Please post here if you would see an 'missing database strings' on spell descriptions.
(make sure you have our latest custom THF spell_us.txt and dbstr_us.txt files before posting)
Post exact spell names please. Make a suggestion for the spell description if you're in a creative mood.

Following items say "Unknown DB string"
Grotesque Girdle ends with the numbers 10704-6
Frozen Ritualchanter's Leggings ends with 9974-6

this is all ive found so far not seen anything on casted spells yet

Spell has no discription at all in game:
Spell: Godly Conversion I

fixed with tomorrow reboot and new custom files.
(Godly Conversion rank II, III and to IV too)

A couple level 70 Beastlord spells have no spell description:

Call of the Beastmaster
Wild Cat 1

Ranger Spell Empowering Water I , has a spell description in game of..

Spell Effect: Mends severe wounds, healing between 0 and 0 hit points.

This is a group spell, and I've heard in a chat in ooc about it that the serverside spell file refers to it as a buff that raises minimum damage. I use titanium.


EDIT - found short discussion http://www.thehiddenforest.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=4684&p=28892&hilit=empowering+w#p28892 , but it doesn't satisfy me.

Empowering Waters I - http://www.thehiddenforest.org/webtools/spells.php?id=8919 .. it shows some hp gained(per tic?), and raising min dmg in this description.

Typo in armor of the orc destroyer.

You begin casting Armor of the Orc Destroyer.
Kaelee has healed you for 650 points of damage.
Your armor glows with the strength of the Occ.

Could be wrong but thinks its supposed to say Orc.

Currently Necro spell Death Stalker's description states that it heals group for 1000/tick, It is currently doing 550.

Wizard spells, ahoy! In no particular order...

Frost Bolt: Spell's damage is incorrectly stated as "between 14 and 14".
Suggested Description: Change damage numbers to "between 8 and 14."
NOTES: It seems a LOT of wizard spells suffer from this issue, particularly single-target cold DDs. I'm taking the numbers directly off the 'clone; I hope I'm reading it right.

Numbing Cold: Spell's damage is incorrectly stated, and the stun element is not listed.
Suggested description: "Covers nearby creatures in numbing cold, causing between 14 and 25 damage and stunning them momentarily."

Frost Spiral of Al'Kabor: Spell's damage is incorrectly stated.
Suggested description: Change damage numbers to "between 50 and 90"

Shock of Ice: Spell's damage is incorrectly stated.
Suggested description: "Covers your target in a thin layer of ice, causing between 50 and 120 damage and stunning them momentarily."

Frost Shock: Spell's damage is incorrectly stated, stun effect not listed.
Suggested description: "Surrounds your target in frost, causing between 275 and 500 damage and stunning them momentarily."

Ice Shock: Spell's damage is incorrectly stated, stun effect not listed.
Suggested description: "Covers your target in a thick layer of ice, causing between 160 and 650 damage and stunning them momentarily."

Ice Comet: Damage is incorrectly stated.
Suggested description: Change damage numbers to "between 700 and 808"

Frost Storm: Spell's damage states "between 250 and 250 damage." This is redundant.
Suggested description: Change damage numbers to simply "causing 250 damage"

Blast of Cold: Spell's damage is incorrectly stated, and the stun effect is not listed.
Suggested Description: "Covers your target in a thin layer of frost, causing between 30 and 50 damage and stunning them momentarily."

Column of Frost: Damage is incorrectly stated as "between 32 and 45"
Suggested description: Change damage numbers to "between 20 and 45"

Sorcerer's Familiar: Spell has no description at all.
Suggested Description: Summons a beholder familiar that grants you increased resistances and the ability to percieve normally invisible creatures. This spell will also increase mana regeneration, mana pool, and reduce fizzle rates.

Maelstrom of Power I: Spell's description is incorrect, stating "Strikes your target with the power of thunder, causing 0 damage every 6 seconds for 0:00:12"
Suggested Description: This is a cold resist spell doing 2500 damage, no variation. Description should read, "Strikes your target with the power of a frigid storm, causing 2500."
NOTES: Spell is possibly mis-named? Kinda odd for it to use the name "Maelstrom of Power" for an ice-element spell, but according to the alla clone, it's definitely resisted by cold and uses the icon for an ice-based DD.

Mana Flare III: Spell's description states that it is cast upon your target. This is incorrect; it is casted on yourself.
Suggested Description: "Places an aura of mana upon you. This mana will often entwine with the energy of a direct damage spell and cause extra damage to the spell's target.

Translocate: Undershore: The word "undershore" in the spell description should be capitalized.

Ether Ward: Description makes no mention of the Peridot needed to cast this spell.
Suggested Description: Add the sentence "This spell consumes a peridot when cast" to the spell description, in line with other spells of the type.

Wow, okay... that was a lot of writing. Should be enough to get you started. If you want more, just say so. If there's certain things that I shouldn't bother with, let me know. I'm always in favor of more accurate spell descriptions.

Awesome, thank you! This is great help. Please keep submiting any missing custom spell description/correction.
