Greetings, The 'Scent of Darkness' click effect on my 'Fiendish Delights' has stopped working. There is no effect upon right-click but when out of line of sight it says, 'You cannot see your target.' It looks like it was bugged in a recent patch. Thank you.
I bought mine in Bazaar. It has 'Magic, Lore Item' tag and AoN icon. My best guess is it is a no longer dropped from pre-2003 Halloween GM event.
As a follow up: I attempted troubleshooting with a GM. GM gave me a new 'Fiendish Delights' to test. The item effect still did not work on mobs and my character in different zones. My chat remained blank upon right-click but did receive 'You cannot see your target' when out of line of sight. Also, there was no visual spell effect (previously haze/smoke on target) nor debuff/effect icon in target window (when targeting mobs).
The GM has played my character and duplicated the issue but could not correct the problem. He has filed a report. Thank you for your time in reviewing this bug.
I failed to mention this earlier. The item stopped working within the last 2 patches (August or September 2020 patch). I am thinking the problem may be a due to a recent spell database change.
It would be great to catalogue more information about this item "Fiendish Delights" as I have not been able to find any reference to it in EQ item lists on various websites. It sounds like an interesting item with its clicky. ZenMaster, may we know what server this is currently located on, and if the item is no-trade? You mentioned buying it in the bazaar, so it may be tradeable on all servers, or maybe it's no-trade except on Firiona Vie. Thank you!
Thank you for your interest. I am not the original owner. My belief is that is was a early Halloween GM reward (1999-2002) that was uncovered and sold (tradable) recently. It shows the characteristic 'Magic Item Lore Item' mark of older items. I had only owned the item for 6 months before it stopped working. GM logged into my character and tested it. It is legitimate (likely not some long lost GM item). I think it is best not to disclose the stats of the item at this time (until after fix and testing phase). It is probable that the dev team may put restrictions on it (recast delay).
Currently unable to reproduce this problem. Can you provide additional information? Specifically: What class is your character? What race is your character? What level is your character? Thank you!
Hi TrueNorth. Class: Shadowknight Race: Human Level: 115 I will PM you my character name and server. A GM was able to log on my character, encounter the same issue (unable to click effect), and write a report. Thank you very much!
