When Halo triggers in the Osrel Meraud orb, it now expends all the mana in the orb, and dumps all spells. This occurs when the orb is at 100%, even if halo is the only spell in the orb. I have confirmed this with multiple clerics of varying sizes. It was working as intended until yesterday, 10/22.
This occurs when halo fires due to a status change (webbed, stunned, immob'd, balance/lying down), or when infusing halo to trigger the effect. This occurs on both creatures as well as players. It still works as intended when self cast outside of the orb. Please halp.
>focus orb
>You graze your fingertips over the surface of the shadowy orb, feeling the crackling energy coursing through your hands.
>The orb resonates with a cache of holy mana. You perceive a slight tugging sensation, and realize that it is receptive to magical energy.
>The pervasiveness of the sensation evokes the image of the sapphirine planet Merewalda in your mind's eye.
>The strength of the sensation evokes the image of torrents of fiery rain falling upon Elanthia from the World Dragon's maw.
>You sense the Halo spell woven into the magical matrix of the orb.
>Roundtime: 3 sec.
>infuse halo 30
>You tap into the mana from thirty of the surrounding streams and attempt to keep it channeling in a stream around you.
>Roundtime: 1 sec.
>You concentrate intently, attempting to infuse a large amount of your harnessed mana into your active Halo spell pattern.
>Roundtime: 1 sec.
>Fractals of pale light materialize in a cascading pattern around you, outlining the faint beginnings of a complex gyre. With a bestial moan, shafts of brilliant white light erupt from the ether, illuminating the pattern as if it >were lifeblood sustaining the vein. The wall of light echoes outward rapidly, leaving a misty white halo to shroud you in its wake.
>A shadowy orb rippling with silver arcs of light floating around you suddenly grows very dim, depleted of power to support your spells.
>With a whispered sigh, your Halo spell expires.
>Chelinde ducks beneath the expanding ring of light.
