Howland Keen Edge: duration is turn/levelThe spell Keen Edge currently has duration round/level which makes it kind of a waste of a 3rd level spell slot. Must be a bug.
Wrong spell duration
It is not a bug. The spell duration was reduced becuase it is very overpowering. Greater Magic Weapon is also reduced. The spells are still useful for a tough fight, and if you haven't, I would suggest reading the mechanics change post that contains the other spell adjustments.
Well, excuse me for posting, but the turn/level quote is from the mechanics change thread you refer to.
As far as being overpowered, I'd take a Haste, Slow or Fireball spell any day over a Keen Edge that lasts 5 or maybe even 10 rounds.
And finally, if it is meant to have duration 1 round pr. level then it should be made clear in the so mentioned mechanics post.
Ahhhh, that's what I get for talking about something when I haven't read it recently. It should be turn/level, so if you're finding that it's round/level, you were right in posting in the first place.
*slams head into wall*
No worries, perhaps I was unclear.
Looking at the spell script right now and I'm not sure what either of you are talking about. It should currently be turns/level. Are you sure that it's lasting for rounds/level?
Problem solved, now it IS turn/level.
The 15th of April, when I made the first post, it was round/level.
And if you think it's just me messing it all up, ask Coldburn [Michael De la Rey], who used Keen Edge in a party I was in a week ago or so; he too complained it was gone almost before it went active.
We'll place this in the EBKAC error file. Closed.
