Ignite Bones

[Vumr]

I started using ignite bones when I got it at level 44 for the 500 damage and at level 58 I am still using it in group situations. I do not group a lot, but I have continued using it in groups as it seems that the melees are doing much more damage while it is on. At some point I saw a post that said in addition to the 500 damage that the spell droped the targets AC to near zero. I have searched and not been able to find that post again and never see any comments on this spell. I tried casting it on myself and always get the message that I resisted it. Does anyone know if this spell indeed drops a targets AC or is it just an optical illusion? Thanks

I do not think it drops AC... If it does it would be the first time I have heard of it. It does however have a nice benefit... It stunns them and will interrupt casters. As does the chill bones spell. Very benificial indeed.

Boney doesn't seem any more effective against another skeleton.

Insidious Retrogression includes an AC debuff and a snare. Duration's pretty random, but it's nice while it lasts.

Why not just look it up on allahs or lucy ?
Then there is just fact, not perceptions.

Be careful, later in game mobs hit box plays a large roll in raiding. If you cast skele form on some mobs this will throw off melee range and can cause alot of agro problems. I know this isn't much to do with post just FYI been in guild with a few nec who didn't know this and had to have talk with them lol=).
