24475, Reanimate with embalmed player bodyparts doesn't factor level
Posted by Tamazin on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Expected: player bodyparts would respect their level like mobs for the new reanimate calculation.

Actual: it seems like all embalmed player bodyparts are counted as low (possibly minimum?) level regardless of source. All below examples are cast at level 51 from hero level sources unless stated otherwise.

You hurl the embalmed arm of Ellania at Nyandrah, willing it to strangle her!
Your choking hand grazes Nyandrah.

The embalmed guts of Tomias leaps from your hand, constricting Grivs's neck!
Your strangulation injures Grivs.

You hurl the embalmed head of Mrekresh at Uthiln, and it unleashes a ghastly, piercing scream!
Your wailing spirit decimates Uthiln!

You hurl the embalmed arm of Grivs at Senna, willing it to strangle her!
Your choking hand hits Senna.

Level 48 player (maybe 46, something like that):
You hurl the embalmed head of Qilnu at Qilnu, and it unleashes a ghastly, piercing scream!
Your wailing spirit hits Qilnu.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Kill unfortunate hero level player until a reanimateable bodypart is produced.
2. Embalm it.
3. Reanimate it at target.

Repro rate: lots of times, I just kept forgetting to post this.

Big thanks for the format of your post + details, helps a lot.

See code-changes board for more info - but the issue you pointed to played into a few things. I fixed up all of those, this included.
