Subject: RE: Z-axis bug


I agree that it is most likely a bug but mentioned the possibility of it
being a feature just in case.

One other thing I forgot to mention is that I have only noticed this bug
when singing Denon's Disruptive Discord. When I sing the Lullaby or Largo's
Melodic Binding in Unrest, they only seem to affect the creatures nearby and
fortunately not the hag in the basement. Is this because the area of effect
for these two songs is smaller than Denon's and thus not reaching the hag?
