For this PR how would you like me to finish it? The suggested formatting is rejected by the sanity_checks. I can revert to the formatting I had before or we can override the sanity checks. |

For reference, we don't even make this allowance for LSB core contributors. The answer is to keep pushing until CI passes (the CI minutes are free!) |

Sanity checks and data formatting passed, just waiting on the builds. Do you need anything more from me to drop the hold tag? |

Related to this issue.
This change makes it so threnodies can be overwritten by threnodies of the same tier or higher, but not by ones of a lower tier.
It's not the cleanest implementation but it is the simplest: The function that now has the exception for threnody causes this not to work because each of the threnodies has the same internal effect id. When the code runs it sees an effect with the same id at the same tier, and short circuits it to "no effect". Skipping this check for threnody specifically lets the normal tier decisioning happen.
This is all trusting that bug report and hinging on whether or not this is retail behavior. I couldn't find an example of someone swapping a threnody, so if someone has a bard and can test it that'd be good. If you cant turn fire threnody i into ice threnody i on a mob in retail, then this PR should just be closed.
Steps to test these changes
Monster with fire threnody I on it -> use ice threnody I, it gains it -> use fire threnody ii, it gains it -> use ice threnody i, no effect -> use ice threnody ii, it gains it.
