| You shift the focus of the surrounding energies into fire. |

| You are now in a defensive stance. |

| [Kobold Village, Squirrel Hutch] |
| Gnawed bones and other more obscene carrion weave a grisly carpet here, a tapestry depicting carnage more vivid than the most gifted and demented of mortal artists might dare. You struggle to hold down your latest meal as you note a familiar looking skull nearby. What fate could be worse than to spend eternity between the razor sharp teeth of diseased rodents? You also see a rabid squirrel. |

| [Kobold Village, Squirrel Hutch] |
| Jagged fingers of metal point from the walls and roof at a thousand angles like a mob of kobolds asked to give directions. The ground is awash with rodent urine and there are more squirrel pellets piled across the sodden ground than gems in an archmage's coffers. If you lived here, you'd have a bad attitude too. You also see a rabid squirrel. |

I don't know why 520 FIRE version is on me since I have no EL:F ranks (only EL:E) and I never ever, not once, have I ever INCANT 520 FIRE. I have always INCANT 520 EARTH or used MANA SPELLUP (last I checked after using MANA SPELLUP when I had no spells, it did cast me 520 EARTH version).
I wanted to test this weapon of mine since it shows on the INSPECT verb that the weapon is a modified mace (yet it swings like a crappy cudgle) and I bugged it some time ago (and again just now, along with registering the weapon). Cudgle AvD vs cloth or AsG5 is 20 whereas a mace AvD is 31 vs cloth and 32 vs AsG 5.
While swinging the weapon in defensive I noticed the Fiery energy from your mage armor weaves itself into your spell, strengthening it! message. I was under the impression this was supposed to trigger when you CHANNEL a spell, not when you swing a weapon.
| Steps I did to reproduce the issue: |
| STOP 520 |
| INCANT 520 EARTH |
| Stance defensive |
| Swing the weapon 20 times - no "Fiery energy from your mage armor weaves itself into your spell, strengthening it!" messaging. |
| STOP 520 |
| INCANT 520 FIRE |
| Stance defensive |
| Swing the weapon 4 times and got the "Fiery energy from your mage armor weaves itself into your spell, strengthening it!" messaging. |
| STOP 520 |
| use MANA SPELLUP - shows 520 EARTH version is cast |
| Stance defensive |
| Swing the weapon a couple dozen times - no "Fiery energy from your mage armor weaves itself into your spell, strengthening it!" messaging |
| STOP 520 |
| INCANT 520 EARTH |
| MANA SPELLUP 2x (to see if mana spellup was causing some issue) |
| Stance defensive |
| Swing the weapon a couple dozen times - no "Fiery energy from your mage armor weaves itself into your spell, strengthening it!" |
Issue only seems to come up when swinging a weapon after having 520 FIRE cast on you.
