Bug: Blade of the Serpent doesn't work with Regulus mines

from Demigod Forums

Maybe it's not a bug but it sure seems like it should be. Anyway if you hit Blade of the Serpent, and then throw a mine at someone and it goes off while BotS buff is on you, you get no mana... Why? So Regulus mine damage does not count toward Regulus? Mines are independent of their caster? We have a limit of the total amount of mines we have active at a time so they are being tracked to the Regulus who cast them but why isn't the damage tracked?

 

Seems like a bug to me. Please fix!

If this was resolved, then you get the rook people who say why are my towers not giving me mana.  then you get the UB people saying, why doesn't my spit dmg over time give me mana over time and so on.  

 

I'm pretty sure they don't get the mana for the above abilities either.  Except maybe for the initial dmg the UB gives.  I've forgotten the exact specs on the blade of the serpent, so i gotta check back on that.

Actually, why would it be a problem for the tower damage giving Rook mana, it's only for 10 seconds so whoop-de-do. The amount of mana you get back is irrelevent, TB can go from 900 mana -> full in 1 Rain of Ice cast with BotS so why can't Rook get credit for HIS towers?

 

Also, for the UB question, you do get mana over time for the DoT effect of Spit. I've tried it and confirmed.

 

I think they also need to look at TB's Fire Nova and why it doesn't give you full credit for the damage you do. I've noticed that if I'm at like 50% mana with TB and click BotS and use Fire Nova on a group of creeps I don't get 75% of the damage back in mana. I see all these numbers for damage popping up around totalling up over 4k me but my mana is still only ~50% full..

Yes, you do get mana back from spit. And yes, you should get mana back from towers; and yes its most probably a bug that you dont get it with your mines.
