Extended improved invisibility bug - FIXED

[Hellblazer]

Now here is the premise of this testing. I have noted that the extended improved invisibility seemed really really short compared to the description on lore. So I thought I would test it out twice in a row to make sure of what I thought.

From this picture you see I have no bonus to ac, concealment or even invisibility

Now from this one, you can see the bonus to ac, concealment and invisibility.

And lastly, from this one, you can see the bonus to ac, concealment and invisibility have all dissipated.

Here is the extracted log of the testing and comparison with extended invisibility.

Now since Tyillaan is level 12, the lore description of Improved invisibility says that the spell would last 1turn+1 round per level. Which in turn is longer than the invisibility spell that is only 1 turn per level.

This means that for Tyillaan improved invisibility should last 12turn+12 round total. In terms of minutes though this is the math to know the precise number of rounds.

12 turns*10 rounds= 120 rounds +12 rounds =132 rounds * six seconds each round =792 seconds divided by 60 seconds per minute = 13.2 minutes

Now considering that those were extended spells, the lore description page states that the duration of spells are doubled when extended. There for, her extended improved invisibility spell should have lasted 26.4 minutes.

If you refer to the screen shots taken, and extracted log, you will see that this is not what is happening. You can notice how ever that Extended invisibility is spot on as it should.

Improved invis does not last longer than regular invis. It lasts "1-turn + (1-round/level)" not "(1-turn + 1-round)/level."

So, a 12th level caster's Improved invis lasts 1-turn + 12-rounds, which is roughly equivalent to 2 minutes and 12 seconds.

Ah I see where I was in error. Maybe it could be edited to be clearer?

Thanks milt

I'm not sure how to make it clearer short of using the algebraic syntax I applied above with the parentheses, though I did edit the page to use a slash instead of the word "per" in order to visually tie the word "level" directly to "round."

[Hellblazer]

I'm sure that will help.

Uhmmmm if I remember correctly when we spoke about Keen Edge on IRC, the 1 Turn isn't added into the calculation retroactively. The calculation should probably be (1 Turn) + 1 Round per level, so if you're level 12 it should be (1 Turn) +12 rounds. Unless I'm wrong again and the calculation is different.

EDIT: BOO DM Milty beat me to it.

[Lance Stargazer]

Speaking of time zones.

He beat you for about 4 hours or 240 turns *Grins*  Must have used some kind of extra extended time travel or so to do it.

This might make it clearer:

[INDENT]Duration: 1 Round/Level + 1 Turn.[/INDENT]

Done.
