Poison

Post by alatar »

Does curing poison work as it should, as well as GCure Pots? You shouldn't be able to cure heavy poisons 100% with GM Mage. You should fail to cure Deadly Poison like 20-25% of the time, and even more for Lethal. Not quite sure if you can fail to cure Greater Poison at GM though..

I just verified all the formulas. It's not a sure thing to cure any poison with a spell. Greater Cure will always cure Greater Poision, but not always Deadly or Lethal.

I'm not looking for an exact percentage but its possible to fail to cure lesser poison at GM Mage? If so I think that's a great idea as there should never be a 100% chance.

The game works better when there isn't 100% of success.. Not just poisoning but all aspects of UO, a tamer with 100 skill shouldn't be able to tame a dragon everytime because his skill read 100.0

I'm glad I took another look at this. Cure was not configured correctly for the era.
But yes, Lesser Poison is always cured, which is accurate, but we did have a problem with the more deadlier posions being cured too often, which has been corrected.
