Looted this thing:

Says is owl's, is actually bark's.

Description makes me believe it's a designed item rather than RIG.

thats either an OC original issue or something that happened after greater stat spells were removed, pretty sure they were never on the server though aside from a few items that have long since been nerfed to the normal versions

either way dont expect to get the +8 version

I have a greater bulls strength potion and I noticed the CL is higher than a normal non greater one.

CL doesnt really matter

normal stat spells are +4, greater stat spells are +6 or 8 i cant remember

the only ones i remember for sure ever being on the server were greater cats on some leather armor and greater owls but i dont remember what it was on

It matters for duration.

I found several of scrolls and potions of these and they all just had higher CL. So, it's totally not going to be +6 or +8.
The issue here is that it has wrong spell attacked to it. Should have been something like Owl's wisdom CL 17-20.

Like I stated in my previous post, it's just duration.

Those spells are from NWN1 and were never made for NWN2, but something that our server has is that someone added a lot of NWN1 items to our loot tables so that is why you also find potions of negative energy protection and potions of greater x or y.

Some don't work at all while others are a bit bugged.

I actually have a mace and a sword that are from NWN1 OC but were never in NWN2 OC or expansions.

Even if same bonus, but higher cl for duration/dispels could make these worth it.

Owl's is prolly less valuable but for the other variants? I could imagine looting one and being fairly happy with it (then never using it so as to have it on hand "for that one time...") but that's irrelevant)

well the point was that they should not be on the server anymore, so if its the +4 version but just higher duration then w/e

the spells were probably changed but not updated in the text, though im pretty sure my leather armor says its normal cats grace, so a few items were probably just missed

Potion was switched to provide "own's wisdom" with similar CL as other "greater" potions. Keep in mind, there are no +8 stat potions on server.

Fixed, but it will only affect new potions, existing ones remain the same.
