Wrong ability descriptions?
 

Hi all,

for the ESO-Skillfactory we got some bug reports about wrong tooltip values. I've checked the values of Inner Light (https://www.eso-skillfactory.com/en/...ner-light/235/). As you can see the API reports Max Magicka is increased by 6% but the in game tooltip shows 5%.

I tried to fetch the description with this command and I also get 6%, does anybody know why the API is returning a wrong tooltip for the max rank?

Hi Keldor,
aaah you must be the dev Maggy talked about, when I reported this to her :)

GetAbilityDescription(40478, MAX_RANKS_PER_ABILITY) returns 5% in my environment. For every language.

the raw return:

Ah okay :D

I've tested this with some chars.

My Breton Necromancer has 5%
My Argonian Warden has 6%
And my Dragonknight Orc has 7%

:confused: :confused:

oh you are right, there is something strange -
Orc DK 6%
Orc Warden 6%

Argonian DK 5%
Highelf Mage 5%
Bretone Warden 5%

values without any addon

Any chance it's class or race perks modifying it?

I'm not sure, since that's not really clear from the Perks' descriptions.

Maybe the mages guild level changes the value somehow or were they all the same on teh different chars?
Or any of the passive values of the mages guild maybe though I only know the one increasing the time the ability is active.

Perhaps test this on the PTS with new created chars of different races and classes, no skill points set, just mages guild (bought by crown store if possible so the xp gained is the same on all chars).

I've tested this with a level 1 Khajiit Dragonknight. The tooltip text says 7% and this is my second account without any CP unlocked for all chars :)

Seems it's race / class dependent then. Perhaps ZOS_DanBatson is able to help/provide information here in the forums:

Ok, then I will open a new post there to see if there is a reasonable explanation for the fluctuations of the tooltip values ;)
