Infusion (and its sanity-blasting quest) is still around. I don't know if abilities got wiped at any point.

I don't think the steps for Resurrection are actually different now, beyond it being a cyclic spell now: https://elanthipedia.play.net/mediawiki/index.php/Resurrection

Tenike wrote up a great step by step how-to for resurrection. He's also got guides to other clerical matters.

I just did the infusion quest. It was insane. The Shield of Light platform didn't work with infusion after I read the grimoire. I had to jump into the abyss and was crushed by about 5 bone golems. But at least I finished the quest!

The platform does still work as of a few weeks ago, when I last ran a Cleric through it. I don't know the syntax though.

The platform worked for me when I did the quest about a month ago. I had to take off my arm worn shield to be able to infuse SOL and it create a platform.

I probably had the wrong syntax/mechanics then. I pasted my logs below. I removed the shield about half way through.

Infusion is a magical Cleric ability. It has several different applications:

INFUSE INTEGRITY <# of mana> - Fortifies the patterns of the spells on you against dispels.

INFUSE MEMORY <# of spirit> - Rejuvenates yourself when dead, relying upon spirit energy instead of mana.

Certain spells may also be receptive to direct infusion for some special effects:
INFUSE <spell abbreviation> <# of mana>

[Above the Abyss, Crystalline Dais]
A platform of translucent crystal hovers steadily over the night-black abyss below, surely by way of some strange enchantment. Long silver sconces rise from the floor all around, each capped with a bleached white skull of a different race. Fire burns within each skull, casting a morbid glow over a massive onyx altar that emerges almost seamlessly from the crystal below.
You also see a spiritual bridge extending over the abyss and a recessed basalt slab.
Obvious exits: none.

You jump foolishly into the great black abyss!

Note that you removed the shield but you didn't stow it in a container or wear it, so you were still holding it in your hand, which means the SOL spell simply boosted your shield skill rather than creating a shield of it's own which is probably the deciding factor.

Could be, but the SOL was created on my arm?

That is the message indicating you are holding/wearing a shield and that the Shield of Light spell is simply boosting your shield skill, rather than creating a shield.
