phasing for weightlessness

[oneillseanm]

Hi everyone. I've got a question for you. My Phase attempts keep failing. I've got 63 ranks of Demonology. I'm casting at "a plain iron box." This is all that happens - "The box becomes momentarily insubstantial but quickly returns to normal." Can anyone think of a reason this is happening?

Your box is too heavy (or has a glyph trap).

36lbs shouldn't be too heavy with 63 ranks of Demonology, should it?

I think it is

IIRC rule of thumb is 52 ranks of demonology allows for phasing of 26 pound containers? Max at 187 ranks is 44 pounds, so 63 ranks seems kind of low for 36 pounds.

edit: yeah. you would need 117 ranks of demonology to achieve a 13 bonus on seed 3 of the summation chart. 13 bonus, 2 pounds per bonus. 26 + base 10 lbs = 36

63 ranks gets you 28 lbs which is what most boxes are. I highly recommend 120 ranks demonology with all your EXP. No failure cross realm rifting.

Awesome. Thanks a lot for clearing that up, everyone. That helps a lot.

How long does the weightless phase last?

10 min + 6 seconds per sorc rank, IIRC

How long does the weightless phase last?

20 mins. at cap. Duration doesn't count after 100 or 101 ranks.
