Blue Spritz Mount: +15 INT Not Applied to Damage

Celten · Feb 22nd 2021

Firstly, credits to cpa4989 for bringing this situation up. I tested this situation with the Essene Poyo with Mindbuster (non-crits only). Tested this with 4 situations (wearing same gears throughout, except when mentioned otherwise). Blue Spritz, Dragon, and Priest Pearl all offer +15 INT (and I chose Def Spritz and MP Dragon to avoid Magic % being involved in testing).

#	No Mount	Blue Spritz (Def)	Blue Spritz (Def) + Priest Pearl	Dragon (MP)
1	1582	1593	1652	1629
2	1583	1587	1640	1656
3	1571	1563	1645	1626
4	1573	1591	1636	1635
5	1570	1577	1636	1627
6	1578	1579	1646	1652
7	1583	1568	1658	1654
8	1580	1572	1632	1626
9	1571	1590	1626	1656
10	1581	1575	1634	1645
AVERAGE:	1577.2	1579.5	1640.5	1640.6

Even with the small sample size of 10 non-crit Mindbusters, the differences are obvious above. So as clearly seen, the +15 INT from the Blue Spritz isn't truly applied (same damage as if you had no mount).

Well damn.

Not all mounts are made equal... guessing that fact might explain why the Spritz ball felt a bit " Blue ".

I tested it myself on several versions of the mount and I can confirm that it does not increase INT. Other mounts, such as afriphant, does indeed increase INT, and thus, magic attack, as intended though.

So...any eta on a fix for this? I die a little inside each time I'm on my AM.

Also, we haven't tested it, but it does feel like the movement speed on the spritz is not applied, similar to the husky issue.

Sati would also like @el22's thread post regarding Obsidian Weight Mount to get attention.

I say, Nay! For every passing Day the mythical SpritzRiderz are held back from their full potential! Mages in their Final Form are essential! Though the Ball being Blue, does not mean it should Blue Ball the owners! Return thy Spritz to its former glory so the bouncing drivers may mow down mobs again like true Mob-Slaughtering-Lawnmowers!

I informed synex last week, but no reply. I can ping him every day, or better yet, every hour that its not fixed if thats helps

LOL - it's ok. I appreciate the update and confirmation that it has been passed along!

I will try to make my insides hold out for the fix.
