I am guessing what is happening is in the code the enemies stats are not healing right after the first buff is removed, so when the second buff of -6 hits, the enemy is at -11 stats and thus will instantly die. Netherbrain's Dex score is only 10. So it didn't have a chance. Interested to try against an enemy who has all their stats are 12 or higher, and see if the buff would be applied correctly since they wouldn't die because of the heal delay??

: That's exactly what looks like is happening. The different stages of Synaptic Consumption are implemented as separate effects, {{c|MF_ABSORB_INTELLECT_1}} through {{c|MF_ABSORB_INTELLECT_5}}. As you might imagine, {{c|MF_ABSORB_INTELLECT_1}} decreases all ability scores by 5 and {{c|MF_ABSORB_INTELLECT_2}} decreases all ability scores by 6. The problem is, they do not share a [[Stack ID]] and hence stack with each other rather than {{c|MF_ABSORB_INTELLECT_2}} replacing {{c|MF_ABSORB_INTELLECT_1}}. The end result is -11 to all ability scores by the start of turn 2. — [[User:NtCarlson|NtCarlson]] ([[User talk:NtCarlson|talk]]) 03:41, 8 February 2024 (CET)
:Huh, interesting. I had the same occur when I used [[Absorb Intellect]] against [[Steel Watcher Titan]]. [[User:Prexot|Prexot]] ([[User talk:Prexot|talk]]) 22:20, 16 April 2024 (CEST)
