BOT - overall this spell seems impossible to cast without being in a room alone. Spell is ineffective and pointless as it stands if it is working as intended.

Yeah, I've noticed that as well. I was in a room with a thief that is some 75 circles below me, and it fizzled. he walked out, and boom, no problem. No luck either when trying to cast it with critters there.
I imagine it all has to do with warding ranks...but the thief contest just felt really off.

>>Is your spell stance set for integrity? That is what is used to get through people's resistance.
Doesn't integrity just determine if the spell is taken apart via wards/dispels/etc, as opposed to just failing a Stat vs Stat contest? I thought that's based on potency.
The teeth lands a solid (5/23) hit that pokes the teeth into Turul's rear end (more embarrassing than painful!).

Thanks Raesh -

You gesture.
You contribute your harnessed streams to increase the pattern's potential.

[Ice Caves, Cavern's Heart]
Torches are set up in a circle around a gaping chasm that opens in the hard frozen stone of the cavern's floor. At the north edge of the void, an iron altar stained with dried blood stands flanked by two large silver braziers. Light from the fires fill the surrounding cavern and flicker in a light breeze that constantly rises from the chasm. You also see a plain deobar strongbox, a black cloak, an Adan'f shadow mage which appears dead and some junk.
Obvious exits: north, northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest, west, northwest.

I'm having a similar issue, using 40 prep casts with 130% in potency/integrity with a circle 12 Thief in the room results in fizzles.
>>I was in a room with a thief that is some 75 circles below me, and it fizzled.
Oh my Thief is WAY more than 75 circles lower than you Belea. I'd imagine probably 90. As a side note, I didn't actually steal from you. I was just wrapping up a stealing run, passed by you, and slipped a few coins in your pocket compliments of the Human juggler outside the Trader's guild tower. I thought it was curious your HOJ actually closed my stealing ability considering I'd only stolen from NPCs / Shops. I'd always presumed the spell would only work on someone who'd stolen from a player, but clearly any stealing at all will suffice.

When naming your holy weapon consider the following: Everyone has a Holy Avenger or a Divine Vengeance. Why not go with something your foes will never accept the shame of being smote by, "The Fuzzy Kitten".

>>Reverted the HoW cyclic thing.
Can you elaborate when you get a moment, please? I'm having issues casting this that I wasn't having yesterday. Yesterday I was prepping at 15 and able to cast right away. Now if I do that I get the message that I'm lacking the skill to complete. If I wait to 10 seconds, I backfire. I can cast at 15 mana if I 'fully prep' at 20 seconds. Just wondering if that's intended.
Primary Magic: 649
Warding: 455
Thanks!

A gestalt draugen swipes a hooked leonine claw at Silus. The claw lands a solid hit that cuts deeply into his groin!

Totally unrelated. Soon after 3.0 launched there were some technical changes to how cyclics worked that were implemented for Bards, Paladins, Empaths and Moon Mages. These ended up being A Bad Idea (tm) and caused quite a few headaches.
