i think you missed the previous couple sentences from what you highlighted...but then again maybe its some kind of handicap. Canonlyreadboldsdisease. In that case the only thing thats important is your a dumbfuck, no shit asshat, where have you been the past 2 weeks.

Jesus, Im sorry your father sodomized you so hard as a young boy.

Much anger there. I can really visualize the veins popping out on your forehead as you typed that, pounding with all the fury only a 1000 late night ass rapings could've produced.

Sorry man, wont reply to anything you post again.

God..

I just want to say I really, really, really miss the bug on Gnomish Stilts that allowed you to jump 100 feet in the air.

<3 ya Fyreflyte for the good times I did have with those boots!

yup, when they took away the super height on the boots I felt like a part of my soul was robbed away

end game raid wizard peice, no doubt...i use one and love it.

I agree that this item is very good for certain classes and even a bit overpowered for say sorceror cause i see it's being even better than NoP for them for most of the raid situations. The idea of this item is very creative and new, strange that it doesn't drop of some kind of vampire though. However this item in it's current state is really bugged and needs some tweaks.
Another bug that i noticed is when you use power returning spell Blazing Vigor ( conjuror spell) it procs on you twice so you loose 10% health which is def not intended cause it's not even a hostile spell casted on your enemy, it just converts some of your pet's health into your power ( 1123 hp into 350 power at master I). I never seen any other damage proc items proccing on my pet when i use that spell lol so i dunno why this item should.

Here's some log info :
(1193142138)[Tue Oct 23 16 18 2007] You summon potent elemental energy.
(1193142138)[Tue Oct 23 16 18 2007] Necrofae intercepted some of the damage intended for you!
(1193142138)[Tue Oct 23 16 18 2007] Necrofae intercepted some of the damage intended for your target!
(1193142138)[Tue Oct 23 16 18 2007] YOUR Vampiric Requiem hits YOURSELF for 182 magic damage.
(1193142138)[Tue Oct 23 16 18 2007] You feel much stronger!
(1193142138)[Tue Oct 23 16 18 2007] You summon potent elemental energy.
(1193142138)[Tue Oct 23 16 18 2007] YOUR Blazing Vigor hits Necrofae for 960 magic damage.
(1193142138)[Tue Oct 23 16 18 2007] YOUR Vampiric Requiem hits YOURSELF for 285 magic damage.
(1193142138)[Tue Oct 23 16 18 2007] Necrofae looks much stronger!

I also noticed that Minion's Warding can intercept some of the damage Vampiric Feedback does to you. Hope They will fix this bug and also dying twice and Multi damage on aoes too cause this item really looks promising and possible can be used even in RoK as it's still good 10% spell/CA damage upgrade

Actually, most, if not all of these problems have nothing to do with the item itself. Nor is it "poorly implemented"; it functions in the same fashion that all procs do, you just don't typically see negative effects on the procs, so it's seen as an added bonus when things proc multiple times (from AoE spells), or when they crit. The one portion mentioned that does sound buggy is the damage on resurrect. That is unintended, and I'll see what I can do about mitigating that.

We don't have hours to devote to testing each and every item we create. Because it wasn't apparent that dying would cause a player to re-wear this item, nobody thought to try killing themselves with it on. I do pretty extensive positive testing on all effects I create, but there are literally an infinite number of negative test cases that could be run, and no matter how many we do, tens of thousands of players are eventually going to run into situations we hadn't even thought of.

Of course I could always go back to just putting straight stats on every item and avoiding this situation altogether... but where's the fun in that?

First off props on your hard work I know you get shit on a lot.. It took me many deaths and zoning and reading extensive log files to realize the effect of this one item failing. To that I completely understand the impact of having thousands of in-game items to work with.

The re-equip while clearly not intended is a minor issue for for as far as I am concerned and just simply treat like a buff spell.

I really like the item and thanks for making it =p

/ducks the fanboi flames.

its kinda annoying to heal our wizard that has one but as a slacker templar, i got nothing better to do on trash! his 10% more damage is probably more than id be doing myself anyway!
