Game Mechanics: Bug: Mana Sieve should not affect bards

[Nirgon]

The tap should hit the bard but I don't know what should happen from there. I am completely clueless on that one.

[Dullah]

Tap should hit everyone and +mana the enchanter.

Theft of Thought will no longer give mana when cast on PC classes that do not have mana (in PvP or in a duel).

Not changed till luclin.

[Crazycloud]

[Osyruz]

According to Dec 1st patch notes,

• Haynar: Mana drain spells will no longer drain bard mana.

However, enchanters are still able to drain my bard's mana. This was observed from the bard's perspective as losing mana. The enchanter said he was using Theft of Thought, Torment of Argli, and Lagarn's Lamentation to drain mana.

Haynar's fix appears to have not made it in to the Dec 1st patch.

This is wrong. Enchanter should be able to drain any class, even pure melee. See the post I made in bug forums. May 8 2002 bug post fixes this, which is after luclin is released.

Your post concerns the enchanter gaining mana from Theft of Thought.

My observation and this thread is about bards losing mana from spells that drain mana. These two are separate issues concerning the similar types of spell effects.

Bump, again, is anyone bothering to even look into this?

Getting a grasp on this. Will try to start doing some pvp fixes mixed in with other stuff.

So for bards, all mana drain spells should not drain mana. Whether its npc or pc casting on them? ToT should replenish enc, but not drain bard?

Fixed pending update.

Bards are STILL having their mana drained by these spells, any chance on actually fixing this?
*Edit* The fixed pending update was from 08-03-2014, seems like a long time to wait for a pending update.
