Bug Reports (Path of Exile 1) - Arcane Surge Support and minions - Forum

Arcane Surge support when linked to a minions spell gives me arcane surge for casting those minions, but won't give it to minions that cast spells. I've tested it with Solar Guard spectres and with Dead Reckoning Skeleton Mages. The new buff to Arcane Surge Support would be nice for those guys, but no dice right now. :( Life is soup, I am fork.

Saw a GGG answer on reddit. Most minions don't actually use mana to cast spells. Assuming these 2 fall under that category, bit weird but ok. Life is soup, I am fork.	Posted by Cynooo#0958 on Mar 7, 2019, 6:49:24 PM Quote this Post
Edit: nevermind, was wrong. Spoiler I believe it's in the description itself: Each supported spell will track how much mana you* spend on it. Minions aren't you*. ↠ Bugs: how to report them & Known Issues list ↠ How to add images to forum posts [guide] Last edited by Zphyr#7004 on Mar 7, 2019, 9:56:43 PM	Posted by Zphyr#7004 on Mar 7, 2019, 9:31:20 PM Valued Poster Quote this Post
" Minions get all of the stats from the Arcane Surge support, but most don't spend mana so they can't grant themselves Arcane Surge. There are a few spectres that do spend mana. If your minion did somehow get Arcane Surge, they'd get the spell damage multiplier from the support. If you get Arcane Surge from another source, you'll still get the damage multiplier from the support. This is what was said. The "you" isn't the problem. Life is soup, I am fork.
