Mason's are unable to use shears anymore :( It says it's a class restriction although it still shows up in our Skill list.

Maybe not a bug but:
grass grown by bonemeal can immediately be broken for Exp by a farmer (whereas grass placed by the farmer has the normal 'no exp - block placed too recently' protection)


Probably not a Heroes thing, just weird:
sugarcane can be planed in water. Can plant it on any 'edge' block (that is 1 block higher than a neighboring block). If its in 1-deep water then it will grow. Any deeper and it doesn't grow taller
- may be worth looking into though as it possibly could cause lag?

Not sure if this is intended but UnholyRitual can be used repeatedly on the same summoned skeleton. It's basically a mana-battery you draw on until it returns to it's hellish dimension.



Actually the summon skeleton/unholy ritual mechanic, while a cool idea, feels clunky and not very useful.
- It needs reagents (bones) both to summon the skeleton and for UnholyRitual. Only a minor point but it's really frustrating when you summon the skele then get the 'you dont have the reagent to cast this spell' message for the UnholyRitual.
- The skele doesn't hang around very long, has difficulty following the necro, and isn't very tough (in pvp it's unlikely to survive long enough to be sacrificed)
- Given the above, plus the mana cost (40) to summon the skeleton in the first place it can't be used when you most need it: i.e. when you are low on mana!

possible alternative:
- Leave summon skele as it is - it's still useful as a combat ally (and it's just plain cool)
- Change UnholyRitual to be similar to DrainSoul i.e. does a small amount of damage to a target and gives the necro a reasonable mana boost. Perhaps doing 3 dmg and restoring 15 mana. With maybe a 1-2+ minute cooldown to prevent spam-casting.
I'd also suggest:
- Not requiring a reagent for UnholyRitual (tbh necro's seem a little handicapped by their need for reagents. they have 5 skills that need reagents while wiz/geo only have 2 that need them)
- Allow UnholyRitual to be used on the summoned skeleton but that breaks the binding and the skeleton attacks the necro >:)


[edit: Um - wiki says that UnholyRitual can be cast on any 'undead' (Zombies, skeletons, zombie pigmen) but in-game description says 'summoned undead' and a Zombie is an 'Invalid Target' - I'm confused as to how it's actually meant to work . . . ]

Not sure if intended but in MobArena a basic Rogue can use both the diamond and gold swords and get full damage out of them (I think it was about the same as Ninja/Thief).

Is IceBall(geomancer skill) intended to have a different trajectory than Fireball?
It has a noticably shorter range than fireball, like it is much heavier than fireball.

Think of it realistically - fire is technically a gas, ice is a solid, therefore ice should be more dense/heavy.

Not sure if this is intended however.

God mode for admins allows players to push the admins around, but the players don't get pushed themselves.

People that try to bring realism into a game made of blocks are really... I don't even have a word for it.

Probably already been reported, but my arena issues:

  • When I join the "dh" mob arena, nothing spawns and it boots me out
  • My inventory bring up a crafting window? I can't rearrange my action bar this way
  • Sometimes when I die the respawn button doesn't work and I don't move to the spectator zone. I have to relog, but then I lose anything I had in my inventory prior to joining the mob arena. However if I rejoin the MA, die, and am able to respawn, then I get everything back. HOWEVER, when i then use /ma leave it says I have left, but doesn't remove me from the spectator area. I tried to join another MA then leave, but it sent me back to the spectator area and changed my inventory to have only the items I won from the first MA.

@Alator to leave the MA, you have to specify which one you're leaving. If you do /ma leave dh it should work properly. :)

More arena bugs:

In MA Sandy, health doesnt update until after you take damage. If you go in with 1 heart, it shows 1 heart until you get hit. If you leave with 5, it shows 5 outside until you take damage again.

In Valor, some users are invincible. Cactus, lava, and mobs don't hurt them. In addition, while invincible, I was unable to target mobs with skills.

I think it is intended. I read somewhere that Icebolt is
the same as throwing a snowball. And that the range is
supposed to be similar. Im not 100% sure where I read tho

If a ranger hits a player with Arrowstorm and the player logs they arn't tagged by the combat logger and have no npc spawned in their place.

Here are some of the bus I noticed:
  • In the Sandy mob arena where I was invincible. Nothing could hurt me and I could easily kill the mobs. But it wasn't every time. I did the mob arena 3 times, only twice I was invincible.
  • Also, I noticed that zombie pigmen have a lot of HP. (I mean I stood there for what felt like forever trying to kill one). Don't know if this was a glitch or intended.
  • And finally, I noticed a lot of mobs get stuck in the corners at the Sandy mob arena.

300hp in fact. Take my advice: do NOT use any AoE's while in the nether ;)
