Spirit Shaman / Monk Bugs.

[kkrazlite]

Alright got a few bugs with a current build i'm running which is a combination of monk, spirit shaman and sacred fist.

BUG 1: First is a shape change AB bug. It seems that when i shape change the AB i have client side does not match up with the AB i have server side. But in some special cases they will fight with each other and ill start hitting for almost random numbers. I'm not sure if this is due to technically using a weapon in this case a "Creature" weapon because monk proficiency only allows unarmed weapons, claws and kama's. But i feel as though if this is a bug my AB should not be reduced in Shape shifted form that being well. . . If i'm a night walker, horned devil, or even a iron golem. I'm still technically unarmed those three don't used weapons and hold a human body structure thus allowing them the mimic martial arts play and in special cases they use "Claws" which should fit in the monk weapon proficiency category anyway. ((What i mean by this is when i look at my character sheet in horned devil form it tells me my AB is 46 but when i attack something the server side plugin tells me the highest attack roll was a 33 but then it will jump back and forth))

((I do think the AB should be reduced in the Ice Giant and Fire Giant forms though because they indeed do use martial weapons))


BUG 2: Another bug i'm catching is one that is very game breaking. . . So. If you are in shape shifted form as a Monk / Spirit shaman and you log out and back in, in the middle of combat it seems my AC inherently keeps growing to almost absurd levels. . . I'm not sure if this is due to the monk AC mixing with the AC of the shifted form but. . . in some cases this is something that could simply allow you to walk up to anything and stand there in its face laughing at it because of your crazy amounts of stacked AC.

BUG 3: Apparently in shape shifted form if you right click and barter someone your inventory pops up. But the big thing is you can drink potion and use scrolls if your UMD is high enough it seems. Not saying that's a bad thing but it seemed "Exploity".

I figured out the problem for the first part. Appearntly if you have levels in sacred fist it will reduce your AB by 8 if your shape shifted because a creature weapon does not count as a Monk weapon.

This link explains it at the bottom:

I still find it weird how it would apply to golem, nightwalker and horned devil.

But there is the answer.
