Abyssal Empowerment seems to prevent Enforced Morale from working

[yStefan]

Abyssal Empowerment seems to prevent Enforced Morale from working on Demons & Demon Prince, according to the combat attributes window. 

(Based on some limited experience against enemies with mez, I'm somewhat confident that this is not just a display bug - I saw the Demon Prince get stunned while showing the EM icon in the pet window ) 

 

Things work fine when Enforced Morale is used on Demonlings. 

 

Steps to reproduce: 
1) Summon Demons/Demon Prince
2) Cast Enforced Morale on pet 
3) Check Combat Attributes window, mainly Status Effect Protection & Resistance. The effects from Enforced Morale will appear. 
4) Dismiss pet 
5) Summon Demons/Demon Prince again 
6) Use Abyssal Empowerment on pet 
7) Repeat steps 2 & 3 . This time the effects from Enforced Morale will *not* appear. 

 

You can also check the HP bar of the pets - they won't even take the minor damage caused by Enforced Morale. 

 

My guess would be that this has something to do with the "kMeter < 0.9" condition that we see on City Of Data but I have no idea what that means.

I just noticed this on City Of Data... 

Abyssal Empowerment grants an "Abyssal Empowerment" auto power to the pets, a Mag 10 Evade. 

 

The Demonling versions only have the Evade effect : 

Fiery

Cold

Hellfire

 

The Demons & Demon Prince version also have a "+100% Meter" effect. 

Hellfire gargoyle

Ember demon

Demon prince 

 

I assume this is the same variable as the "kMeter < 0.9" condition of Enforced Morale, preventing it from working.
