Here I'm, with my trusth worthy ancient chaos drake, jamming and stuck on a
spider web, and life is great.

Hey! I was next to you, riding my flying mount and when I moved around, my
invis dropped because I made noises walking around. Ain't code grand.

But dear Shinarae, Mahon is absolutely right! It should say "made noises
FLYING around"

Mmm. I love onomatopoetics. Now could you also make the sound of albatros
flying?

- Sancran

Albatrosses travel huge distances with two techniques used by many long-winged
seabirds, dynamic soaring and slope soaring. Dynamic soaring enables them to
minimise the effort needed by gliding across wave fronts gaining energy from
the vertical wind gradient. Slope soaring is more straightforward: the
albatross turns to the wind, gaining height, from where it can then glide back
down to the sea. Albatross have high glide ratios, around 22:1 to 23:1, meaning
that for every metre they drop, they can travel forward 22 metres (72 ft).

I think there isn't necessarily much flapping happening...

If I was to inquire why it happened randomly and not on every move, I would
most probably get a reply that I'm gliding when it doesn't happen, so I won't
bother.
For some particular reason, clear stupidities often (here) get dismissed by
pointing out some random 'fact', that, while surely can explain it, makes
absolutely no sense on larger scale.
I reported a valid bug - to an incorrect newsgroup, but lets not go there -
and the response (that there is a response at all, is approximately 87% better
than what my 'bug view' says) is mockery. But worry not, if I happen to find a
valid bug that's beneficial to me, I'll keep quiet.

First paragraph: Nm, this is wiz-specific.
Second paragraph: Sounds me that you're saying it's intentional that it's that
way, yet, that the message was not changed, contradicts it. Please elaborate
how is one supposed to distinguish between typo and a bug. (Don't if you say
benefit player=bug, anything else=typo).
Third paragraph: To me, it sounds like a self-made grave that players need to
figure if some 'feature' is there because of game balance or because it was
simply overlooked. I would like to point out that moving through any terrain
in summer does not drop invis. I fail to see how such a minor issue (it is,
really) affects gamebalance in any way. To me, it looks like another of these
reality-tunes.
The whole idea of invisibility spell is ridiculous, you'll breathe mist,
rustle armour and speak no problem. But when you walk alone in a forest
thousand miles from nearest person and make a sound with feet, not mouth, the
illusion breaks.
My opinion still stands that this is a valid bug, overlooked in the recoded
invis.
