Evil Omen

From UO:PvE Wiki

Temporarily sets the target’s Resisting Spells to half its current value. The executable code halves the skill; its older comment claiming a fixed value of 50 is inaccurate.

Development source reviewed on 29 October 2026. In-game availability is unverified.

Effects and formulas#

  • Temporarily sets the target’s Resisting Spells to half its current value. The executable code halves the skill; its older comment claiming a fixed value of 50 is inaccurate.
  • Lasts school-scaled (Spirit Speak / 12 + 1) seconds or until a consuming harmful event. Normal damage consumes it for +25% incoming damage; applying poison consumes it and raises the poison by one level.
  • Pain Spike consumes the omen without the +25% damage increase on a player. Creature damage handling does not honor that ignore flag and still applies the increase.

Notes#

  • Magery–Necromancy school conflict can reduce the effects identified as school-scaled. Listed mana and cast delay are base values; equipment and casting rules modify actual costs and timing.
