think.

Oh well, I thought one of the Ssra weapon augs was a life tap aug, but I just did a bunch of searching and you're right Jeido, Sharp Blade is the only one and thus I guess it's not such a big deal as I thought - 90% of the server will never reach tier 3. I can just keep doing what I have.

[Lillu]

90% of the server will never reach tier 3.

I truly hope this wont be the case, else we have to rethink the whole progression difficulty and retune the server..

[Koeril]

I said 90% which includes people (not characters) those who come, stay for a few levels, and then leave. Seriously, how many people are in Evo and Prog which are the only two raiding guilds - maybe 30 at most. I'd say it wouldn't be unreasonable that 270 people have come to the server and never seen tier 3.

I've been seeing a LOT of people going through the intro script with QA, maybe even a few an hour as I'm AFK in THF.
