Strange blue lightsFollow

#1 Jun 15 2005 at 12:12 AM Rating: Decent
So, I'm running home to rivervale to complete a task and as I come down the hill on other side of pok stone there is this blue light coming up from the ground. Looks like a spell affect of some sort. but no one else close to me on track, or anything out of the ordinary. I poked around with eq2 for a bit and they had something that looked similar. Has anyone else seen this in misty thicket or elsewhere? I took a coupple screen shots, been there for 10 minutes now. Lol, never seen anything like it before in the zone.

Edit: Loc is -112,-1674,36

I've seen this bug a lot with the first and second veteran rewards. When activated, they give your character a glow effect, that sometimes gets "stuck" in a certain spot (seems to happen to me if I sit and med for a little while). Then when you move the glow stays where you were until the buff runs out.

Some spell effects, including the veteran rewards, seem to "lose" you when an illusion is cast on you. When that happens they just stay in the spot you were standing instead of sticking with you.

I can confirm this. Just 1 hour ago, before the server downtime, I used Lesson of the Devoted veteran reward on my Necromancer, cast Lich (Skeleton form) and my blue glowie stayed in one place for 30 minutes and not on me.

Hehe, makes sense I suppose. I must have looked pretty silly looking at this spot last night. It was gone when I passed through sometime later. Really got my curiosity going at the time though. :)

Can confirm - it's a bugged vet reward.

I haven't been playing long enough to get a veteran reward, but I can confirm this as well.

If I'm in the "hot tub" in the guild hall, I can cast bear form and when I move, the "strange blue lights" continue to hover where I was standing previously.
