So your saying clickies with cast times should require Reagents? Because Lev cloak doesn't (and shouldn't).

Pretty sure PoSky instant clickies require reagents too - for sure the Wizard ring and necklace.
I'm suggesting the PoSky clickies you refer to probably shouldn't use reagents, because of what I said above.

The reagent check is performed during casting. With instant cast time there is no casting phase so the check is never done and no reagent is consumed. At least that's how it was on the old client.

It would also explain why magician's summon waterstone and ring of flight don't use reagents for EB/Levitate. Because they are instant cast. Yet shaman potions and other clicks that aren't instant, do use reagents.

Pegasus Cloak, uses Levitation. This is a spell with no reagent. Levitate, the spell casters and priests get, is an entirely different spell and it requires a bat wing reagent. This is why you can stack Levitation and Levitate, they are different spell effects in different slots.
