xp1337 06/03/19 8:56:56 PM #121:	lmao incredible pillars of eternity ii moment So I was fighting some undead and it was annoying because they had an immunity to pierce type damage (which is most ranged weapons and the most common damage type on my team cuz it's like 1 tank and 4 ranged most of the time but i digress) and all of a sudden my MC just gets removed from existence. A tutorial message about character death flashes in the corner but disappears almost instantly and my MC's portrait just vanishes from the status bar and the log goes nuts saying all my quest critical items were moved. (Normally HP to 0 knocks you out for the rest of combat barring a revive spell, and after combat ends you get back up but with an injury which is a persistent debuff that lasts until you rest at an inn or something similar. You can for-real die if you acquire 4 injuries at the same time. I had no injuries when this all occurred.) I thought at first this was some weird glitch, reloaded immediately... but it happened again. And then it hit me... I realized it wasn't a glitch but instead something hilariously amazing. When possible, I was having my MC cast Disintegrate, which is a spell that does heavy damage - and more importantly to me, is of a damage type that can't be resisted - it also has a feature where if it kills an enemy, they are just... disintegrated (in practical terms this means no corpse, enemies just turn into like little dust loot piles.) It turns out both times I cast it on an undead mage who had a reflection spell up, so the attack reflected back at me and disintegrated me and the special disintegrate effect bypasses the injury rules and just perma-kills you on the spot... which makes sense! I realized it when I saw in the log "MC kills MC" and looked up at the enemies and saw the mage had Minor Arcane Reflection as an effect on it. lol. I didn't realize that, but in my defense, I didn't think Arcane Reflection worked on Cipher Spells (the class my character is) but I guess it does! I should have finished the battle to see if the game would nonsensically let me continue with a permanently dead MC. It 100% shouldn't, but it didn't game over me right there either soooo... --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? <cite>xp1337 posted [p:922752867] in SaveEstell...
