Boon of the Clear Mind

I can cast the single target version of Clarity on players in my group. Great!

However, I cannot cast the group version of Clarity (Boon of the Clear Mind) on my group because I get the error: "Your spell is too powerful for your intended target."

Why am I not allowed to cast Boon of the Clear Mind on my group? It only casts on myself (the enchanter).

I cannot find anywhere in the database to fix this. I even compared Clarity to Boon of the Clear Mind, but they have identical settings other than 1 spell being a group buff and the other being a single target.

In rules_values table:

Code:

Spells:BuffLevelRestrictions True

Set to false.

Thank you. So this is server wide? I cannot control it on a spell by spell basis?

Correct. The level restrictions are in the source and based on what live uses.

Lines 573-581 in spells.cpp

Code:

if (RuleB(Spells, BuffLevelRestrictions)) {

                // casting_spell_targetid is guaranteed to be what we went, check for ST_Self for now should work though

                if (spell_target && spells[spell_id].targettype != ST_Self && !spell_target->CheckSpellLevelRestriction(spell_id)) {

                        LogSpells("Spell [{}] failed: recipient did not meet the level restrictions", spell_id);

                        if (!IsBardSong(spell_id))

                                MessageString(Chat::SpellFailure, SPELL_TOO_POWERFUL);

                        return false;

                }

        }

And lines 3110-3139 in spells.cpp

Code:

// Check Spell Level Restrictions

// returns true if they meet the restrictions, false otherwise

// derived from http://samanna.net/eq.general/buffs.shtml

// spells 1-50: no restrictons

// 51-65: SpellLevel/2+15

// 66+ Group Spells 62, Single Target 61

bool Mob::CheckSpellLevelRestriction(uint16 spell_id)

{

        return true;

}



bool Client::CheckSpellLevelRestriction(uint16 spell_id)

{

        int SpellLevel = GetMinLevel(spell_id);



        // Only check for beneficial buffs

        if (IsBuffSpell(spell_id) && IsBeneficialSpell(spell_id)) {

                if (SpellLevel > 65) {

                        if (IsGroupSpell(spell_id) && GetLevel() < 62)

                                return false;

                        else if (GetLevel() < 61)

                                return false;

                } else if (SpellLevel > 50) { // 51-65

                        if (GetLevel() < (SpellLevel / 2 + 15))

                                return false;

                }

        }



        return true;

}}

Wow thank you for the detailed information.

I am so intimidated by code and I really want to be able to mess with things like that, but I am not confident in my ability to even get a custom server up and running from scratch, which is why I used the Akka repak.

I appreciate the info!
