So I was at the chess board in Durlag's tower about to kill the king, whose defenses are down and all alone. He summons a giant spider which goes after Neera. "No worries," I think, "thanks to her wild surge she has a level 12 stoneskin up. That 8 legged fiend can wait til the king is down." I go back to killing the king but then Neera grunts in pain and I notice she's dying fast. Stoneskin is still up so I pause and scroll through the feedback notes to see what happened. Turns out that spider can't hurt Neera but it can still poison her...and she's dying a slow painful death while Viconia can only watch from the other side of the board...admittedly she'd probably just watch even if she was by Neera.
I reload (because I'm like that) and test to see if this works in my favor. I send Dorn up to the King who has stoneskin up himself, use Dorn's poison ability and let him whack away. Sure enough, Dorn connects, does no damage but poisons the king who quickly succumbs to his wounds like a...well, like a spindly wizard that just got poisoned by a 2-handed sword.
My question: is this an exploit/bug? And if so is there a way to fix it (mod or otherwise)? I feel like if Stoneskin prevents a weapon/spider bite from actually wounding the flesh then the poison should be a no go as well.
