Bane/Smite, Deity alignment, and all that jazz.

[Shari]

So, my cleric is an Ivas follower. But when I prep 302 it says its prepping for bane.

However, on my cast hand window it says smite.

WTF am I really casting?

I'd like her to smite and since she's following and "evil" god, shouldn't she smite?

And...does anyone have the list of which gods give which spell, and how well they work against living/undead?

[Kitsun]

You're casting Bane, the way they coded it is just flat. So it'll just say smite. Don't sweat it.

Generally good is smite, evil is bane. The exception is like Charl that banes.

[Sean]

convert list... the top is smite the bottom is bane. And if your using it cross cast IE: your bane and using it on undead its damage is basically 1/2 and the mana cost is 2x (or 4 mana for a non infused cast).

[Ryenn]

I believe also that Fash'lo'nae yields smite, which would be an exception for the Lornon gods.

[Himmy]

When the system for bane/smite was first implemented, didn't the lesser arkati give various ratios of damage to living/dead? For instance if you followed Arachne then you would do a little more damage to dead things than someone following Ivas. Does that make sense? And, if so... Am I anywhere near correct or am I at the wrong ballpark?

[Burnt out Priestess]

I do more damage to living as an Arachne follower then i do dead things.

[Stunseed]

Zelia does more damage to undead than living, but still messes up both. ;)

[cajunlady]

bane is purplish in color and smite is blue... Ivas follower would be bane casting. Should cost you 2 mana per cast to go against the living, and 4 against undead. Reverse is true if you were to cast smite.
I'm not sure about the damage difference between smite/bane since they changed the mechanics to 302 when they brought Divine Fury in. I have trouble hitting the living with 302, but I don't know if it is because I have smite, or maybe my CS isn't as high as it needs to be, or maybe any cleric has the same trouble. When I can't ward, I use 317(Fury) or 111(Fire).
Both Bane and Smite have the chance to instantly charbroil the foe.

[Jayvn]

Do we have a post somewhere of all the different 319's? I can put up Jastev's and I've seen Arachne's with her spiderweb slinging

What clerical spell (follower of Ivas) is emerald?

Ent's fiance is an Ivasian cleric. :heart:

Engaged to an Ivasian? that'll be a swingin relationship.

312 will be whatever color the casters eyes are, so emerald eyes would be an emerald cast.

Also Zenaxa, you should have the same chance to hit everything with 302/312/317.
The latter 2 just do a hell of a lot more damage than smite vs. the living (and undead [depending on your training, how you cast, and your endroll]).

Prayer 313 gives the cleric different colored eyes depending on deity selection.

Someone asked about Divine Wrath. This website shows a good number of the various deities.

the emerald spell you're seeing there is divine wrath... hits multiple baddies. Luukos also has emerald eyes.. but he has talons in wrath, I think she has leaves.

You're welcome. Jharra did a lot of the neat messaging for cleric spells. In fact, between Divine Wrath (I seldom use it...), Prayer and most importantly the messaging I get when I link a body (308) are just outstanding. I wish more PCs would select a deity and convert, it makes that process a bit more interesting for my character. She can often tailor prayers based on the "feeling" that she gets from the linking.

I agree! It does make it much more interactive for a "link". Zenaxa was a little shaky a couple weeks ago after "feeling" a dagger on her throat. It unnerved her pretty good. I whispered to the former corpse to request he reveal his deity, but he wouldn't say. Thanks to the Panarkati Festival and what I learned, I now think it might have been Onar. Neat!
Also... who has the chilling snow? Lumnis I know has snowflakes associated with her in the clerical shop in Icemule, but I don't think I have knowingly raised a fellow... hmm.. Lumnisian?

I've never written them down, so I'm not sure if I've ever seen the snowflakes. Purring is Tonis. Heat of a forge is Eonak. Autumn leaves I think was Imaera. Starry night or something starry is Ronan. Scales of some sort is Luukos. Can't remember what Arachne was, and I've seen Jastev and a few others. I'll try and post them as I find em.

I guess we could paste them here, as an aside, you can profile the person and see their deity. I know that's not IC but it does help us to learn which message is which.

I've seen the dagger, I believe that is Onar but not positive.

[Leetahkin]

Hmm, I'm curious to know what the messaging would be with Ent, as she follows Leya. I'll have to have her conveniently die to check it out :whistle:

[Czeska]

I believe snowflakes is Lorminstra. That's what Morandas told me between cackles, anyway.

If there's someone around these boards with an elder cleric that wants to test this tonight when I get home, gimme a shout. I would have had Daehlin do this, but he may not have enough ranks. So if he's around, he can be the one to kill Ent! :smilegrin:

About how many ranks of relgion lore do you need to see the messaging? Anyone have any idea?

I really don't know, I have 84 ranks....I never miss if the person is converted.

[TheRoseLady]

Well correction, I guess there is a random chance of not sensing. After relinking NC I got this for Leya

For one fleeting moment as your soul touches XXXX soul, you feel an overwhelming sense of fright and desperation. Then a wave of blissful calmness settles upon you as you sense your souls have linked together the smell of trillium flowers surrounds you briefly.

[TheRoseLady]

And for those wondering this is what I get for a default:

For one fleeting moment as your soul touches XXXX soul, you feel an overwhelming sense of fright and desperation. Then a wave of blissful calmness settles upon you as you sense your souls have linked together an odd scent drifts past, but it is impossible to place its origin.

Either person is not converted or the chance to get the sensation didn't happen.

