Very annoying blue spark effect

Print Post  
With my main char Aubri, this weekend I noticed a very strange blue sparking effect that flashes in the front of my char constantly every 8 seconds.



I could not SS it very well, but when viewing it, it seems like a shield of some sort briefly popping into existance, then disipating in a shower of blue sparks.

I am fairly certain it is not buff related as it starts as soon as I log into my char. It triggers in quest/raid/wilderness and in town areas.

So, can anyone tell what it could possibly be? Not that it is hurting anything by any means but it is starting to get annoying and distracting as my eye is drawn to it now every time it triggers.

Thanks,


Kit

it usually means someone/thing is shooting at you and you're immune

It is normally a Repeating Disease (Mummy Rot) When you have a disease immunity item on. Every so often the timer pings and the Disease Immunity prevents it, but because you don't get a saving throw it never goes away.

To fix: Die once. It should wipe it off your toon.

Mmm, interesting. As a Pali-rogue I should be naturaly and automatically immune to all disease effects, but I can imagine Turbine screwing up yet again, and I have some non-shown disease effect pounding away at my class immunity for the last 48 hours.

Ah well, I am certain I will die from something eventually, I do really hope that fixes it.

Thanks all

Type /death in a tavern (assuming you care about repair costs) or use the pot combo I mentioned. See if it works.

As a Pali-rogue

Sounds to me like an "immune to the aura of another" (or immune to your own as someone else has one more powerful).

My bet would be...

Reaction to one of the buffs you have with paladin aura...

or

You just ran Crucible and the poison key effect never went away...

Well, I tried cure disease, pancea and unyeilding soverignty. I unequipped my proof against poision item, and still that blue flash is there.

It probably will disapear on death, that usually resets everything. If not, well then I have a nice long future ahead of me on Argo as "that sparking halfling" Grin

Mummy Rot is only cured by Remove Curse and then Remove Disease, in that order.

People I really don't like here list is small.  Not that you or anyone should care, but for me it is Calvet, because he's stupid in a bitchy drama way, and Breaken, but he is a liar and a blunt, inelegant angry guy
