Did KI change the way fizzle rates are calculated? Is it just me or have I have noticed a DRAMATIC increase in fizzles when battling in GH?

Well. IDK what's wrong with it, but I'm experiencing the same thing. along with the troubled warriors and grendals living after being defeated. I can only get my 100% spells out and a few of the other ones. IDK Whats up, but I hope KI will fix it! :D

I've had this trouble too(not with the same wolf bear thing but with imps.) I've had a spell that i know will defeat them, but after its done they still have one maybe two life points left.

The fizzle rate has killed me way too many times. I didn't fizzle this much since I was in Wizard City. I think they have different fizzle rates for different worlds.

Well are some of you fire and storm wizards? Well, they have low fizzle chance so they fizzle more often. But i havent really fizzled anymore than i do already.

P.s these are the % of fizzle chance for all schools:

Life: 90% (highest chance of not fizzling)
Balance: 85%
Myth: 85%
Death: either 80 or 85%
Ice: 80%
fire: 75%
storm: 70% (lowest chance of not fizzling)

Actually, I dissagree with you all 8) Yes i am (dramatic music plays) THE DISSAGREER PERSON OH MAN THATS NO SPELLED RIGHT....

um...forget that last sentence anyway the grizzleheim world is still technically "new" with tunnels plus the new speaker woman voice (but i HATE her voice!). I didn't notice really anything different in the fizzle chance OR the monsters dying then returning back to life. It can be like a bug in the game or your computers :?

Well I guess my post was really useless but i hoped that help you people in any sort of a weird way that i can't identify...

Hey, I haven't had the fizzle problems but I have dealt with the "living dead" per say but I think i can also explain what is wrong with it. I've have done a little experimenting and I think what happens is that the monster, if not attacked at least every other turn slowly starts to gain health back each turn afterwards(very little, any where from 1-15 it seems[except for bosses]). I'm not 100% sure but I do think this is the case.

Hope This Helps,

Its bc like if he has 500 lifes and you use spell and it takes away 500 lifes the bear can still be alive and wait till it recovers.

I'm a fire wizard and some of my most powerful spells at 90% missed alot! Thats why I tottally stopped Grizzleheim and I'm just gonna do Mooshu first.....this way I get more powerful and "Fizzleheim" will be less hard later on. 8)

1. Love your title, very catchy

2. Oh my gosh. I KNEW THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG!
I kept fizzling, and I'm life... Hmm. Fizzleheim is right.

I did notice a Huge increase of FIZZLES more then usual, and usual is extremely bad on my Storm Wizard. So now in FIZZLEheim I basicly am a pip collector, Cause nothing works most of the time even if an accurcy buff is up. I even Fizzed a few times casting a lowered attack shield buff on NPC. The kicker is, it wasn't even a Storm spell it was a Balance spell.
