basically, we all know that 戦闘�能 status means dead... in this pic i seem to have dispelled the dead status of a bone mob with added effect...
I tried casting dark magic on it but it was still immune. Couldn't ask mages to try curing it in time, was curious to see what it would do :sweat:
anyone else ever seen this happen before? :sweat:

Maybe an error? because sites don't have any info about that stats.

Um...I don't get it, did you bring a bone mob back to life or something?

um, I was just screwing around on that text I was writing :sweat: I don't really get the picture though Awn. Can you explain it a little more.

Odd...
what weapon were you using?
more research into this seems prudent...

I haven't seen that happen, but I have seen something equally unusual.
I was leveling my summoner and every now and then, when I casted Cure II, I'd randomly see: "Cover! Kiyone begins casting Cure II on YYY"

the funny thing is no one knew what i was talking about... so was that to say they had chat filters on, or whether it was just my side of the game acting funny.... i don't know.

Looks like the Beta Testers didn't test very well.....(if it's a glitch)

In regards to Awntan's pic...
It's a good thing he didn't post it on April 1st or I would have dismissed it as an April Fool's joke. It appears that the dispel proc on his weapon erased the "dead" (KO) status of the monster. Does this mean that undead monsters are literally dead all the time?
My guess is that 戦闘�能 (KO) status enables them to take damage from Cure spells.

It's a glitch in the matrix. Look out for Agent Smith.:thumbsup:

Wow...glitch city, son.
You reported it already, right?
Don't think they should be UNundead. ._.
Nodoka

Maybe the effect you dispelled is the thing that makes them take less damage from swords and such. I heard somewhere casting Banish can make undead take normal damage from those types of weapons for a few hits, maybe dispelling this 'undead effect' does the same thing.

It would be cool if un-death-ing them made them die... err... un-die.

I had a similar thing happen to me in Onzozo during a level up party. Our red mage casted blizzard II and the message popped up "Resist! Redmagewhatever starts casting Blizzard II on Torama". I told the group of the odd message and asked them all to check, and sure enough it was that way in everyone's log. I then checked the damage on that blizz II and it hit for like 42 damage. So it was neither 0 damage, or resisted (like during SL fight I've seen an elemental spell resisted). We continued trying to replicate the situation, and it never happened again. We shrugged it off as a "glitch" but it's good to see that similar things have happened to other players.

PLD get an ability called cover that lets them take damage for another player if that played gets behind the PLD. What you saw was a PLD actually using it correctly lol. Most pld don't even macro /p Using cover! Get behind me! when they are using it so the mage or whoever is being covered panics and runs wasting a perfectly good ability..../offtopic

check my level please ;_; I know what cover does. I have been covered many times. But, no, paladins don't learn cover at level 30. Also, I wasn't a paladin when it happened. In fact, no one in the party was a paladin. I wasn't behind anyone, and the beast was quite far from me.

and how do you cover with a cure II? >.>;;
when cover works, it should say: Cover! [PLD] takes ## damage.
not: Cover! [SMN] starts casting Cure II on [tank]!
Nodoka

Anything that gets resisted due to a Job Traits will get the Resist! message. I've seen bard mobs Resist! my silence spells. Also I've seen wars or whatever get that message with poison.

The cover thing is a bug. I've seen it happen with Cover and Resist . Also, this never happened in beta :P If I'm not mistaken it started happening after the patch where "Resist" messages started appearing.

I've seen the cover bug too, but only on my log and no one else's in the same area. It seems the word gets randomly affixed to the start of the sentence. kinda like how some songs show up as meals eaten are affecting your performance.
I've had a similar erroneous message as well. Once I was in the Necropolis and casting sneak only to see:
Resist! Neriya casts Sneak on Neriya.
I don't know about most folks, but I know I don't want to be resisting sneaks in the necro -_- Thankfully the spell did stick and happened to last a long time too :P
