Ok, we all know that an ethereal item will make an iron golem look ethereal, right? Well, what would happen if the chance to cast fade was activated when the Iron Golem is already ethereal. For those that do not know, fade gives the caster the visual effect of being "ethereal". Now, how would this effect a golem that is already ethereal? Just curious. I myself do not have an ethereal Spirit Ward, but if anyone does find one (as I'm sure they are worth nothing), I think some testing is in order. If I find an eth Spirit Ward myself I will do the testing.

I'd assume it keeps its ethereal look. It's probably not gonna be invisible or anything :/

Etherealizing something that's already ethereal?

Anope, I don't anything will happen, but please get some screen shots if you notice anything! I wouldn't mind being wrong as long as I get to see PICTURES.

I would like to see if anything happened too . I doubt anything will, but AFAIK this hasn't been tried before, so who knows

I'd assume that it'd be like what happens when an Assassin with full Nats uses fade: nothing.

I'll assume NC will get his lazy arse on D2 and get a eth spirt ward...

Easy. Anyone playing single player can test this. I have a file containing almost all the decent items in the game etc ... so all one has to do is pull Spirit Ward from the stash, add it to your Necro char via ATMA and IG it and play for awhile and see what happens.

Maybe i'll do that tonight and post a screenie ... if i'm awake.

Just a thought.

 

[Necrochild313]

I have that pack too bill_n_opus, but there is no ETHEREAL spirit ward

*kicks slipin*

 

[Slipin]

maybe I should get off my lazy arse and play D2 again :cheesy:

Spirit ward cannot spawn ethereal. It has the indestructible mod on it. Makes a nice Bear ghost though.

It does? Why is that not listed on either the Summit or Diabloii.net?

Ward's are inherently Indestructible just like Phase Blades. That's news to me but I just checked it on a Ward for sale in a game.
