Illusory Pit and Color Spray Changed/Bugged?

[dolifer]

I've noticed these today and last night... Thought last night things were just weird for some reason, but it's continuing. I'm not sure whether they're bugs or changes or what, but...

Either color spray is having no effect at all, or it's lasting so short a time you can't even get one attack in before the spell falls.

An earthstone glows briefly.
A candle glows briefly.

This one is confirmably (from my end, at least, since color spray doesn't add any lines to the mob's condition when you glance at it) definitely doing something wrong. It's still lasting as it should, but those effected seem to be able to function unhindered and without the crits the caster gets from the stun effect.

No idea what's going on with these, but thought I'd give a heads up and perhaps see whether anyone else has had or will have similar experiences. Like I said, it's not just a one-time fluke thing for me.

Thanks

Colour spray has always only lasted 1 round with NPCs that are above a certain level for me. As a note I only use it in a group really when a fighter can get 5 crits in a round with it on.

I'll see about the pit later if I should play a char that can use it

The pit also seems to be working fine for me, though I didn't test on kuo-toa

Some creatures, certain kuo-toa amongst them, are (per canon) immune to paralysis and so are permanently affected by the "freedom of movement" spell, which makes them immune to stun and paralysis effects.

You still see the spell's "hit" echo because some of the spells affects still stick - namely a complete loss of dexterity, in the case of illusory pit.

Nnnice, Raona. Whip out your rulebooks, noobs!
