Subject: Spell Effect problems - maybe related to levitation bug


A high level magician friend of mine gave me a summoned ring of levitation
(whatever it is actually called) so that we might make the trip through nro
and oasis a little less painful (i.e. taking 30-40 points falling damage
while using accelerendo going up and down the dunes.) When I right clicked
on the item to activate the spell effect nothing happened. When I stopped
playing Accelerendo and tried again, it worked fine, and I resumed playing
Selo's without a problem.

Later I had some cast enduring breath on me, and when I tried to resume
levitating I encountered the same problem, but now since I could not drop
enduring breath, I was stuck on the ground.

Is this a known problem with item spell effects not working when you already
have spell effects active, or could it possibly point to something that was
changed in the levitation code or general spell behaviors and may be showing
up as a bug now?

Any info would be helpful,

> Greetings,
> first allow me to introduce myself. I am new to this list, but not a new
bard nor a new player to Everquest. I currently have a 31st level Bard on
Innoruuk, Rosha. I have been playing him since March 26th, just not in a
hurry to level.

song, the levitate one. Now when I play it, it starts, I rise, I get the
message I feel as if I am about to fall, followed by You are already
floating. This repeats for 2 cycles. Immediately after the 3rd cycle of
the song, I then fall to the ground, the icon disappears. On the next
cycle, it all repeats. It does this even if twisting, so it seems to me
that it now only allows continuos levitation for two song pulses. I did
just acquire this song, so I don't profess to be an expert, however, it did
not function like this prior to the patch. Just a word of caution using
this song now, and be on the lookout for other changes!!
