[BUG?] Erebus can pick up dropped Mana scrolls while Misted.

So you kill an enemy Demigod with Erebus, but you're near death, so you hit Mist to chill out for a while.  Then you realize you're also almost out of mana.  But no worry: the Demigod you killed dropped a mana scroll!  Will left-clicking on it pick it up?  Why yes it will!  Then you think: that can't be right!  So you write a bug report to the technical support forum asking if that's what's supposed to happen.

Why shouldn't it?

He's a misty swirl of ether. If he wants to coalesce the scroll into his netherworld, it seems entirely realistic, all things considered.

Did he kick your butt like that? Burn! :D

Well, I kind of figured that since he can't move, heal, capture flags, or use abilities, it was odd that he could grab a scroll.  I wonder if the potions work (considering that he can't be healed, I bet they don't, but it would be interesting if they did).

 

No, I didn't get beat like that; I was playing Erebus in single-player (the Pantheon doesn't want to connect me to anyone this evening), so I had some latitude to try weird stuff like staying in mist for ages and clicking on scrolls to see what happened. :-)

Hehe... yeah. I didn't know he couldn't do all that other stuff misted.

I've only played Oak on the generals side.

Probably a bug.

But it's funnier my way.
