there is a chance of dispel;
it happens before the cast;
the cast itself actually happens.

"Tier4 mana reduction is great" -- Me
Speaking of Tier4.
Since 'mana pulse' is subject to armor hindrance, and cannot be done during castRT, does it count towards the 5000-mana requirement for allowing the ability to be used?

This should now be resolved. It should no longer stop the spellsong from executing after the dispel flare and if renewing Song of Sonic Disruption (1030), it should only cost 10 mana.

Dammit, man!
If you keep coming through with cool updates like this on a Friday, I'm going to have to take back at least one or two of the things I've been saying about you!

(No, seriously: big "THANK YOU" for getting that squared away!)
.

And to be clear: I normally--because of being trained by Sonic Runestaff, which does not in fact go off "bang" for flares on "renew". So if you could see your way clear to fixing up that facet, too, that'd be great!--use "prep/cast" with Disrupt, not renew.
Either/both methods should charge the correct mana amount, now?

Estild, I hate to bother you again, but... :)
Since the Test server is still open, I went over there and took advantage of a whole metric potload of "healme" to get mana back to full, thereby letting me chew through hundreds of mana at a go.
These are my observations, please tell me if they are intended:
- As I commented previously, I normally do "prep/cast" for Disrupt, since I have been conditioned by the Sonic Runestaff's complete inability to flare from the 'renew' verb. (Please feel free to fix that while you're messing around, if you like.)
- I can state with absolute authority that Disrupt in this manner works to increase the count of "mana spent" through the Sigil Staff, for unlocking Tier3 (wave to dispel, requires spending 500 mana) and Tier4 (raise for -50% mana cost, requires spending 5000 mana) benefits.
* However, no OTHER BardSong appears to count for this. I tried multiple casts of "incant tonissong" (at 35 per), and long after the 14th one there was still no glowing sigil. I submit that "incant" should be perfectly valid for counting mana used towards those two tiers.
* I also tried "prep 1035/cast" a similar number of times--which absolutely should work, even if "incant" does not--and still no glowing sigil.
* And I have confirmed that "renew" does precisely nothing for "mana spent", even with a medley of 103 mana. (This was really easy to burn through 500 points with...)
- I tried testing with the 40-mana Troubadour's Rally, but that does not work at all with prep/cast. (No mana is used. The messaging specifically calls out use of "shout rally".)
I have no quibble with Rally not counting towards the pool. (Totally different verb, can be done while your head is too injured to cast.)
However, anything that uses "prep/cast" by specific input entry, should absolutely count towards the required pool. (Tonis.)
I feel this to be a bug.
Further, since "incant" is now a verb of long standing, I feel that using that should also count towards the pool. (Tonis again.)
I feel this to be essentially the same bug.
Bards don't have anything--yet--that uses either "channel" or "evoke", but I feel that those may need a looking at, as well.
.
I would really, really like for "renew" mana spent to count, also. (Since, as I say, using "prep/cast" with Disrupt--which are 10 mana, and by definition a renewal--absolutely DOES count already.)
However, I can also see that pretty easily circumventing the delay, just by sitting on a node somewhere while absorbing experience and blowing some "renew all" with useless spells up to jack up the medley amount. Adding armor, shield, and a dancing weapon just for the Renewal expense is pretty easy.
.
I await your analysis & response.

Estild, I just blew through a stack of Dancing Weapon/1025 (both with incant and prep/cast), as well as Elemental Targeting/425. (Easy spells to do in multiples of 100.) No glowing sigils on the staff.
Then I double-checked the GSWiki page, and confirmed that both tiers' description just say "spells cast," something that I have been taking at face value.
However, this may very well be "working as intended"...
... if you left out the word "OFFENSIVE" (i.e. being cast "at a target").

Sigil Staves will no longer lock scrolls when transferring a spell from the scroll. Instead, it will now reduce the value of the scroll, which controls how many times it can be infused. It reduces it the same amount as if you had manually invoked each charge to remove the spell from the scroll. Overall, the goal is to make Sigil Staves neutral when it comes to Scroll Infusion (714), offering no disadvantage or advantage.

"Tier4 mana reduction is great" -- Me
I am absolutely certain that you're tired of me being a pest about this...
...but shouldn't the Tier4 reduced mana effect, reduce the mana cost of casting?
(I was holding the +4 Aura bonus runestaff with mana flares to help with mana costs--and it worked, because the start/30 and one of the renewals/20 got flared while both were up, and then another single/10 with just the Emperor--and I see the Tier4 activate, and later I see it fall, but nowhere do I see my spellcasting getting clarified like I normally do with the effect running.)

