Waspworts hit Jade Dragons and Poison them -160 Points.
Poison description says:
the target will be poisoned for two full turns taking earth elemental damage each time it would gain its turn.
But Jade Dragons are Immune to Earth. Things don't add up, or I understood it wrong?
Thanks. |
I think it could be some sort of bug. At first I suspected it was due to being venom and not poison, however I looked at the L21 hunts vs. poisoners and the Jade dragons took poison damage.

| Very strange. The description clearly says it's earth elemental damage and since they are neutrals they don't have piercing or anything to negate your immunity. Must be a bug. |
| I think it's because the spell has changed to Decay instead of Poison. Decay is Earth Elemental damage, while poison is just poison. |
| english description hasn't been updated in a long time,i suspect post 4 is true |
post 4 is most probably true.
poison is not decay. therefore, poison will affect those with earth elemental immunity.
but, we may need someone who knows russian to confirm the translation to determine whether it is a bad translation or something else |
Poison and Decay got changed long time ago.
Decay is Earth Damage, thus it affects Necros. Before it did not IIRC, correct me if Im wrong.
Poison now is just Poison and hurts you over time no matter what unless the victim is an Elemental or Necro unit (Undead).
PS: Yes, they should update translations. |
| But won't decay get it's damage raised from earth enchantments on rings/amulet? |
But won't decay get it's damage raised from earth enchantments on rings/amulet?
I think so, since decay is an earth spell. |
decay : earth magic damage, can be reduced or increased.
poison (or venom) : Pure damage, cant be reduced even with FSL. as a DE who use poisoners in some battle I can confirm this. the only way to avoid poison damage is elemental, undead, mechanical etc. |

Lol, didnt know this, thx. |
