Hiho b:bye

Is it just me or isn't the dmg of Mystic's "Absorb Soul" Skill properly shown?
I mean: sometimes I cast the skill and over the mobs head is no dmg, but it suffers like 2 k for example...and my damage-list (chat->damage) never shows this dmg :o...Anyone else having detected this yet? ^_^

Ty for answers :) b:thanks

    Seems to just be a chatlog bug. My love noticed this as well on her mystic.

    There's a recent topic about Absorb Soul's oddities in the Mystic forum. This is not the only weird thing in this skill, and the fact that some mobs resist it or that the damage don't show in damage log isn't a glitch, it's meant to be this way.

    Absorb soul is an odd one.

    It pierces through physical resistance, Psychic shields (Soul of Retaliation) and defense levels. It also does more damage to the target if they have low magic resistance, even though the skill claims to be a physical damage skill. From what I've seen, the damage also doesn't vary; it's consistent. Even if you air-to-ground, the damage remains constant.

    The damage from absorb soul is pretty similar to a bleed DoT that only ticks once. DoTs never crit and never show in the damage log.

    AS does show the damage above the enemy's head, but you have to look for it immediatly after its released. b:flower
