Vengeful Spirit Aghanim Scepter illusion not dealing full damage. #19044

Closed Bogdanov89 closed 5 months ago

Ability name

Vengeance Aura - aghanim scepter

Description

Vengeful Spirit aghanim scepter spawns an illusion when she dies. The description says the illusion deals FULL damage and can cast all of her spells.

However when testing in demo at level 7 (no items & aghanim blessing) and only maxed Vengeance Aura there is very clearly a difference in damage between the living Vengeful Spirit and the illusion spawned by the aghanim scepter. I was careful to kill the vengeful spirit with a third/different unit so that her Retribution debuff would not tamper the math on the Leshrac target dummy.

I even tried using a second allied Vengeful Spirit to provide a second Vengeance Aura to try and make sure the illusion has the full benefits, but it had no impact - for unknown reasons the illusion simply does less damage. Personally i suspect that the illusion is not getting the full benefits of its own Vengeance Aura.

Aura provides extra damage based on base damage. Since illusions do not use additional damage, aura damage is not counted.

You are right, despite the tooltip saying FULL DAMAGE she is still truly counted as a strong illusion, meaning raw damage (like from a sacred relic) does absolutely nothing from her in that form.

Perhaps the tooltip should be changed to 100% damage instead of "full damage" to maintain coherence with every other illusion in the game.
