I was unsure to where I should post this but anyway....

(Note) I've bug logged this before a few times.

Magma mephits can be targetted by far too many ways, oftenly causing inconvenience and confusion.

A magma mephit can be targetted at least by: Magma, Mephit, Small, Elemental, Fire, Familiar and the name you use for it. (Might be more)

What is the purpose of using keywords like, -small-, -elemental-, -fire- which can be very confusing? Isn't 'mephit' good enough?

Can someone please have a look at this?

This is a bug?

Probably the reason is because those are the keywords Nashira set the pet to.

It seems like it but still...Setting a demonlike creature with keywords like 'elemental' sounds a bit unaccurate and confusing. Even if Mephits are elementals in SK, such keywords might need to be revised when there is no other way to directly target a fire elemental.

I could tell you a work around, but then you would have to paypal me. Because I don't let people know my tactics any more, and so on.

That's what Ardith would have said! Image


Here's how you deal with the problem. Since mephits are elementals, that leave no corpse and so on, the full word elemental will have you target the mephit. However, simply ele alone will not target the mephit, but target all player created elementals.
