Cast on Death + Portal Not Working

Read the MonaHuna's post

I've re-read it now several times and feel I grasp its gist.

0% reservation multiplier is not the same as "Does not require paying costs" (as this thread has shown). If a design change was made it was not published (afaik). If it was always meant to be handled this way the original "does not require paying costs" text was incorrect (understandable, big system and all that; 0% mult might have been assumed to be the same thing as no cost).

It would be nice to know which was actually intended and, more importantly, which will be available in the future:

• no cost for skills triggered by CoD/Mjolner
• 0% reservation multiplier for CoD/Mjolner
• or alternatively: "no cost for skills triggered by CoD/Mjolner ... except that '+/- to total costs' is applied afterwards ... which we understand isn't very clear"

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Spells triggered with Mjolner or Cast on Death don't require you to pay the costs.

- it's just a development manifesto.

Cast on Death: Now has a 0% Cost and Reservation Multiplier.

- official patch notes

And they don't agree. No notice was provided for this change or the change wasn't intended/anticipated, hence my original query and (I believe) why Jatin is passing this on.

Bump.

I'm using blade blast for cast on death and its not casting. I have multiple stacks of blade vortex on my character when I die, but it does not go off. Sometimes when I die in this scenario, it seems like one of my blade vortex blade keeps spinning over my body.

The previous questions on this issue (regarding mana costs) do not apply to my character and it is not wearing uniques that may drastically alter the game mechanics.

Is there an update to this (mana cost for cast on death/portal)?

It's frustrating for this not to work based on the manifesto.

Got it. Thanks for clearing it up for me. Appreciate it.

Cast on Death is still not casting Portal consistently.

Do you have modifiers to the total cost of skills? This might be making your trigger have a mana cost that you might not always be able to afford.
