Barbarian Zealot Divine Fury Effect

[Halgabron]

Hello FG Forum Folk - I'm trying to create an effect (similar to Sneak Attack) for the Barbarian Zealot's Divine Fury but getting in an awful pickle!

Has anyone else had any luck? This is how far I've got but I'm missing something - can someone check my homework?

Try DMG:1d6,[HLVL];DMGTYPE: radiant

[Halgabron]

Marvellous, thanks Zacchaeus as always - I'd forgotten to set the targeting to 'self' as well which wasn't helping!

It all works now.

[Nylanfs]

isn't it radiant?

[Zacchaeus]

isn't it radiant?

Yes, I misspelled it ok?

[Sigreid]

Thanks for posting this. One thing though, I have tested it a few times and it seems that the damage from Divine Fury doesn't calculate as radiant. can the engine not support a separate damage type?

Hi sigreid, welcome to FG. The answer is yes FG will recognise radiant as a damage type. See the attached graphic you'll see that the beastie resisted the radiant damage, so FG definitely recognised it.

If you aren't seeing this perhaps you've not done something quite right. Check that your effect is exactly as noted above (including spelling radiant correctly )

I thought I had it right, but clearly don't. When I do the damage with the great axe it only has the damage type slashing, but it does roll the extra die and add half level. If you can see what I'm missing I'd really appreciate it! I'm really new to trying to set things up in FG.

Edit: Looking at your image I notice that the math works out to resistance having been applied to both types of damage even on yours. Was that expected?

[Zacchaeus]

DMGTYPE changes the damage to that type; so no matter what other type you do all the damage is treated as radiant in this case. Hence all of the damage would get resisted if the beastie has such resistance. (I gave the Mind Flayer resistance to radiant damage just to make it clear that the radiant bit was working in the graphic that I posted).

I don't see anything wrong with your effect. If it isn't working then I'm not sure why; especially if the extra d6 and half level are being implemented. If you could provide a screenshot of your CT and the chat line that might help me to pin point the issue.

Here's the CT and Chat Window. I selected the Wraith since it has resistance to normal damage and vulnerability to Radiant.
