So self-casting Flame Shield would not cancel your own Spirit Tornado - only hostile effects can do that

Vanilla ST has no keywords - so there's no to cancel.

Apologies, I should have specified that I was talking about a hypothetical Frost-keyworded Spirit Tornado. This was in response to your and @Boeroer's posts:

Same thing would happen if you had Mith Fyr on you or a flame shield and then cast Spirit Tornado <edit>I guess</edit>?

Another example: Spirit Tornado. Ability have an attack with Freeze AOE and 5 status effects on char, lasting for 15 sec. Seems unfare if ST don't have a Frost KW, huh? And you can add it to ability, but then, whey you activate it, your char will be under affliction of status-effects with Frost KW for 15 seconds and this will counter any effects with opposite KW (Fire).

It would not be countered by any Fire-keyworded effect, only hostile ones.

It depends on Attack Filter in every status effects – if Attack Filter keyword section is untouched, then all effects are countered.

Anyway, i'll do a deep testing session about keywords and it's relationships (parent-child) on this weekend and i'll share my results.

No, that is incorrect.

This is what happens when an Attack's Status Effect(s) are applied to a target:

The game will iterate through each of the Keywords opposed to the Attack's Keywords (including the Keywords of its Status Effects) and each of the target's active Status Effects. If a Status Effect has any of the opposed Keywords, and that Status Effect's StatusEffectComponent.IsHostile value is not equal to the hostility of the Attack, then the Status Effect will be cleared from the target.

The Attack Filter is irrelevant to the behavior of the Keyword Counter mechanic.

You are free to open Deadfire's Assembly-CSharp.dll in dnSpy and confirm the StatusEffectManager.ClearOpposingKeywords method yourself.

[Phenomenum]

My apologies, you are right. Attack filter is used with immunity status-effects.

Yes, you are right. In any case, adding Frost kw directly to ability will be bad decision, even with hostile only, because i doubt, that ST was designed to counter anything).

I like the idea of scaling bashing shields, and think it should be so from the start.

And if you are ok with that, we could include it into a new and separate "MakersPack" sub-mod of CommunityPatch, which we might release in mid-late Spring. Of course: if and only if we will have enough of free time to implement it.

---

Also I'd like to double check bash shields stats:

The Best Defense:

• small shield
• attack time: 0.7s + 4.0s
• base damage: 7-10 pierce/crush
• base penetration: 8
• doesn't benefit from Transcending Suffering

Tuotilo's Palm:

• small shield
• attack time: 0.5s + 3.0s
• base damage: 8-10 crush
• base penetration: 7 (or 3 with adjustment)
• does benefit from Transcending Suffering

Magran's Blessing:

• medium shield
• attack time: 0.7s + 4.0s
• base damage: 11-15 crush/burn
• base penetration: 7
• doesn't benefit from Transcending Suffering

 

And for reference we have:

Regular Mace:

• attack time: 0.7s + 4.0s
• base damage: 11-15 crush
• base penetration: 9

Regular War Hammer:

• attack time: 0.7s + 4.0s
• base damage: 11-15 crush/pierce
• base penetration: 8

Regular Club:

• attack time: 0.5s + 3.0s
• base damage: 10-14 crush
• base penetration: 7

-----

I will need to think about this more; but at the moment The Best Defense shield looks like it could have it's damage increased (to match it's speed); but Penetration lowered by 1.

I think it should be hard to "penetrate" or "over-penetrate" with a shield.

I think it should be hard to "penetrate" or "over-penetrate" with a shield. 

Just my 2 cents, but Balance Polishing Mod tweaked Magran's Blessing and Best Offense to align their base damages with Tuotilo's Palm's. Tuotilio's is faster but is based on Unarmed which is also faster than regular 1 hander and requires a specific talent.

That leads 7-10 damages 7 PEN for both shields.

The only difference is that Tuotilo's scaling is based on Monastic Unarmed Training / Transcendant Suffering while the other 2 is based on (Noqn's) quality scaling.

