...the Asmodeus Artifact Gloves.
I assume its intentional, and thus I don't put it in the bug forum, that the spell cast at level 60 level has a Spell Penetration of...60.
Frankly, thats terrible. And entirely useless for hell creatures balanced for a 66-68 spell penetration. (Or for PMs, SP of 76ish yes?)
And for most hell creatures that Negative energy works well on, they have a higher than average SR - Cornegons and Nazugons I'm talking about specifically here - so even if they were morded, it STILL wouldn't work.
Since this is an Asmodeus artifact, I would humbly suggest that the Spell Penetration check be removed entirely (if possible). That way the non-caster types that win this artifact (like, thusfar, all of them in game) have a fighting chance of using the effect in a useful fashion.
If thats not possible, or too powerful, could instead the caster level be raised to 75-6ish? That would give a fighting chance of hitting some of the things intended for PMs, which are thus vulnerable to negative energy in the first place.
Since, while I know there are lower SR things out there, the overwhelming majority of them are highly immune if not completely so to neg energy in the first place, which renders the glove effect...rather ineffective.
