Conversion

Template:CSP Through force of will and strength of steel, a noble Paladin with this skill is able to blind his enemies with the glory of the Light. After trading blows with the Paladin and facing the fire of righteousness burning in his eyes, an enemy will sometimes be struck with a divine epiphany and momentarily repent his past undertakings. So complete is the transformation, that the converted will turn to slay its former comrades.

• Chance to convert applied on attack.
• Only converts normal and minion monsters (with a few exceptions).
• When clvl < mlvl, clvl is used to calculate convert defense, attack rating and damage, but life is still calculated using mlvl. When clvl >= mlvl, mlvl continues to be used to calculate all level-adjusted stats. [1]
• While converted, monsters are affected by friendly buffs and auras and hostile debuffs and auras. Any buff, debuff, Poison Damage or Open Wounds that has not expired before conversion will remain afterwards: a monster can be cursed with Amplify Damage before conversion to maximise damage returned by Thorns. [2]
• Converted monsters capable of spawning, healing or resurrecting other converts will not do so; Pain Worms from infested converts are not converts, and behave as normal. [3]
• Gain experience from monsters killed by converts, but not from those killed while converted.
• Converts will follow Paladin, but not when using portals or Teleport.
• Auras may still apply for up to two seconds after Conversion expires.
• Upon expiry, mlvl is used to calculate all level-adjusted stats again; however, when clvl < mlvl then life is 1/256. [4] [5] [6]
