Auto saved.

<Diet Dr Von Peppers (Wsay) >: ...what.
<Diet Dr Von Peppers (Wsay) >: Soul fracture, WHAT.
* Diet Dr Von Peppers's Fractured Soul(3) >> Diet Dr Von Peppers --- 4 HITS -- 93 DMG (CRITICAL)

Is it a bug? Is this intentionally how Rub is going to be replaced for Evil Spirits? I don't know! I think it is a problem that I don't know.

Regardless, assuming this is intentional (which it's pretty cool if it is) there's a few problems:

1) It did not show an icon. It just had a number next to it, but no icon.

2) The player was unable to cast anything on it. This may be intentional, which I don't know the details, but nothing could be cast on the Fractured Soul, including Scan. If this is intentional, then its Evasion Speed may be a bit much - the player spent over thirty turns attacking it with Boost 3 and only got in about 2,000 damage.

3) After killing the Fractured Soul, the Fracture debuff remained afterward.

Since you weren't on MSN at the time this was discovered, I decided to post it here. Also, I would like to request that all minor updates along the lines of this (such as the Gigasaur/Geyzer HP change, and minor tweaks like that) be at least posted on this subforum. I hate seeing weird things happen and not know if it was intentional or not.

I have not tested recently, but I did an update about two days ago that the initial plan was to fix that. So, if those problems occured before that, then they are probably fixed. If not, I will be looking into it again.

[Sur Realis]

It happened yesterday; I posted immediately upon the battle being finished and the logs being collected.

[Kija]

I did a test, and everything worked. So, it must have been right before the reboot.

[Sur Realis]

Are there any other recent minor changes that I should probably know about?

[Kija]

That should be the only one at the moment.

Diet Dr Von Peppers(Tell): * Diet Dr Von Peppers's Fractured Soul(3) >> Diet Dr Von Peppers --- 4 HITS -- 25 DMG
* Diet Dr Von Peppers - Ice 3 >> Diet Dr Von Peppers's Fractured Soul(3) --- 329 DMG.
* Diet Dr Von Peppers's Fractured Soul(3) >> Diet Dr Von Peppers --- 6 HITS -- 36 DMG
* Diet Dr Von Peppers - Ice 3 >> Diet Dr Von Peppers's Fractured Soul(3) --- 333 DMG.

Fractured Souls can be targeted by area attacks. Known for Ice and Darkfire, probable with Status spells unless a resistance is built in for those.

[Kija]

I am confused on what the problem is.

Oh, by the way, just to spite Button and Joker, Magora should include a Psychostorm that Dispell 3s, Paras, Sleeps, Weak 1s, Slow 1s, and Lock 1s all players, and has a 50% chance to Demi them. It should be used only on the first turn, to keep things semi-fair. Or it can be the equivalent to Geyzer's Blizzard, just to spite Button even more.

<Serene Magick (Wsay) >: And Magora..
<Serene Magick (Wsay) >: When her rub is taken.
<Serene Magick (Wsay) >: I don't even want to know what the hell he's giving her.
<Serene Magick (Wsay) >: Hell, probably a Psychostorm that you can't resist.
<Serene Magick (Wsay) >: That debuffs like mad crazy.
<Diet Dr Von Peppers (Wsay) >: Eight Mage party, and a shitload of buffs and osmose.
<Serene Magick (Wsay) >: It'll probably dispell 3, Para, sleep, weak 1, lock 1, slow 1.
<Serene Magick (Wsay) >: And demi with a 50% chance for lulz.
