Talk:Illusion of Weakness

I tested the effects of degen on Illusion of Weakness in the Isle of the Nameless, and contrary to the note in the article degen never triggered it to end. I have therefore removed the sentence implying that it would. — egads talk 10:55, 26 February 2006 (CST)
 * Makes sense since degen isn't damage. -PanSola 11:01, 26 February 2006 (CST)
 * True. I wouldn't put a lot of faith in the skill descriptions though. Divine Intervention heals if you would die due to degen despite "damage" being talked about in the description, for example. — egads talk 06:05, 27 February 2006 (CST)

Which kind of damage triggers Illussion of Weakness?
It is known that despite of reading in the description that when damage drops health bellow 25% the healing effect happends, there are some kinds of damage which do not trigger Illussion of Weakness, say: degeneration damage and sacrifice damage do not trigger it. Damage from attacks either weapon or spell attacks do trigger it. Now, I do not know for sure whether 'life stealing' and indirect damage like the damage triggered under Ineptitud which is not attack damage, or the damage coming from an area of effect spell which is not a direct attact damage do trigger Illussion of Weakness. It would be nice if someone could clarify this... {smile} It would be nice too if Illussion of Weakness worked as read in its description just for damage!--mariano 07:10, 5 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Degeneration isn't GW "damage". I would guess not on lifesteal &mdash; Skuld 07:09, 5 August 2006 (CDT)
 * I think that damage as well as skill in GW descriptions is used in more than one sense. In GW a spell is a skill in a general sense, and is not a skill in a typological sense. With damage it may be as well that it has a general and a typological sense. Now as mentioned above take the description of Illussion of Weakness and of Divine Intervention an look whether there is any clue to distinguish in which sense is damage used.
