Talk:Spirit of Failure

So will this work when you "block" an attack (i.e. Distortion)? In a way it still did no damage and is therefore missed, right?
 * Yes. Read the description closely and you'll find it expressly says so. -- Serps 14:23, 30 October 2005 (EST)
 * Well, I was thinking maybe it only works when foe misses from blindness or the 25% from this skill.
 * Does blocked count as failed to hit? I thought it did not. --Karlos 21:08, 30 October 2005 (EST)
 * Are you being sarcastic? Because I really don't know if a block/evade counts as missing...
 * Serps was being serious, since the description says "fails to hit" and not "miss" as the condition. I did a quick test anyway with distortion (evade) and magnetic aura (block) against the doppelganger and every time he didn't hit I gained energy.  So, unless every time he missed it was due to the 25% of spirit instead of the 75%s of the other two, "fails to hit" really does mean "attacks but did not hit."  To Karlos, I don't think it makes sense (in English) to say "I hit him but he blocked it."  I don't know if anything in game to suggest otherwise, especially since spirit counts blocking as not hitting.  --Fyren 09:40, 31 October 2005 (EST)
