Are Darklings meant to be immune to all special abilities as well as standard spells?

December 7, 2010 8:52:38 PM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums

For example, it appears that they are completely immune to Crushing Blow.  I know that Special Abilities are technically spells in Elemental, but are Darklings meant to be immune to all Special Ability <Spells> as well as Standard Spells?

Best regards,
Steven.

Yes. They have spell immunity. So any spell will always show Immune.

My guess is it's a coding limitation rather than an intentional design feature.

Some abilities aren't really spells though...

Specifically, Crushing Blow.  Dominate (Assassin) is another example.

Plus all those cool abilities in the weapons mod as well, Darklings are immune to all of these.

While they shouldn't be spells, they are. Thats how the special ability system works.

qouted - from above "While they shouldn't be spells, they are. Thats how the special ability system works. "

 

so spells are consdiered spells and abiltys are consdiered spells so thats why aibltys cant hurt darklins sounds like issue with albitys ? shouldnt abiltys be there own thing and not dealt same as spells ?
