Dispel Evil bugged?

[Pinco]

I see that dispel evil dont make monsters flee anymore... it's a bug or I need lot lot lot more karma (more than glorious)?

Maybe it's bugged. How high is your chivalry?
Can't go above glorious level karma. You can still gain karma depending on the level of the creature, but that wont do much else other then secure that level of karma even more.

actually I tried it with my rpg char with 120 chivalry at glorious karma...
the monster that I try to make flee is a stupid skeleton in old haven, but lizardman wont flee too...

Is it just Haven, perhaps?

lizardman was in despise... the only thing that seems to do this spell is dispel revenants...

Huh... I used it all the time in Doom to give myself a short reprieve and it worked well for everything except the DF. It's been a few months since I've used it, but it worked just fine once upon a time... maybe broke now? I'll have to give it a go later today to see.

yea i kno dispel evil never used to dispel reve's on me for some reason but it would scare other monsters, had glorious and 120 chiv. now it works like a charm on reve's but i cant scare any baddies. perhaps when they fixed the dispel aspect it broke the scary ability

I've noticed that too.

Personally I preferred the "turn monster" ability to the "dispel rev" ability, so if it's actually one or the other, I'd go for how it was.

I was used to not actually being able to dispel anything.

They should definitely at least tell us if the present situation is what they intended. I.e., should we be reporting this as a bug, or discussing it as an intended change we happen to disagree with?

worked fine for me for awhile but when i dispelled a revenant,cast on me by a lichlord, it stopped working for scaring mobs away. its been like this for a couple months now, know of several with same prob.

I thought it was purposely changed to this recently?

(i.e no longer making everything run around randomly and now working as an area dispel)
