I'm Unable to Cast Debuff Spells on My Pets

[Eric Ravenwind]

I wanted to train my pet's resisting spells up, but I cannot cast the debuff spells on it. I'm guilded. Told it to guard me. Tried in and out of town, but nothing seems to work.

Any help?

Is it green or blue

May seem obvious but occasionally my pets will turn blue to me so I can't discord/cast on them.

I tried it when it was both colors and no luck either way.

Try doing it in Fel. It should work there.
What exactly is the problem though? Is it not letting cast the spell on them or is the spell not affecting them at all?

the spell fizzles everytime.

 

[Max Blackoak]

how about you stone off eval int? then it will not fizzle anymore (actually it's not a fizzle - the sound simply indicates that it is already debuffed) and you can cast the same debuff over and over until it is at 120...

It's because stat-reducing spells don't effect pets anymore if eval's not high enough, it has 0 effect on stamina,hp, mana, though int, str, dex are reduced slightly, they Still gain resist skill from it being casted on them though, despite the spell "fizzling".

Use paralyze, mana vampire is ok too

So when i hear the spell fizzle, the pet still gets struck by the spell, and resisting spells will go up?

Correct, the fizzle sound still goes off, but the pet can still gain resist from it.

Ok, cool! ty

I got resist spells gains easily enough just parking my pet in the small orc fort next to the mining caves on the Umbra/Luna road (though any of those forts in Malas would work), and let it go to town on the occupants. The orc shamans didn't last long, but they came along quick enough. That's and training up the other skills against crazed mages got a lot of RS gains.
