Yeah. I didn't believe this "rumor" back when I was doing Gold Hill but it's pretty obvious when I'm trioing with a mage and a cleric. =/ Now I just try to wait to cast Bone Shot after the mages cast their lightning skill but... hard to break a habit.

I'm just wondering why it cancels bleed...

**Ralath** · 02-14-2008, 06:04 AM

If I were to guess, I would say that it's because of Lightning's missing effect and Bone Shot's screwed up effect. Loveless could probably tell us better but I bet in BK or KFiesta, Bone Shot and Lightning had similar effects so that using one, cancelled the other one out. Now, in OFiesta, we can't see those effects but are still left with the cancellation thing.

(My theory.)

But bleeding and illness both have the same effect, (dealing damage over time), and in the video, the illness wasnt cancelled by bone shot or lightning, and only bleeding was cancelled?

I guess its just a bug... I dont see how running a strong current through a person will heal bleeding... (dont try that in real life, the test subject will probably die)
