When casting Summon creature IX, and choosing an elder earth elemental, the spell summoned a 70 hp wolf on the first cast, then the 2nd and 3rd castings worked properly.

Also, hitting your summons with AoE's(I did so with ice storm and cloudkill) still results in NPC's to turn hostile towards your character, although the Fist officer and the farmer didn't chase my toon, unlike the mob in Beregost did when I initially reported this bug.

New spell "Mislead" doesnt really work. According to the description once completed one is supposed to be undetectable for 2 seconds and an illusionary decoy is created. However whenever i use the spell my char keeps aggro and the illusion is completely ignored. I suppose thats not it should work?

- Dimension Door & Shadow Jump allow targeting, experimentally.
This doesnt seem to work as it should for Dimension Door.

First of the range is very very short like 1-2 feet. Second i get the message "You cannot teleport to this destination" and it fails.

When I cast Spell Resistance with spell power 3, advanced divine spell power (rolled a +5 bonus), and 30 caster levels, it came out with 42 SR. It should have been 50. This is probably related to the DC bug. It doesn't seem to count any spell powers or divine spell power to the CL.

Build is 7 cleric/10 morninglord/10 hierophant/3 rogue with practiced spell caster.

I cast it again and it had a 44 SR but I forget what the divine spell power roll was. What if to calculate epic DC and CL it is subtracting 9 from everything? Which would translate to 3 DC.

Ok... so I'm terrible when it comes to calculating CL and DC's, and I need some help here:

I was on my Spirit Shaman 14/Hierophant 1/Monk 3, with practiced spell caster and 12 unbuffed charisma(I literally just consulted the wiki and learned DC is charisma based for offensive magics, yay learning! :oops: :lol: ). I attempted to cast hold monster on a tiger on the tradeway 3 times, none of which worked, and I noticed that the tiger was rolling a will save against my DC of 15... am I wrong here in thinking practiced should bring that DC up to 18?

Note to self: ditch the few offensive spells I took >.<

The Wizard Level 8 spell Conjure Metalmen went through three percentages to cast then ended up it didn't cast anything at all.

The spell appears not to be working.

Something I noticed, was when I cast stone wall with my cleric and then I cast dispel magic on them to try and get rid of them, one of the 3 of them become undominated and then wouldn't go away. The other 2 despawned but the 3rd remained behind.

I am going to assume you have 17 caster levels as a wizard or 18 CL as a sorceror to have access to 9th level spells. However, since I do not see any epic spells listed, I will also assume you do not have a natural 19 int or cha. Unfortunately, although wearing gear allows you to prep 9th level spells with a lower int/cha, when leveling up, gear is not counted so the game does not consider you to have the ability to cast 9th level spells. Therefore, although it isn't specifically mentioned, a natural 19 int/cha is required to take epic spells and auto metamagic feats.

A DC of 15 is correct. It is 10+spell level+cha mod+DC feats+epic level bonus. Practiced spellcaster is a caster level feat, not a DC feat. The only time it will affect your DC's is in your epic levels when that epic level bonus based on caster level is calculated. So in your case, 10+4 (level of spell)+1 (cha bonus)=15. The Spell focus line adds to DC directly but not caster level.

Something odd is going on with greater dispel magic. My bard is 23 bard/4 PM/3 fighter with practiced spellcaster. That should give a caster level of 29 which for most things on the server, should not be dispellable. Especially in serpent hills where they cap out dispelling 28 but not 29. Usually the AI cheats and knows whether it should cast dispel magic or not. I've been hit now with multiple dispels and each time I lose 1-4 buffs. Now, even if they could dispel a 29 CL, I should only lose something on a roll of 20. Losing 3 things seems either something is broken or I've had really bad luck with mobs rolling 20's all the time.

Are we talking about targetted or area dispels?
