I have a problem.. i have a NS Lance with the standard health disease, and it also got a mindfire with 294 str, 89% pot, 40s dur, about 6k uses left now.

Ibought the lance about 3weeks ago i had no problem getting the flame to stick, but now it hardly sticks at all. The disease sticks with ease, but the flame is a problem.


I also have a LVA with mindfire, its only about 200str, 60% or so. But i have started to use this instead with greater result then the lance. It sticks in no time when i swing my pike with capped spd.

Mind that the lance has +7 rangemod, and the LVA -45 so its easier to hit with the lance, and greater potency also.


Anyone else that have this problem?


[edit] And the lance is in good condition, about 600/750 or so i belive.

don't use mutiple lances...or use the lance that does stick with it.

well, there is a known bug with getting mutiple DOTs to tick.


They will show up with icons, but there will be no actual damage done. I'm going to assume you are using other DOTs at the same time?

I have a 598 strmindpoison LVA that i also use, and the mindfire lance.


So when i try to stick the fire from the lance, its the disease that sticks and the mindfire stays out? (most of the time that is, not allways)

Strange that i never had this problem at all before, just recently started.


Is there a known way to counter this problem?

this problem actually been around for some months, i quit the game about three months back and it was effecting me.

It seems that for some obscure reason some mind fire lances won't 'match up' with some mind poison lances.

For instance i use 6mind poison lances in pvp, if i wish to use my mindfire i have to restrict myself to 4 of the aforementioned poison lances, for the other two won't 'match' and the fire won't tick.

Frustrating, as I c no rhyme or reason; u simply have to experiment with matching fire lances with poison lances to c what does or does not work.
