Skill Descriptions

Posts: 607 Arc User
I know the skill description for Frostblade is wrong (though adding 15-20k water damage to melee attacks would be amusing). I don't know if there are other skill description issues but we can consolidate them here.
Edit for clarity:
What it says: The skill description claims to add a percentage of the caster's magic attack to the recipient's attack (of unspecified type) as water damage.
What it actually does: add a percentage of the recipient's physical attack to their melee attacks as water damage.
The effect of the buff is similar to strength of the titans, only it adds water damage instead of physical damage.

Here are a few Demon Mystic ones:
Summons display mana costs as higher than they actually are
These are all demon versions, they're approximate due to mana regen -
Devil Chihyu: Mana cost claimed to be 1050
Mana cost is actually about 825
Storm Mistress: Mana cost claimed to be 1350
Actually 1065
Salvation: Mana cost claimed to be 1550
Actually 1178
Cragglord: Mana cost claimed to be 1950
Actually 1498
They appear to be 80% of their original values, which I think is what they were decreased to. So the true values are probably about:
Devil Chihyu - 840
Storm Mistress - 1080
Salvation - 1240
Cragglord - 1560
Decimal mana costs in Herb descriptions
Punishing Sting: Mana cost claimed to be 409.0
Befuddling Creeper: Mana cost claimed to be 350.4
Spidervine: Mana cost claimed to be 385.6
Healing Herb: Mana cost claimed to be 437.6
Round them.
Vital herb duration
Description readsVital Herb appears for 20 seconds.Vital Herb appears for 30 seconds.
Energy leech's anti-stun
Description readsCannot be interrupted by Stun or Freeze and lasts for 6 seconds.Grants immunity to Stun and Immobilize. Lasts for 6 seconds.
Falling Petals
Description reads...basic Magic Attack 9 seconds after being attacked....basic Magic Attack over 9 seconds after being attacked.
Demonic Eruption (demon triple spark)
Description readsGrants bonus damage equal to 500% of weapon damage and increases attack speed by 25% for 15 seconds.Grants bonus damage equal to 700% of weapon damage and increases Channeling Rate by 25% for 15 seconds.
Demon Rapid growth
Description readsCooldown time reduced by 10%.Channeling Rate increased by an extra 10%.
Invigorate
It doesn't state that it's PvE only
These next couple are actually errors with the skills rather than the description:
Demon Cragglord
It claims to have 25% chance to save a spark. This never happens.
Weeping Breeze Dance
It claims to reduce max hp by 8%. It is 7%.
Also, list function no worky.
And error message when editing is annoying. YAY THEY FIXED THISb:pleasedb:pleasedb:pleased0 -

You can't just say a skill is wrong.. you have to say how it's wrong and what would be the correct description. It would also be helpful to provide a screenshot that shows what it currently says.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Ast already detailed a good lot of much earlier skill description errors in this thread. It's really dated, though, so an updated one is probably better.
I know for a fact that Sharpened Tooth Arrow is still not listed as an AOE, though it is.Proving that not only archers do math since 2009. b:victory

Yataghan Vortex says it will continue untill it is cancelled or run out of chi, where it is actually running on mana, not chi..0

Well, if this is going to be a skill description mistakes thread I'll add;
Ever since Sirens of War expansion the Venomancer skill Demon Frost Scarab doesn't state it has a 95% chance to freeze the target for 3 seconds anymore.
The effect still works, it procs and it's visible but no longer included in the description.[SIGPIC]http://i.imgur.com/MtwcqjL.png[/SIGPIC]

Cleric's skills:
Sage/Demon Spirit's Gift and Sage/Demon Celestial Guardian's Seal should state that they last 60 minutes, as they actually do, instead of 30 minutes as it is depicted.
Ever since I got Sage Tempest I wondered why 1 spark being consumed (as opposed to 2 sparks) occurs much less than 30 more chi gained by Sage Wield Thunder, although both skill descriptions say their chance is 50%.
Today I started a list counting the spark consumptions of Sage Tempest and out of 15 casts only 3 took 1 spark, the last 12 consumed 2, which leads to a percentage coming closer to 25% (just like Sage Siren's Kiss which can be casted without a spark being taken if you are lucky)... Is the description wrong or the effect?
I will further keep record to see which chance it actually is.World is full of illusions.

Don't go by that old thread. There have been a ton of description changes since 2009.
Demon Frost Arrow is wrong.. it reads
Demon version has a 20% to cast without using Chi, instead gaining 35 Chi.
It only gains 25 chi not 35 chi. It should be
Demon version has a 20% to cast without using Chi, instead gaining 25 Chi.

This is just a small thing.
Sage Twin Strike has a 20% chance to gain 25% chi. I did tests.
Currently the description reads: "Has a 20% chance to increased 20 Chi."
It should read: "Has a 20% chance to gain 25 Chi."Forever overlooked.
Forever forgotten.
Forever alone.
This is a good thing. People don't notice me, and they don't notice the knife whistling towards their throat.0 -

And you are right, my part about the ranges was wrong, I'm gonna edit that.
A picture to illustrate...
For Demon/Sage Spirit's Gift the description should say:
"Increases the target's magic attack by 70% for 60 minutes,
[...]"
For Demon/Sage Celestial Guardian's Seal it should be:
"Increases the target's HP and MP regeneration by 10 per second for 60 minutes,[...]"
Whereas Demon/Sage Vanguard's Spirit and Demon/Sage Magic Shell have the right desription.World is full of illusions.

Mystical Eye lvl 100 morai skill for mystics which used to detect stealthed players within 50mtrs and after some times players with same lvl or lower lvl forced to come out of stealth is not working properly since last big update i.e Sirens of War.
At start i thought that my char is glitched but yesterday i asked a mystic frnd with the skill and she faced the same thing.
The problem is we can detect stealthed players but cant take them out of stealth,
i have tested it with my lvl 99 sin about 20 times and everytime same result and my Mystic lvl is 101.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
Dream a dream of a life so new, One brimming with potential,
Of starting again, leaving all behind, Only happiness is essential. b:victory

Currently the description reads: "Has a 20% chance to increased 20 Chi."
It should read: "Has a 20% chance to gain 25 Chi."
I think it should instead say "Has a 20% chance to gain an additional 20 chi." Sage Twin Strike by default gains 5 chi, so it would make sense that you get 25 chi when it procs.Zsw -104 Sage Assassin

In the cases where you tested this, did you have full chi?
I found the same with sage Blade Tempest and Mountain's Seize on my wizard, until I was informed that the way "has a chance to cast for 1 spark" works is by first giving you a spark then taking two. If you have full chi going in it may be procing but since you have full chi, it can't give you that spark. I now notice that it works a lot more frequently in the times where it actually has a chance to work, though honestly I haven't actually tested it.
Also, 15 is a rather small sample size, and while I totally understand the concern, it's statistically possible, albeit unlikely. Conversely, even with only a 25% of the single spark, there's still only a 3% chance of 12 consecutive 2 spark casts, which is why I ask my first question.xSonOfCircex-105/103/102 Sage Wiz

I never understood why it doesn't take the 2 sparks and simultaneously buff you with a chi over time buff to regain the 1 spark.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0

And if that is true... wouldn't it fix it if it first took the sparks and the give one back? Definitely something to consider.World is full of illusions.
