QoL Zoo Spell Change
viewtopic.php?f=27&t=26490
Thank you so much!
This seriously is a huge QoL change. My record for the most 2 or 3 rolls on these in a row is 14, and for a max roll my record is 18 uses.
I've also had to use over 10 uses before getting a 4 or 5 more times than I've been able to keep track of.
It had gotten to the point where I was literally tracking how many uses it toke as a strange sort of joke, just to see if I could beat my previous records.
Thank you so much!

Re: QoL Zoo Spell Change
Live soon, I never tested this one so we'll see how well it works.
Re: QoL Zoo Spell Change
I'm excited to see how it plays out myself, I'm sure it'll make a huge difference for low level characters starting up.
I noticed that it doesn't effect empower from the update post. Very sad as that doesn't change anything for poor warlocks that end up rolling 14 times to hit a 4 roll.
Nevertheless it's an excellent update. A+

Re: QoL Zoo Spell Change
I've fixed the issue, NWNX is broken for this so the solution is more straightforward.
Next reset this should work as intended and for Empower as well. Only Maximized metamagic overrides this as its, well, maximized. Epowered, Still, Extended, None or Quicken will make use of this and for Empowered it will raise the cap simply.
Though mixing and swapping metamagic may not work, so say you cast a regular Bull's Strength, roll a 5, and then cast a Empowered Bull's Strength it will probably override the previous cast and start from 0. Well that's a niche case anyway.
EDIT: Oh and you'll be notified once you hit the max now.

Re: QoL Zoo Spell Change
ActionReplay is such a hero to all of us Buffers.
It has been such a pain to get 6x 2-3's in a row. Never again. Now I can actually use my spell slots into something 'meaningful', rather than waste away due to NWN RNG.

Re: QoL Zoo Spell Change
No more holding awkward stat scores. Now we can all be exactly 5 from max and get the max reliably. This will make wand consumption and time consumption much lower. Thanks a lot for the change. I'm sure it benefits all characters in the game equally so its a great change.

Re: QoL Zoo Spell Change
Not sure if this is intentional, but it doesn't work with the +1 /2 from GSF/ESF: transmutation... as in it still caps at 5 so to take advantage of the sweet sweet +6/7 rolls still requires spamming. Not a problem on my warlock but may impact other casting classes.

Don't think it's live on servers yet. ActionReply said "at next reset", but server's been up for 2 days 11 hours at the time of posting.godhand- wrote: ↑Fri Dec 27, 2019 11:31 amNot sure if this is intentional, but it doesn't work with the +1 /2 from GSF/ESF: transmutation... as in it still caps at 5 so to take advantage of the sweet sweet +6/7 rolls still requires spamming.

Re: QoL Zoo Spell Change
Thsoe bonuses are applied after, they shouldnt affect your cap. The cap is only on the roll itself. The Transmutation bonuses are applied after so if you reach the +5 cap and have the focuses you should be getting +6/+7.godhand- wrote: ↑Fri Dec 27, 2019 11:31 amNot sure if this is intentional, but it doesn't work with the +1 /2 from GSF/ESF: transmutation... as in it still caps at 5 so to take advantage of the sweet sweet +6/7 rolls still requires spamming.

EDIT: I understand this can be confusing, you should be looking for a text message saying you maxed your attribute. There is another message saying how high your roll was and this one includes Spell focuses, so if it says you got a +5 and you have the focuses you actually rolled a 3, not a 5 so you haven't reached the cap yet. If it says you have 6 or 7 you've capped.
