Yep. This was a deliberate decision - I may change it back, but I'm leaving as is for now.

Ah, so that's why I'm keeping my wards against multiple dispels now. I like it :D

When the Warlock update goes live there (hopefully by the end of the weekend, but I still haven't figured out how to properly set new warlocks up for FL).

The Greater Dispelling checks for SR now, or all dispells?

does this mean any race or player that took the SR gift or have SR racial abilities are effectively immune to dispel now?

Uhm, drow has a racial gift that makes them end up with 32 SR after a good sum of levels, no?

Yes. Qirovva is certainly not complaining about this change. It shores up one of her weaknesses very nicely.

Seems to be all dispels, though I haven't tried disjunction yet. Actually, I'm hoping disjunction bypasses SR. It would be very silly if you had to crack a creature's SR to lower its SR.

Disjunction and breaches still bypass SR as before. Only the Dispel line of spells are affected.
