The Tavern

Has Chei always given the player piety for summon kills, or is this new? For some reason I haven't noticed this before.

I'm guessing this is a bug relating to shadow traps, and not all summons. Earlier I was spectating a game and was surprised to find a vampire gain HP by stabbing a monster created by a shadow trap. I tested in 15.2 and didn't gain any piety from killing Eustachio's summons.

So, like, a month and a half old.

OP, can you clarify whether you're talking about kills of enemy summons, or kills made by your own summons?

Kills made by the player's own summons. I was just a wee bit drunk when I posted this and now I see that this topic probably shouldn't be in CYC (not like it matters, really). Anyway, I met with an untimely death as a VSSu^Chei... Pretty fun stuff. Summons offset slow movement more than I would've expected... And VS are still as ridiculous as ever.

This shouldn't happen, and I'm unable to reproduce it when testing. If you see it again, report it on Mantis with details, please.
