Spell focus[]
Just noticed something this morning the DC calculation of that spell isn't affected by spell focus.ILKAY 15:35, April 3, 2010 (UTC)
- That's because the DC is calculated in an on-enter of an area of effect. To factor in spell focus (and also saves vs. spells, spellcraft, and arcane defense, if the save is also made in the main script), GetSpellSaveDC() must be put in the main script of the casting (the one that creates the AoE). You will notice a similar bug with all the other lasting area of effect spells. WhiZard 17:11, April 3, 2010 (UTC)
- Actually I take that back, I saw that delayed blast had no different treatment than other spells on the on-enter, and I had thought you had firmly established the DC did not take focus into account. I have just tested this and spell focus feats are preserved in GetSpellSaveDC() even in on-enter scripts and delayed commands, and also specifically with delayed blast fireball (tested both when firing the spell at a hostile, and when after waiting having a hostile trigger the spell); it's just the saving throws using arcane defense or saves vs. spells (including spellcraft) that are not taken into account when the spell save is executed by another script than the main.

- Weird I had a DC of 34 before, I retest today and I do have a DC of 40 (focus take into account) there must be a flaw somewhere in the script since I am sure that I had a DC 34 and not 40 three day ago.--ILKAY 21:51, April 4, 2010 (UTC)
- Do you think you can replicate what happened? I've even gone so far as to test when another spell (of a different school) is cast after the delayed blast is set but before it is triggered, and the saves are still reflecting the evocation focus. WhiZard 22:19, April 4, 2010 (UTC)
- Nop I tryed for about 30 minute, I think its random bug like when GetIsImmune() function bug and make you immune to all spell. Must be rare case xd --ILKAY 11:11, April 5, 2010 (UTC)
Duration[]
I updated the duration to reflect the script. Not sure if a note below the article is worthwhile for such a minor thing, and it would have said essentially what the edit did. But, if one is added, it might also be noted that there is a minimum duration of 1 round (not usually a concern, given the spell's level). - MrZork (talk) 17:55, July 20, 2014 (UTC)
