Didn't there used to be a bug on necros where if you stacked way over cap on pierce (like 39%+) it would work in pve even?

Not that the info does much good, but was just curious.



I think the most spell pierce you can get is like 35%. Most of the items with spell pierce share slots.

MW3 wasn't spell pierce. That was just plain old spell ignore. Big difference there. Dear lord do I miss that on my eldritch too, though. Nothing like nuking purples like they were a grey.

We meant deliberately overcapping spell pierce to force a rumored bug (which may or may not exist). If you grabbed every piece of pierce gear you could you could go about 20+ % over the cap.

I never tried it myself because I didn't care about it enough and the rumor I heard back then was it only worked on necros anyway (I am guessing the coding with the pet getting gear stats had something to do with it in theory)

Quote from the latest Patch Notes: http://darkageofcamelot.com/article/pendragon-patch-notes-1112
"Necromancer
Bug Fixes
Necromancer pets are no longer affected by resist pierce bonuses beyond the 10% cap.

Animist
Bug Fixes
Animist pets and bombers are no longer affected by resist pierce bonuses beyond the 10% cap."

Apparently there was something to the theory...

BTW~ Where the hell are you Pent???
