sanctuary not adding +% to undead

[vor_lord]

:lol: i'd like to say the exact thing about you.

what weapons, difficulty and targets did you use?

any data on # of hits required with and without it?

it hasn't worked with many different weapons, monsters and on all difficulties, so i'd just like to know when it does work.

As this thread was making me curious, I downloaded those same test characters. Then I took out the sazabi's set paladin, gave him 20 skill points in sanctuary and sacrifice, and headed off to the Hell blood moor. Once I realized he needed to distribute 300odd stat points I gave him enough life to survive at least one hit and enough dex to have a good AR base (seeing as he's nearly naked) :P

I hit zombies with sazabi's sword, with and without sanctuary. Sanctuary _seemed_ to increase the amount of damage quite significantly. By that I mean that the life bar moved much more visibly. I was using zeal, with maxed sacrifice and no aura when sanctuary was off. It's hard to say how much the damage seemed to improve, as even a single zombie in Hell is a formidable task for a nearly naked paladin who doesn't have much life.

Any better testing requires more time (i.e. more than your 2 minutes) than I'm willing to spend when I see no reason to doubt that sanctuary continues to work.

SeasOfBlood, why don't you supply your data, such as number of hits, etc.? If you do I'll try it again and count hits this time for both on and off (hopefully this nearly naked dude can live through it). Then maybe we can put this to rest.

If you give the rest of us a reason to believe you (so far all you've said is "it's obvious it doesn't work, just take a second to try it"). I've taken that second, and I'm not convinced. So please bring some numbers. The burden of proof here, or at least the burden of showing reasonable doubt, is on YOU. If you supply numbers, then I will also try the same. If my testing holds up your hypothesis, then you might draw the interest of those serious enough to do real testing and find out the root of the problem.

You're certainly not helping convince anyone to help you figure this out when you antagonize WarBlade. He's a regular poster here and quite an authority on paladins.

Oh--I should have gotten the Griswold paladin. What was I thinking? <_<
