Path of the sun bug/confusion?

#1 Post by Fela »

My sun paladin died a bit unexpectedly in an ambush today - and i'm not quite sure what went wrong.
I usually close up to spell casters with path of the sun. In this case on 'Cyamirosad the shalore' - not sure if those guys are completely random?

Anyway, the time preservation effect of path of the sun completely failed, which is somewhat weird, as there is no condition under which it should be possible to fail? (The guy dispelled me and then cast congeal time - I'm not sure if the latter could cause that, but he should not have been able to set it off anyway, as the response to my path of the sun was the dispel and then i should have been in zero time movement)

Path of the Sun gives you a buff when cast that allows you to travel on the created "path" without taking any time. That buff is magical... and can be cleared by Disperse Magic.
That's probably what happened.

Thanks. I was just now coming here in order to voice that suspicion, after actually noticing the buff lately, but found you already having answered.

Sounds like something that needs fixing, though. That buff should either be non-dispellable or the free move should be solved differently.
