    [​IMG] Every once and a while, my character, Julius Skull the fearsome skald in a bubble of cloak of mirroring, combusts. I haven't noticed any deterioration in my stats, and since i don't remember picking up any sort of hemmoroidal curse of the flame ass, I'm wondering if this is a significant concern, or my party decided to add more tabasco than usual to my enchilada.

    you mean when you leave an area? i dunno why that happens, is a right pain really! :mad: first few times it happened to me was after i had installed ToB and was running through hell again, thought they had added an extra baddie and started running around looking for them, casting detect invisibility spells... :hahaerr:

    This has happened to me all through SOA and Watcher's Keep (I'm not into TOB yet though, but I have had it loaded since the beginning of this time through).

    It looks like a fire shield-red, and I thought it was special....just for me. I'm kinda sad that everyone else gets this too! ;)

    Yeah, I never really found it annoying. I think its pretty funny, and in keeping with the pc's diabloic heritage (in a comedic sort of way).

    Hey, I do know that there's a 5% chance that your party will get struck by lightning during every rain storm, so maybe they can spontaneously combust too.

    That IS weird! Yes, i am referring to that particular moment when you leave an area... it's strange don't you think? No purpose whatsoever? I'll have to watch that Sarevok to see what he's putting in my food.
