how does absorbing work.Im noticed in the magic codes there is abs-cold abs-cold% how does the absorbing work? just wondering. I want to make a rune that absorbs elemtal damage instead of just giving resistance.

I think the abs-cold absorbs that amout of cold damage (if you set it to 20 it will absob 20 dmg) and theabs-cold% absorbs a percentage of the dmg.------------------ I'm bored :)

cool. I have made my runes, and tested them too  I really wish the pierce-(elem) attributes worked though  That would a great rune for sorc or amazon, as it could decrease enemy resistances. It is an unifinished attribye though, and does not work.

Yeah, absorb allows the element of choice to partially heal you. Set high enough of course, you would be healed so much that the element could no longer damage you.Can become a very overpowered magical ability either on its own or combined with decent resists, so be cautious. Unless of course you want godlike invincibility.  ------------------ - JEFF "A hero is no braver than anyone else. He is only brave five minutes longer."

"godlike invincibility" cant be made since v1.08, for that you would just have needed to set attacker takes damage to 8388607, damage reduced by 8388607, magic damage reduced by 8388607 this was the base i based GBG (Gods be Gone (since v1.02 ) on now the only thing that you can do to defend your open games against pks is to set a magic damage spell to do like 6-8 million dmg.------------------ ------------------------- Your Soul is MINE! ------------------------- XyRAXv21.00B Comming SoOn -------------------------  [This message has been edited by NefariusDX (edited 14 December 2001).]
