Curse

From the latest update notes:

Quote:

Fixed a bug that caused Reclaim Essence to only affect Spirits within earshot.

So my question is, does this skill affect all spirits in spirit range, compass range or something else?

P.S. Yes, I would test this out myself but I am at work at the moment.

Read skill description, works as it was supposed to do, removes all spirits.

Nightow · Nov 07, 2008, 07:24 PM // 19:24

I did read the description and I know it works as it was supposed to do but like I was asking, what range does it have?

DarkNecrid · Nov 07, 2008, 07:27 PM // 19:27

Again, read the description.

The point is is that it is supposed to have no range. It affects all your Spirits anywhere on the map.

Sorry, it just didn't seem that clear for me. Thank you for answering my question.

Hopefully, a mod can come and close this thread now.

How is "EarShot" the entire map???

Earshot is clearly defined at the link above

Ahhh I misunderstood I thought it was changed TO within earshot... my bad

Please re-read the update entry again...it FIXED a bug that caused it to only have earshot range. It now has unlimited range like intended.

I was about to bitch about how stupid this is compared to UA or HP - but then tested it and this came along:

As you can see - that's me using RE - and my guys who aren't on my radar (they are standing at the entrance to the Isles) are STILL under the influence of Recuperation. EDIT: AND Recoup isn't recharged (which should be THE easy giveaway to see if this skill killed a spirit but it actually took me a BIT longer to put those pieces together ...

)
Which means that RE doesn't kill ALL your spirits regardless of their position - but works the same way as Heal Party - sphere of influence only aka compas range.
As shown here:
Under the influence:

Poof - it's gone:

And yes - I do like those pink arrows!
*cutie*

I'm saving these pictures as documented evidence of your rit not using AP

As a side note, I learn so many things about skills I never touch whenever you have one of these screenshot-fests. I love them, keep doing them.

Still not sure I'm seeing the eliteness of this skill tbh. I guess because it recharges all your rituals?

Ah ha! Interesting and good to know, thanks for the testing Upier!

Also, seconding what zelgadissan said. No AP on Upiers bar? The gods must be insane!
