Suspension of Darkness - something odd?

[Gaell Stormracer]

I've been trying to determine if there's any other all-vendor potions with a triv > 231, and I've found that the order goes Basic/Worked, Shaped, Formed in terms of increasing trivial (Basic & Worked Slime VII = 228, Shaped = 230, Formed = 231).

I then tried to see if any of the other effects had higher trivs. I eliminated Flame and Frost (both 215 for VII with Formed). I then tried to see if I could work out what Darkness VII was, but got nowhere by the usual method. I noticed that Darkness II is in fact using the 'level 3' throwing components, but the lower level combines don't seem to work either.

Anyone else got any further with these? Maybe Darkness only goes to a few levels?

[Ngreth Thergn]

Darkness is only I - III and the I starts where the IV on others does.

[Gaell Stormracer]

Actually

Suspension of Darkness II is where the level III potion should be, so I tried 1 below and 1 above:

Formed Suspension of Darkness I: (Yield 1, Trivial 57, Stackable)

Sticklewort
Grain of Bulb Lotus Pollen
Fragment of Icicle Ivy
Single Prism Grain x 2
Crude Formed Potion Vial

Formed Suspension of Darkness I
MAGIC ITEM
Skill: Throwing Atk Delay: 40
DMG: 1
Effect: Dazzling Concoction I (Combat)
Required level of 15.
WT: 0.8 Range: 150 Size: SMALL
Class: ALL
Race: ALL

Dazzling Concoction I
Required Level: 15
Spell Effect: Covers your opponents eyes in blinding goo.

Then I tried '1 up':

Formed Suspension of Darkness III: (Yield 1, Trivial 108, Stackable)

Sticklewort
Grain of Bulb Lotus Pollen
Fragment of Icicle Ivy
Single Prism Grain x 2
Crude Formed Potion Vial

Formed Suspension of Darkness III
MAGIC ITEM
Skill: Throwing Atk Delay: 40
DMG: 1
Effect: Dazzling Concoction III (Combat)
Required level of 25.
WT: 0.8 Range: 150 Size: SMALL
Class: ALL
Race: ALL

Dazzling Concoction III
Required Level: 25
Spell Effect: Coats your target in flaming goo, causing 1 damage.

So, other than the offset start and the limited range, it fits perfectly into the Suspension pattern.

[Ngreth Thergn]

The offset was purposeful (Though I though I had a larger offset ::shrug:: not vital), and currently the limited range of I-III only was purposeful

The casting level of 25 means that it's going to be pretty easy for higher level mobs to resist it, though... is that also intended?

Well...

you almost don't want this on mobs... it is more a PVP thing....

I can ajust the casting level on these though after I talk to maddoc about this.

On mobs... Darkness = Fear. They run away as fast as they can.

[Mukkul]

Looking at the raw spell data it looks like the effective casting level could be 70 for all 3. But that would mean a low level player would have an easy time landing this on any level opponent.

Gaell, your recipe for III is copied from your recipe for I.

[Gaell Stormracer]

Weeeell..... Darkness = mobs run randomly, but if the person they are mad at, um... dies..., when they see again they wont have aggro and will ususally path back differently.

(One of my other selves is a Monk with a Bio Orb ).

Mukkul - wups, you're right. it should be:

Makeshift Formed Potion Vial
Belan
Pinch of Bulb Lotus Pollen
Icicle Ivy Leaf
Pinch of Prism Grains x 2
