Talk:Shadow dragon

Shadowblend testing
Controls: Removed mass camouflage, fear aura & dragon breath from special abilities. Custom script used: Placed shadowblend into OnPerception script which was cast immediately by creature using the default perception range.

Perhaps the vanilla AI contains conditionals for the casting of shadowblend that delay its casting for some reason? Perhaps it is the last special ability in queue because it it listed last (although the fear aura is present as soon as the module loads and before OnPerception happens so something else decides the order IMO)? The blank Category in spells.2da field has nothing to do with it since (for example) Darkness is also blank and driders use this ability all the time with vanilla AI. Anyone is welcome to research the cause of the delay but any creature will buff to 90% concealment successfully with this spell with a vanilla AI. --Iconclast 05:06, June 10, 2012 (UTC)