WOW that looks really different without all the pretty color highlights....
I am absolutely certain that you're tired of me being a pest about this...
...but shouldn't the Tier4 reduced mana effect, reduce the mana cost of casting?
(I was holding the +4 Aura bonus runestaff with mana flares to help with mana costs--and it worked, because the start/30 and one of the renewals/20 got flared while both were up, and then another single/10 with just the Emperor--and I see the Tier4 activate, and later I see it fall, but nowhere do I see my spellcasting getting clarified like I normally do with the effect running.)

Estild, this morning I had some repeats of the "That does not seem to work." pop up again (see my message #12396).

"(Note again: NO SPELL is actually getting cast...)" -- Me
AND, the mana cost for this "no cast" is back up to 30 mana again...
.
Again: this is the "elemental flare" on the runestaff, which happens to be "Dispel" (rank 2).
The scripted Dispel (which should be 3 spells, for Sigil Staff Tier4) seems to be working just fine.
.
Everything was fine 24 hours ago when I ran through Reim.
Then the Bless changes and a bunch of other Announcements went through. I did not play last evening.
This morning... yeah, buggy.

However!
When the (elemental) Dispel flare happens on the (script T5) double-cast... only the 'normal' 10 mana is paid (because it is the first cast, which happens normally). So at least that part is working fine.

Actually, I think this is something from the flurry of changes that went in yesterday.
In fact, now that I think about it... since it is a fireleaf staff, it could very well be something from the "naturally Holy" effect kicking in, against Reim (== undead) creatures.

And I may have been maligning the Spirit Staff incorrectly: Luxelle just posted that she is seeing the same messages/paying the 30 mana for open Disrupt on a single cast (and not getting the actual cast) with her NerveStaff.
Which I find interesting, because my NerveStaff is working just fine with no problems, and definitely NOT giving me "That does not seem to work." messages/charging too much for no spell.

Okay... this seems to have been fixed between yesterday morning and this morning.
No more "That does not seem to work" charging 30 mana for what should be a 10-mana single-target cast of Disrupt, when the elemental (== Dispel T2) flare goes off.
.
BUT.
It seems to have now been broken the other direction: flares are now crap.
In the first 15 minutes of Reim this morning (as long as it took me to get the first two sections done, Village and Road), I saw a grand total of five (5) flares. Two in the Village, and three along the Road.
Given that for the last week, I have some times been seeing two (2) flares in three (3) casts--which cost me some mana, I can tell you!--this seems to indicate to me that, yeah, flares got broken, along the way of fixing the "That does not seem to work." issue....

Yeah, in the first forty minutes/six areas of Reim (killed the Jester, before the throne room) I think I saw my Mana Flare runestaff go off more times than the Dispel flares did...
...and I only switch them every two and a half minutes, in order to try to win the "35 mana (Free!) cast of Tonis" lottery with the Mana flare in-hand.
.

So one thing got fixed, but the flares are now busted.

Re: Sigil Staff Update -- ESTILD, it *is* buggy!

Flare rates AND mana costs appear to have returned to normal (i.e. "roughly what they were this a week ago before this all started").
Dispel flares fire off WITH a spell, that actually does damage, and costs only the single-target mana.
Frequency seems about right (to me it looks like "not often enough", but I still think in terms of "Sonic Runestaff" frequency [see what I did there?] and of course was recently spoiled by "five out of six casts flare with Mana Flare" yesterday).
And the Mana Flare itself appears to have returned to normal.

As much time as I spent banging this drum, I just wanted to circle back and say that when everything comes together, it really does work swell.
I think this is my fastest-ever kill of a berserk Empress, because--except for that one armor failure there--I got back-to-back (which I have seen before) -to-back (which I have NOT) double-casts/Tier5 flares from the staff.
And then another four casts just to wrap things up.
So, "Thanks, Estild!"
You raise your fireleaf staff high! Pale sparks jitter along its grain as sigils flare to life one after the other. Sharp lines of energy pulse in the air around you, the swift shifting of their patterns a dizzying yet curiously regimented dance. So invoked, the arcane energies continue to visibly flow about you even after you lower your staff.
