19952, phoenix brand and new resistance code
Posted by Taialeo on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
I can't say conclusively, but it looks like there might be some weirdness going on between phoenix brand, vuln_light and duergar NPCs.

It used to be you couldn't brand duergar at all because they were already vuln_light and vuln_holy. Now you can, but it doesn't seem to actually increase the damage they take. I branded two duergar mobs (sun sigil) and my melee damage from a "brilliant radiance" attack weapon didn't seem to increase any.
19955, This should be fixed now

Duergars were vulnerable to lightning instead of light until the most recent reboot.
