Mgs/EH absorbing all magic damage (in General)


Sacredpeanut June 22 2008 5:45 AM EDT

Patty (a minion on Frantic Feeda), is using a MgS +30 and an EH +32 and is reducing some serious magic damage. In some cases Patty isn't taking any magic damage at all. I've read through the changelog but can't see any changes that would explain the following battle results. Am I missing something?

I use a mage shield/EH combo myself and it's pretty damn effective.

But I, even with a ToE involved never see 'no damage' on my guy. I've just attacked you, with my 3.2 million level CoC. You're reducing a hell of a lot of damage on that minion...

The Hawk Of May's Cone of Cold hit Tiddles [599193], Mildred [458712], Mildred's familiar [669185], Hermes [370774], Patty [128188]

But you've got PL on that guy...I'm going to shift my team around and see if I can replicate what you're seeing...

QBJohnnywas June 22 2008 5:53 AM EDT

Nope; not seeing it at all, with a +40 named Mage Shield and a +37 EH AND a ToE.

Guess you're lucky!

Against 'Toast' this is what I see on my play by play:

Butter takes damage from his own Fireball (13409)!
Butter's Fireball hit Mist Amongst The Trees [20617], The Hawk Of May [24921], Dark Mountains [5006], The Standing Stones [5747]
Dark Mountains absorbs damage [20617]
Dark Mountains absorbs damage [24921]
Dark Mountains absorbs damage [5747]


You're reducing more than me.....

It may be something to do with encumbrance not working correctly because the minion in question is severely encumbered at around 0.75.

Admindudemus [jabberwocky] June 22 2008 10:13 PM EDT

is this still an issue?

Well apparently it was something about how ENC works with DD so probably not a huge issue.
