Magic Reflect items using too many charges
Magic Reflect items using too many charges
REPORTED ISSUE: Magic Reflect items can sometimes consume too many charges
ISSUE DETAILS: I had a magic necklace of spell reflection (16 charges) and set up a Dress outfit for it. I assigned a hotkey to toggle it, and just wanted to test it. I hit the hotkey and the necklace popped on, and then I hit the hotkey again and the necklace was removed. I clicked on the necklace again and it only had 14 charges remaining. I know at the time, I did not have the Magic Reflection spell active, if that matters.
ENVIRONMENT DETAILS: In my house by myself
STEPS TO RECREATE: See above.
EXPECTED RESULTS: I expected 1 charge to be used up. It appears to me that normally, when you use a magic reflect item, you will use 1 charge upon putting it on, 1 charge every 5.0 seconds, and 1 charge every time a spell is reflected with it. However, I had this necklace on for about 1 second, and did not reflect any spells, and yet still 2 charges were used.
DATE REPORTED: 9/23
STATUS: Fixing
DATE STATUS CHANGED:

This has been reported before but not so officially. Thanks for this.

Re: Magic Reflect items using too many charges
Just had a 18 charge reflect skirt off a Tchest.
Naked, i cast MA on myself to make sure. I put it on, and sure enough, it said "17 charges"
I took the skirt off and it now reads "14 charges"
Please note that i did not cast any spells on myself, only took it on and off one time...

Re: Magic Reflect items using too many charges
A charge gets consumed somewhere around every 5 seconds too.

Re: Magic Reflect items using too many charges
I lost 1 charge for putting it on and 3 for taking it off. It went from 18 (or 17?) to 14 in 3 seconds.
Re: Magic Reflect items using too many charges
This is true if you keep the item on and never take it off until it's out of charges. But I too have been seeing some weird things with charges getting used up when it gets put on and taken off quickly.Faust wrote:A charge gets consumed somewhere around every 5 seconds too.
Re: Magic Reflect items using too many charges
Didn't see any time reference in your previous post and assumed that you may have just kept it on for that long consuming the additional charges.SoundofGod wrote:I lost 1 charge for putting it on and 3 for taking it off. It went from 18 (or 17?) to 14 in 3 seconds.

Re: Magic Reflect items using too many charges
I also noticed when using MR items that an item with 22 charges got used up unusually fast. I definitely did not equip it for 110 seconds, more like 30.
I equipped, got cast on about 5 times and deequipped about 30 seconds after equipping. I didn't look at the item at that point, but next time I equipped it, I did not reflect anything.

Re: Magic Reflect items using too many charges
UPDATE:
Just so i wasn't full of it, i re-tested it.
Skirt of Spell reflection, 14 charges
I clicked it to read the charges.
I equip'd it for less than a second as i read the charges (13)
i took it off in less than 2 seconds total and now the skirt says 12.

Re: Magic Reflect items using too many charges
If you want to save yourself the charges you're losing you can just try it on test center too. The same problems occur there.
Re: Magic Reflect items using too many charges
Sounds like equipping and unequipping is consuming a charge.
I know it's suppose to consume one during the equip process but not entirely sure about the unequip process.
