HereticDamageLOP issues

I noticed that the damage calculation on Heretic focus damage spells is corrupted. Referring to report 3704 and patch note 1.90 and 1.91 (and Char-Planer). I created a bug fix.

First of, what is wrong?
  • damage growth is exponential rather than linear
  • no damage growth cap (exploitable)
  • on resist the damage decreases rather than increases
  • no focus rupt on death of target ; even if the powerpool is empty it ticks a last time
I tried to create a bug fix. It will only fix the problems with HereticDamageLOP not the SpeedDecrease Pendant.

Forgot to say that I used the LifeDrainReturn column as DamageGrowthFactor and AmnesiaChance as DamageMultiplierCap.
Accordingly:
Code: Select all
UPDATE spell SET LifeDrainReturn=50, AmnesiaChance=250 WHERE Type='HereticDoTLostOnPulse' AND Name like 'Arawn%' LIMIT 9;
UPDATE spell SET LifeDrainReturn=40, AmnesiaChance=450 WHERE Type='HereticDoTLostOnPulse' AND( Name='Glistening Blaze' OR Name='Whirling Blaze' OR Name='Torrential Blaze') LIMIT 3;

thank you, excellent. Some classes need love (ie heretic, or warlock and i believe mauler) because they were roughly implemented.
