Fix Illithids w.r.t. PC summons?

[visaris7]

Firstly, I want to say thanks for such a great module, server, and community!


Second of all, is there any chance a dev would like to take a look at the illithid mind-control code just a bit?

When one of my lvl 40 PMs with the epic summon fails a will check and becomes mind controlled, the PM will drop party and attack others just as one would expect. However, that PM isn't going to be doing much against the party when the big pet is just standing around, doing nothing like a big fat idiot...


Summary:

When a PC gets mind controlled by an illithid, I think the PC's pet should be fighting for the illithids as well, instead of simply standing about.

I can see how that might make sense, if the illithid areas were too easy or something, but I certainly never got that impression in there, in fact it's tough to get people to agree to party there already. On the list of things I would like to see tweaked on NS4 that would be so far down the list it would probably never get done lol.

I think that when your character gets controled by ilithids, you should be controled by ilithids too and get up from your chair and attack people in your house.

That's what I do.

I just gotta see this.. do you accept pets?

[VagaStorm]

I think that is a pm gets mind controlled, the summon should auto target him. I'd love to see a pm beaten to death by his own summon....

Illithid gaze ever get fixed to respect mind immunity? (20+ monk levels)

[Daltian]

My monk seams to be immune. Always asumed it was immunity, never ocure to me it could just be will save.

Btw, didn't psionic powers ignore immunities?

[Korr]

Not that I recall they didnt. But then again are you talking 3.0 or 3.5 psionics (WORLDS apart) lol.

What I remember bringing my monk down into illithids is that I wouldnt leave party and all that jazz but still got the cut-scene like I was dominated (so I couldnt do anything at all). Been a while though and I asked about it way back when, was just curious cuz this thread.

[MLoki]

Sometimes just letting the devs know something doesn't work right, they get right on it. Other times you get the AO jobs "Soon".

-Fixed the illithid/umber hulk psionic attack from trying to control (dominate) someone who's immune to mind spells (like Monks with 20+ levels). Dominated player's summons should attack now too.

Come on that is horrible, especially coming from you.
