Slayer bug

Slayer is not affecting Holy light damage. At least there is no notable change in damage amount nor does the white slayer indication go off.

Probably missed it in the slaying category as we concentrated on magery and necromancy mostly but you're right, that should be considered.

yeah doing 10-12 dmg on anything worth anything and not being able to get slayer bnus is the suck. While you at it can you tell me if SDI is even affecting it? I mean I have 49 SDI on my chivver and 120 Chiv with max karma but the SDI never seemed to change the damage on it.

SDI and Slayer don't normally affect holy light, so no, it was likely missed when we added that change to AOV.

Why would "Spell Damage Increase" not increase the damage of a damage spell? That makes no sense.

So just so I'm clear, are you going to make slayer affect holy light?
And Are you going to make SDI affect holy light(SDI not affecting a damage spell doesn't make much sense)?

By definition, SDI is only supposed to affect direct damaging spells, not area spells. However, on AOV we decided to allow it to have an impact on area spells as well.

So just so I'm clear, are you going to make slayer affect holy light?:
I don't see a reason why not as the other area spells are affected, so yes, we can do that.

Are you going to make SDI affect holy light(SDI not affecting a damage spell doesn't make much sense)?
Same as above, provided SDI is already affecting the other area spells (Which I believe it is).

Many changes are being saved for the revamp project as there's currently a replacement barrier in place (Because the new shard will work in a very different way as far as core scripts go, it's not wise to update to live while the architecture is being revised). Depending on the script changes, it may take some time before changes hit live.
