Old Cleric bugs still?

I'm finding some buggy (or mislabeled) stuff that has existed for years now:

- Holy Power: This seems to do absolutely nothing? Neutral mobs are still half damage, outsiders still double. Unholy seems to bypass the evil DR correctly. However, this brings me to the next bug:

- Holy/Unholy Power states: "The spell Unholy Blight now deals its increased damage, regardless of alignment" - So wouldn't that mean it should do double damage to everything? Or is it just supposed to make everything "normal" damage, because that's what unholy seems to do. Tooltip error or damage bug?

- Fire Domain (and possibly others): The fire spell power does not seem to increase to my light spell power. (my Fire is at 170, and Light at 350.) Is this bugged, or does it just not display in the character sheet? I also find this feels slightly outdated for DDO now, and should also include critical chances, since the whole point of these domains is to make both types "paired", and not need 2 items.

- Scorching Ray: Most SLAs usually bypass anti-magic (from beholders), but this one doesn't. Intended?

- The listed damage in the description for the Unholy Blight SLA is displayed incorrectly.

Post any other cleric bugs or comments in here, and I'll update the list!

Thanks

The holy power bug is really old and has never been addressed. Also, the tooltip for Unholy Blight's SLA was (last I checked) showing incorrect damage numbers.

Afaik your spells use the higher of the two.
There is nothing saying that it increases your spell power in the character sheet.

Tooltips rarely explain every detail. That doesn't mean it's intended, or that it's a good implementation to begin with.

Maybe I'm misremembering this, but I thought something else out there (class or feat?) has a similar mechanic, and actually did reflect in the character sheet.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that one, I'll add it up top. I remember searching on that one, AFAIK it's just a tooltip display error, and the actual damage does the same dice as the other 3 types.

I know they don't like when bugs are grouped but...

Implosion:
Save not listed in tooltip.

Aid & Aid, Mass:
Bless portion doesn't scale like Bless. Only grants +1.

Panacea & Healing Domain SLA:
Doesn't proc extra healing with Angelic Form.

Positive Energy Burst:
Negative Level removal is blocked by Death Ward. (Neg Leveled → Death Warded → PEB → No Removal.)

I haven't seen them say that, but as a developer myself, I'd prefer to know if an entire class had 12 bugs, and not need to read 12 different reports (if they even read the reports.) Checklists should be tracked internally, regardless of bug report sources.

Torc specifically asked to not have big threads with tons of bugs, but to make reports for each.

That reply seems to be referring to random bugs spammed in the same thread though.

This post is a real bug report, which only contains cleric bugs. I don't see the problem if people mention more cleric bugs in this thread.

Tonquin, the person who fixes bugs, specifically asked for one bug per thread.

No... it literally says right there "each bug or small related list"

"than new threads for each bug or small related list of bugs."

Not to mention I just said this thread is for a real bug report with a ticket ID number attached, as they suggest. I posted this thread to see if players had anything to add or correct regarding cleric-specific bugs.
