Event Bug for Revenants (Tram)

@Kyronix- There appears to be a bug where mages cannot dispel or even damage revenants that are cast from Undead Gargoyles or LL at all during the town invasion.The result is that they continue to beat on you until they time out (long after the monster is dead) wearing down my suit and interrupting my spells.

The only way to get rid of them is to recall off server and back in which is kind of frustrating.

    Pally can despell tamer can have pets guard them .this was brought up in testing with no change so I assumed it was intentionally left in
  • It appears to me that only the person a rev is summoned on can dispel it.

    I mentioned that revenants are on speed now. I think that thread got closed.

    Yes only the person who they were cast on can dispel.
    They can be damaged but not so much with your fire weapon.

    So they were changed for this.  I new I wasn't crazy.  Wrong word choice maybe.

    This is incorrect. I am telling you that I am being cast on directly and I cannot dispel. So it's following me around for 2-4 minutes hitting me while the gargoyle who cast it is long dead. Again I've tried dispel and mass dispel but get the message I cannot do that. The only "fix" for this is to recall/gate to a different town.

    I dispel them when they are cast on me. Oddly they don't  make my Chiv spell get interrupted. They go up in a black tornado.  But I can not dispel the ones cast on other players.

    Sorry u can't.

    Ok... getting back on track and not having my thread closed because it's still an issue for me....

    I am having revenants cast on me and I cannot dispel them (dispel or mass dispel).... I just shut down UO (it's been open since event started) and restarted and there was a small patch it appears. I'm hoping this is a fix for me and the reason I wasn't able to dispel/mass dispel revanants casts on me.

    After seeing a group of 3 "bots" staying in one place and hearing the WW sound over and over.
    I noticed there was a Revenant there that they could not kill, they did start moving again but the revenant followed them and they continued attacking it until it went poof.

     :D Maybe an accidental Bot determent?

    Recall out of the city and then dispel or kill it.  Works for my mage.  I just recall home and dispel it there.  Mass dispel does not work in the Trammel town being invaded,  Would think this would work with melee fighters, but have not tried it with one.

    Are you having trouble dispelling your EVs still?

    I dispelled them in Vesper this morning while invasion was going on.
    With both spells.

    I have not had a revenant on me for a long time.  But I did dispel one or two a few days ago.
    They were cast on me.  I can't dispel them if cast on another player.

    Bot deterrent or not, its messing with my targeting and a Samp lives, and dies by the tick. It's getting really old really fast eating a death because I can't stop targeting the damn Rev who moves faster than every non-paragon enemy. Dispel Evil is not an option, 60 Chiv will not cut it nor can I spare anymore points on Chiv. Just let me hit the damn thing like I can with EVERY OTHER Rev in the damn game. I know it wasn't an intentional bot deterrent, but I would much rather the Dev team do their damn jobs than rely on an unintended consequence that makes things even more miserable for everyone else.

    You can hit them in Fel. It’s not at all intentional (if it is, it doesn’t work). It’s just some oversight with them in Tram.

    You are right “just another oversight” which has now become the norm for UO.  Still not working in Trammel.  Best defense is to recall home and kill them there. Mass dispel works in nonevent areas.
