View Full Version : Spell Resistance issues 3.5 Night Hag vs Vrock

G'day guys,

2 days ago I used Night Hags and Vrocks for a 3.5 game and when the Vrock fight happened their SR worked perfectly.
The Night Hags do not work out of the box though - no caster level checks rolling and damage from spells going to zero regardless of type.

I have noted that when dropped into the combat tracker the effect line includes IMMUNE:spell, which I believe is the issue with spell damage.
What I really can't seem to do is get the SR to work. I tried adding SR: 25 which did nothing. I also tried adding SR: 25 as a separate effect line to see if that made any difference - it did not.

Am I missing something?

Cheers,
Kronides

SR is not an effect. See the list of valid 3.5E effects here: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/index.php/3.5E_Effects

SR is a field available in the defence section of the CT once the NPC is added. Click the shield icon to access this section.

It's because the "spell" in spell resistance is being picked up as a damage type, since "spell" is a special damage type used internally by 3.5E ruleset to denote damage caused by magic abilities such as spells. I'll look into providing patch to fix automatic parsing of Night Hag and Azer.

As a workaround, you can remove IMMUNE: spell from their automatically added effects, and add the correct spell resistance to the SR field.
