Player's Wail of the Banshee forcing mobs to roll twice

Unread post by Arn »

Just tried casting Wail of the Banshee on Elite Lizard Chieftain and an Elite Lizard Shaman.

Both of them had to roll TWO saves against death, each.

Chieftain failed his first save against death.
Chieftain succeeded on his second save.

Shaman succeeded on its first save against death.
Shaman failed its second save.

In case it matters, the DC was the same on all rolls.

They both died.

If this is by design, no complaints! ;) But I suspect Wail of the Banshee isn't supposed to give the caster two shots at a save-or-die on each victim.

Yeah noticed this earlier today as well when I got it casted on me by a monster and it had two saves as well. Was a lich in the vod that cast it and I was lucky cause I had had my deathward stripped. So not just players casting it but also mobs casting it force two saves. This is not just one sided!
