[10:25 PM]Idalias [GS4], : So with the white ora stuff…

The standard flare is a holy fire attack? Is that like what an S6 sanctify normally does? (1-100 damage with one hit plus a secondary concussion flare)

And the 25% chance to “immolate” the critter in holy fire? Is that another holy fire attack? Is that an insta-kill? I need details… this stuff sounds cool.

[10:31 PM]Zissu [GS4], : No, it's a standard fire flare, but it looks holy. Immolate is also standard immolation effects. I'm using holy fire to describe these moreso because they affect undead only.

[10:37 PM]Zissu [GS4], : Look for this line: The white fire clings to the tatterdemalion ghast, wreathing him in a seething shroud of flame!

[10:31 PM]Vivaldi: So. Adamantine plate. Extra damage via Cmans? Or extra damage when something hits me?

[10:34 PM]Zissu [GS4], : Both. Any time it flares the existing impact flare, it has a 25% chance to tack on additional damage.

[10:28 AM]Ralkean: so is the application of panic or terrify determined by the AS resolution (+160 in the example)? compatible with UCS?

[10:29 AM]Zissu [GS4], : No, there is an SSR check internal to the flare.

[10:30 AM]Zissu [GS4], : And yes to UCS compatible.

[10:30 AM]Ralkean: if SSR check fails entirely, no panic or terrify applied?

[10:31 AM]Zissu [GS4], : Correct. Similar to the witch wood MDR.

[10:59 AM]Asoma: On white ora, Is the hallowed resolve buff similar to ensorcell? eg. Procs with a cooldown, then is consumed next swing/cast. Will it be consumed if the target is not undead?

[11:00 AM]Zissu [GS4], : It will not. Only consumed when it applies.
