can't dispel mentals anymore

Postby irta » Wed Nov 12, 2003 5:34 am

I'm not sure if this is a feature or a bug, but mentals are violent now when you dispel them. Elementals just want to go home, not sure why they'd get violent (I'll just send them to their deaths instead, but this is just a nuisance.)

A air elemental says 'I have 432 (432) hits, and 173 (1) movement points.'

Your blood freezes as you hear the rattling death cry of A air elemental.
With a gentle swooshing sound, the air elemental simply dissapears.

Nods I do that too ... my triggers reps me and consents me it also tells me what time they were created (old throwback to GOOD mentals 6 years ago) ... often times tho they still go aggro when you dispel them ... again no biggie, they die fast enough

did have one kill me once .. believe was a fire mental :P i was low as hell on hps .. pet died ... created another, consented, repped, timed, .. on creation it aggroed me and killed me :)

Annoyed elemental leads to death of young elementalist

Postby Guw » Wed Nov 12, 2003 7:40 pm

Made the mistake with my lil elementalist of not dispelling air pet before renting.

When i logged back on shortly afterwards it was there to greet me, quite annoyed I had left it on prime.

I start throwing spells at it, it hits me a couple times to small wounds so autowimpy kicks in and I flee into DK gate guards, which then helpfully assist the tracking pet, resulting in a quick death.

How embarrassing :)

Wish i had the log.

You'd think a lvl 49 elementalist would know this. :P

From the log it appears that Irta did not have the elemental consent first. Should always do that.

Try dispeling a ghost some time. They have high MR.

You're on your own. :P
