Peridot needed

A peridot is needed for this spell to work, but it will not consume the peridot. In that respect, it works just like Banshee Aura in which that level 16 spell requires a pearl to cast it but does not consume the pearl after casting.
Only in LDoN use?

Bought for 48 points in Butcherblock. Was hoping it was the 40 that's stated below. Does race differ prices?

Race does not differ price on LDoN spells.
Dot duration error

Lucy has bad math, Dark Soul = 6 ticks or 462 total dmg w/o any focus or extension. Do not reply and confuse people by arguing with this post until you cast the spell with dot dmg enabled and hand count the ticks.

Lucy dosent have bad math you dont understand how dots are calculated... lucy dosent count tick 0. 0..1..2..3..4..5 = 6 ticks
RE: Dot duration error

Sepron, you're partially correct. Lucy doesn't actually have bad math, and the spell can last for 6 ticks. Here's how:

The world (in-game) updates every six seconds...as such, any spell (buff, or otherwise) with a duration lasts a specific amount of ticks. The reason Lucy lists it as five ticks is that the spell itself actually runs for 30 seconds. The reason you'll sometimes get 6 ticks from it is because there'll be times where, mostly by luck, a spell is timed properly, and an "extra tick" occurs at the 0 second marker, just as the spell is wearing. So Lucy isn't actually wrong...although you can get 6 ticks of damage from the spell, on average, unless you get incredibly notorious about working the timing down to a science (which would reduce your effectiveness, because you'd constantly be holding off at the expense of "I need to time my spell right!"), Lucy always rounds down to take into account that unless something is specifically timed by the player, or just happens to be timed properly out of pure luck, it will last 5 ticks.

And you don't have to "hand count the ticks", for that. Heh.

stack??
# Oct 27 2003 at 9:22 AM Rating: Decent
does this stack with venom of the snake???
RE: stack??
# Dec 16 2003 at 4:32 PM Rating: Decent
This is a curse spell, yes it will stack with VotS being a poison spell.
RE: stack??
# Aug 21 2005 at 12:40 AM Rating: Decent
You're saying that as though poison spells won't stack. VotS stacks with Chilling Embrace.
RE: stack??
# Aug 30 2005 at 2:22 PM Rating: Decent
No, he is saying it as though a curse spell won't be blocked by a poison spell ... which is correct iirc ;)
Lovely spell
# Oct 12 2003 at 8:50 AM Rating: Decent
Beautiful spell. Good for the short lived group fight, not resisted often, cool graphic. Doesn't seem to draw much aggro yet, from what I have noticed. Good spell. Bought it for 40 AP from Butcherblock.
It is in game

I'm thinking this is a new LoY researchable or LDoN spell. Any help would be much appreciated.
ummmm
# Aug 11 2003 at 9:06 PM Rating: Decent
