-Rcol stats on Monsters ignoring weapon spells?

[schwagg]

In an effort to test if the cold damage from my ethereal sabre was being amplified properly by -rcol values on monsters, I looped the Lava Fields for awhile today. It appears that the damage is not being amplified properly from the the -rcol on monsters here. I don't have an available character to test some basic cold spells (ie frost jet), so I can't say for certain whether cold damage from direct spell attacks is being amped or not. We can see from some of the rounds I've pasted in that the hit spell (Ice Freezes #978) is not hitting for any more than it's base value of 5-15. All monsters here have a minimum of -50 rcol, with one having -75.

With this being established, we can likely assume that at minimum, other weapon's spells are not being amplified by the -resist values of their respective element.

It's possible that the damage is being modified, but not displayed in the message you see.  When Russel and I were testing mage combat spells we saw a great deal of this.   He would see a message that reflected the full amount of the hit, while my message  showed adjustments for resistances and whatever.

[DeathCow]

I know I saw plenty of fire hits go off on deathcow with 200 rfir. Never bothered to add it up and see if i was hurt.  I know I did kill gnaj without him doing any damage though.
