Talk:Diamond soul
From NWNWiki
- If the Spell version of Spell Resistance could offer a higher resistance will it in fact be used?

- NWN uses whichever is highest--Defunc7 13:59, 16 Nov 2005 (PST)
- Thanks. Got a little worried when I read the note
This feat means monks will not need to wear items with spell resistance since those items will not modify the monk's spell resistance rating even if the item SR is higher than the monk's innate SR from diamond soul. DaBear 14:33, 16 Nov 2005 (PST)
- I don't believe that's correct. Has anyone tested it? -- Austicke 17:19, 16 Nov 2005 (PST)
- DaBear is actually correct from what I heard from the Bioware forums. However, we should probably do our own testing. This is actually one of the changes done in one of the latest patches and hence stops Mords from lowering Monks SR. -- Chrominium 03:10, 17 Nov 2005 (PST)
All i can say is that the highest value show up in the character sheet. and it's used i tried with a level 1 Monk with a 30 SR Dagger, if i had the dagger equipped the spell fail all the time. while without it. it did penetrate my SR several times. so i would say that note is false in normal circumstances. maybe there is some special case? --CID-78 07:10, 21 January 2006 (PST)
- Monks don't get SR until level 12, so I'm not sure that's a valid test. -- Alec Usticke 07:58, 21 January 2006 (PST)
the feat is active and working so i would say it is.(who bothers about gaining a character up to X level when you can instead give the character the feat at any level) the NWN engine doesn't need a specific level to be reached for a feat to be added. atleast if there isn't a level variabel in the formula that result in sum of 0 or below. the only difference is that i tested with a SR of 11 instead of 22. it's just numbers when it comes to the game. --CID-78 08:14, 21 January 2006 (PST)
- I see. You didn't mention you edited the character to give them the feat. -- Alec Usticke 10:59, 21 January 2006 (PST)
No but i thought that was obvious. i can't test a feat if i don't have it. --CID-78 03:13, 22 January 2006 (PST)
- Well, no one ever accused me of being smart. :) -- Alec Usticke 14:21, 22 January 2006 (PST)
