Yesterday I went to Dungeon Wrong and found that my spells don't work
on those monsters. All I got is "you're already cast a spell" msg.
It works fine on other magic monsters, such as fire ele, though.

Yup. The Town Crier Gorman in Brit on the GL shard must have a soar throat
by now. For about 5 hours he spammed that magic does not effect these
creatures and for all the citizens to beware. I think it is the first
"news" he has had in a month. Anyway just wanted to let you know it is not
you or your magic. The ogres have evolved.

I'd say "woohoo" to this since those are my preferred monsters to fight sans
magic. However, I think you're experiencing a bug, not magic resistant
creatures.

The "already casting a spell" is a bug that was supposed to be fixed two
patches back. Just like a mis-target when using a tool, you cannot use the
"tool" again, in this case your spellbook, until something changes.
Environment, reagent count, another spell is cast or the spell the client
"thinks" it is casting times out.

I'm not sure what you meant by "other" magic monsters. Ettins, trolls and
ogres are not magical, unless, of course, you're speaking of an ogre lord.

Maybe they'll fix it in the next patch. :-P

The town cryers have been saying something about ogres being immune to
magic. I don't know if that is what you're dealing with though.

Nope, it's not a bug... it's the next OSI "quest".... according to the
town crier, who was filling me in as I studied the anatomy of all the
cute girls around the bank (heehee) A spell has been cast upon all the
ogres of the land.... they are now immune to magic (no talk of ettins,
but maybe they're considered that too)... it is unknown who cast this
spell or how it might be undone.

Does this new found ability extend itself to Ogre Lords too?
*gulp*
