Default Re: Elf bane - bug?

Yes, you repelled, but I had an 18 Morale and I'd have to fail a Morale check to not attack through the repel. Again, I'm not entirely clear on the debug log, but it seems extremely unlikely that 10+ times I failed the morale check caused by the repel (if that is the case, this seems like a bug of a different sort). What it looked like to me was that I hit but you resisted it:

I think the Elf Bane is not a good weapon. Do not use debug or other tools. Just trial and error and I am never impressed with its results.

A weapon i never, ever use. Sounds good in the descr, but there are many better weapons out there at the same level that work better in my testing.

Repel-calculation starts from the difference in length, and I don't think it got to attack-negating phase in the two parts you posted. In other words, repel happened but wasn't SUCCESSFUL.


I don't know what's up with Elf Bane.
