I am fairly sure this is not how any of this is supposed to work....
Ruined Temple, Third Floor]
Yellowed parchments peek out from underneath a collapsed column and the cabinet that once held them has been smashed to pieces. A decorative urn has had a large chunk punched out of its body, bleeding fine-grained sand onto the floor. A gaping hole in the eastern wall looks out onto the endless blue-grey sea. You also see a siren, the Archales coffin, a Grimswarm orc ranger that appears dead, a Grimswarm orc witch that appears stunned, a Grimswarm orc sorcerer that appears dead, a Grimswarm orc sorcerer that appears dead, a billowing misty grey scorpion, a spectral triton defender that is lying down and a triton executioner that appears dead.

In case the problem isn't as obvious as I think it is. My 1025 has a normal AS of 522, I was not injured at the time and had not nerve or head scars, you an see the AS from my 1025 dropping as it gets hit by 716 pestilence flares. I have complained pretty consistently about spells like wall of thorns and cloak of shadows injuring or dispelling 1025, it is not supposed to be affected my magic or attacks, which is the reasoning behind why it doesn't benefit from our own songs' AS boosts. Beyond the unfair standard of our 1025 being able to be destroyed with magic, but not helped, is the fact that when my 1025 shattered this time, it stripped almost every last one of my spells offensive and defensive, which got me pretty banged up in the Temple.
In closing I would love it if someone could please look into this post haste, many thanks in advance,
Archales

Pestilence (716) should no longer trigger against animated weapons (1025). Thanks for reporting the issue.

[Warcamp, Outside]
The well-worn path runs between the makeshift wall of broken trees and brush and a number of ramshackle huts. A pile of discarded clothes sits beneath a rack with an unidentifiable skin stretched taunt for drying. A break in the huts reveals the warcamp center directly to the east, while the worn path continues to the northeast and southeast. The aroma of cooked flesh floats in from the west. You also see a Grimswarm orc scout.
