Re: Midget Masher
My first MP game back in cbm 1.6 had me test out 2 midget smasher to counter Eriu glamour thugs. They did not pop the mirror image.
I then made a test game and tested midget/ice/fire brand on non-immune mirror image thugs (all 0 prot air queens if you're curious, loaded with dual parrying knife and cat charm). notably, they also did not pop images or mistform. It took 10+ rounds before mist+image is popped in some cases.
I could only conclude that getting hit by an AoE dmg effect from a weapon goes through a physical dodge check (rather then AoE auto hit), but in actuality I don't know what the exact mechanic happening is. I assume but am unsure if things like shadow brand or stone sword works via a different mechanic.
If some vet can enlighten me that'd be great!