[Leetahkin]

Trillium flowers make total sense with Leya.

[TheRoseLady]

As promised here's another link, this time from Fash'lo'nae.

If you aren't converted, pick a deity and make a cleric happy.

For one fleeting moment as your soul touches person's soul, you feel an overwhelming sense of fright and desperation. Then a wave of blissful calmness settles upon you as you sense your souls have linked together the smell of dry, ancient parchment drifts past.

[Leetahkin]

On the flipside, Ent got this when her love linked to her (tuberose?):


A silvery translucent thread extends from Daehlin encompassing you. You sense the comfort of salvation, and the smell of tuberose incense twines slowly around you.



But she got this, where I thought it would be a scent, not a taste?:


You gesture at Entress.
A silvery translucent thread extends from you encompassing Entress's corpse.
For one fleeting moment as your soul touches Entress's soul, you feel an overwhelming sense of fright and desperation. Then a wave of blissful calmness settles upon you as you sense your souls have linked together you taste something odd, but the taste is not something you can identify.

[TheRoseLady]

That taste is the default. Must be some random thing in there to signify if you'll get the convert messaging. It happened with us, where it didn't let me see your message - so I linked again.

I personally think Deity ALignment is the most awesomest thing ever, but then, my two main characters are priests. Here's some clips. My Charl worshipping priest even died, so you can see a link from a Charl aligned person (from the perspective of a Luukos aligned person).

A triad of ebony orbs cojoined by crackling ribbons of violet energy suddenly appear out of nowhere. The pulsating orbs take up a position directly in front of the black forest viper, and slowly begin to move apart, stopping when they form a triangular shape of equal height to the creature. Encasing the viper within this framework, the triangle begins to rotate with tremendous speed, binding the viper with a cocoon of energy ribbons. A blur of violet and black obscures a black forest viper from view and as mysteriously as the orbs appeared, they fade away. All that remains of the viper is a charred ashen figure of its former self lying upon the ground.


Luukos: 312/313/319

Some interesting notes: On 313 (prayer), Charl's follower invokes his deity's wrath, Luukos's follower invokes his deity's will. Odd. I suppose it makes sense given their temperments, but Charl is the Sea Judge, He has a stronger Will than anyone....

And, on a closing note: Don't pick Charl just because you want to follow a Liabo deity but want Bane, which most people seem to think is better. I hate that, and moreover, my Charl following cleric hates it more. Before I went abroad, he would take to drilling anyone who confessed to being a Charl worshipper, to see if they were genuine. Argh.

From the corner of your eye, you glimpse slight motion. Although you still can perceive sound, no sounds seem important when compared to the silence at the center of your being. The power of Gosaena has answered your prayer.

You realize that you had ceased to hear the sound of your own heartbeat only when you become aware of it again, and other sounds filter back into your awareness as well. Warmth returns to your body as your connection to Gosaena lessens.
The strain of channeling so much power leaves you feeling weakened and feeble.

Okay stupid question....is the tuberose scent for the Ivas aligned?

[Andreal]

Why do people X out CS but leave the entire formula there to figure it out?

Wasn't the messaging for 312 linked to the caster's eye color and not deity alignment?

Could be, these are the three up there:

A single dim, dark globe springs to life in your left hand.
With a flick of your left wrist, the globe dances through the air toward a black forest viper!

A dim, crystal blue aura builds around your clenched hands.
With a quick motion of your arms, two crystal blue lines blaze through the air toward a rolton!
(I know his are blue, but not sure on crystal)

A single dim, ice blue globe springs to life in your left hand.

(I know she has ice blue eyes)

So how come two are orbs and one is lines?

[Edited on 10-4-2005 by Tsunami]

[Kitsun]

Interesting. Never noticed the difference before. Maybe feature altered eyes versus stock eyes?

[Tsunami]

I know the ice blue are altered, and the crystal blue (confirmed as such now) are stock eyes from the pavilion. <shrug>

[Flurbins]

Cast 1:
You channel at a black forest ogre.
A radiant, crystal blue aura builds around your clenched hands. With a quick motion of your arms, two crystal blue lines blaze through the air toward a black forest ogre!

You glance down to see a rich-grained villswood runestaff in your right hand and a plain silver coffer in your left hand.

Cast 2:
You channel at a black forest ogre.
A single radiant, crystal blue globe springs to life in your left hand. With a flick of your left wrist, the globe dances through the air toward a black forest ogre!
You glance down to see a rich-grained villswood runestaff in your right hand and nothing in your left hand.

Two radiant, crystal blue globes spring to life in your open hands. With a quick flick of your wrists, the orbs dance through the air toward a black forest ogre!

[Kreon]

312 messaging is based on both eye color and how many hands you have free.

317 is deity-specific, but not in the messaging per se. The second or third crits are based on your deity alignment (same type as your 319 crits, I believe)

Anyone know what this one is? The girl took off before I got to ask her.

This is Lumnis, my character worships Lumnis and the cleric was Lumnis aligned as well.

[TheRoseLady]

Jaston has feathers for his Weatherby symbol....so it's possible that's the deity. You can always profile a person and see if their deity is listed.

If I convert to bane will it affect 306 as far as doing less damage on the undead and/or more damage on the living, or will it remain the same?

[Adhara]

Does anyone know the implications of choosing '999) Other' versus staying unaligned?

[Artha]

Does anyone know the implications of choosing '999) Other' versus staying unaligned?
I'm almost positive that the only effect this will have is to take away your ability to convert.
