Im not sure if it is specific to this mob, but when the mob fails to turn me i still suffer abit of dmg.
This happened a few times but so far ive only noticed it from twisted shamans.

Scratch that..
Seems like a bug with turn in general?

Seems to me like a bug with the special attack output text on save.

So you succeed a saving throw against turn, which means it'll do half normal damage - i.e. half of half of your health.

However, the problem is:

Target String: ^r*ATTACKER* turns you!^x
Target Save String: ^c*ATTACKER* failed to turn you.^x

That means that when you save it, it outputs both messages. One possible fix would be:

Target String: ^r*ATTACKER* attempts to turn you!^x
Target Save String: ^cYou resisted the full power of *ATTACKER*'s turn!^x

Thanks for pointing this out - I won't be able to fix it for a couple days (giant workload) but I'll get done soon after.

Hmmm, i thought it was a resisted turn initially.
But considering they never 'fully' failed to turn me (this 'resisted-turn' happened like 3-4 times in the course of the 10 minutes i was there), whilst rahmid (a much higher level perm) consistently fails to turn me made me suspect there was something more wrong here.

Anyways, just trying to help u guys figure this one out.

The flag "no damage on save" should be on turn, but it doesn't appear to be for some monsters...

3 monsters in the tombs didn't have the flag set, so they've been fixed. Post if you see any other monsters where this happens.
