Enchanter level 1 spell Minor Illusion

[GlassDeviant]

I've been using this to train Divination, and from level 2 through 40 it has only actually worked twice (as in the illusion lasted more than a split second). Is this WAI? I didn't play Enchanter much before in EQ, so I am not sure if it was ever at all useful for anything but training Divination/Spec. Divination (for which it works great).

Anyway it serves my purpose so it's not an important fix, but if anyone gets a moment and if my thinking it should work a little better turns out to be accurate, it might be worth poking at for a minute.

As far as I know it should last the full duration or until clicked off. However in spells_new its set to buffdurationformula 3, which is somehow level based.

Subtle Illusion (ID: 37926) appears to be doing the exact same thing so it would appear to be the effect that is somehow broken. I am not having any issues with Treeform or any similar illusion spell.

Set spell to buffdurationformula 11 (Which means it should just return the duration) and it still behaved in the exact same way (lasts a split second).

Edit: Just seen that noudess added this as a bug back in April.

Yeah most of the time it flicks on then right back off, but twice it lasted a long time, out of however many times I cast it between level 2 and 40.

I've since stopped using it and train Divination using a rota of 5 race illusion spells on a single hotkey, not for any particular reason other than it's less boring to watch. It was also interesting to see which illusions superceded the others. It used to be (in live, iirc) that a higher level illusion would overwrite a lower one, but that's not the case in the emu. I had to swap the order several times to find which ones to use to make sure I would get all 5 changes. Not that it affected the skill ups, just for aesthetic/boredom reasons.

Edit: Is that Subtle Illusion) only on the one clicky item? I can't find a spell scroll for it.