(EDITED because I needed to remind the values and reasoning behind it)

Deal. I doubt that @MaxQuest have any objections. Yes, Max?

It's a COMMUNITY Patch after all.

I also downloaded and started to use Shields Bash Fix. Only Tuotillo adjustment is questionable: we might gather this shield very early, at lvl. 5-6 and at this moment Tuotilo's Palm looks worse than other bash shields. So i deleted penalties for the moment to play a while without adjustment. Still haven't strong opinion, but maybe penalties is too harsh... don't know.

I like that you brought The Best Defense and Magran's Blessing to the same values. But 7-10 feels a bit low for 0.7 + 4.0 speed. What do you think?

Several people asked themselves a similar question about Tuotilio's Palm DPS and came to the conclusion it was half way between DW Unarmed and Unarmed + (small) shield. That's because the main hand get a huge DPS bonus through DW speed increase.
I think this is a reasonable design and should be kept as a reference for all bashing shields.
That is what I call the "Tuotilio's DPS ratio" compared to DW Unarmed.

Unarmed has approximatively the same damages as a normal speed 1-hander (0,5 higher actually)

IMHO the DPS of "Normal 1-hander + Bashing shield" shall be equal to "Tuotilio's DPS ratio" x  DW Normal 1-hander DPS.
This target is reached by applying the same damages to bashing shield compared as Tuotilio's (0,5 lower actually, I've been a bit conservative because they have dual damage types).

The reason why it feels a bit low is because Normal 1-hander DPS is significantly lower than Unarmed DPS (4s recovery vs 3s).
Note that Unarmed has an significant opportunity cost : you need to be SC Monk and/or get a lots of PL Bonus to reach the same scaling as an enchanted item. This constraint is comparable for Tuotilio's compared to other bashing shields.

There are other subtle differences involved :
+ Tuotilio's can benefit from a Modal proficiency (relevant, but not that much except for fighters)
- Other Bashing Shields get Dual damage types (which is significant)

Maybe you'll find that my value is still a bit too low.
But I really thing that bashing shield should not have a DPS comparable to normal 1-hander.

Last night I dreamt about this (maybe because this thread was the last thing I read before going to bed) and in my dream Obsidian hired "the whole gang" as consultants for their next RPG.

You know for the next Pillars game (I feel it will come some day) we should really set up our own website/wiki.

Totally wrong. Period.

After checking again, it's not so simple.

 

The reason I believed that is because I tested Instrument of Boundless Rage with a +fire PL item such as Magran's Axe or Chromoprimatic.

The Fireball has the Fire KW, but not the ability itself (in order to prevent the initial attack to be resisted by fire immune).

I can confirm (just tested again) that the Fire bonus PL doesn't apply to the fireball.

 

But for some other abilities, it works. 

2.0 CP version of Spirit Tornado has added Frost KW on the Frost attack, but not the ability.

And it works perfectly fine : only the Frost attack benefit from +frost PL item.

 

So it depends.

 

I think it may depend whether the attack is the "main attack of the ability" in the Ability Gamedata file (in this case it works) or a subsequent one triggered elsewhere (in this case it does not work).

It depends of realization of PowerLevel status-effect.

1 variant: Power Level KW added directly to "KeywordValueID" section. This is how 90+ percent of Power Level status effects were made originally. And i suspect in this case they affect on keyworded ability, but not attack (if ability have no corresponding keywords).

2 variant: Only several status-effect were made by this way - when PowerLevel KW added to "KeywordValueID" section AND "AttackFilter" section. They should give +PL bonus to ability AND attack, even if ability has no corresponding keywords.

I need to check it (and for possible double bonus in case if ability AND attack have the same corresponding keywords). Then grab all "StatusEffectType": "PowerLevel" status effects and additionally add KW's into AttackFilter.

Original keyword system is a mess: if you receive +PL bonus you'll never know will it work with all abilities/attacks or don't.
