**Platform, device version and operating system:** PC **What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened:** Cast a spell with the new troop Soul Gate. It doesn’t scale with souls, it doesn’t inflict Curse as it’s supposed to according to the description. **How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?** Always. **Steps to make it happen again** Cast a spell with Soul Gate. ---

It also gets reduced more by spell resistance. ---

I tested multiple times and always got the boost. It does not however curse. ---

It does show that it must scale > **[Steam Community :: Screenshot :: Must scale](https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2041116093)** > > Steam Community: Gems of War. Must scale But when actually cast, the damage isn’t increased: [Steam Community :: Screenshot :: 14 dmg](https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2041116551) ---

Ok, so you are saying it should boost before it drains which is possible. It is getting the boost but seems to be getting it after the life drain because I am getting the boosted armor amount added to the gate. ---

Well, the armor is added in the next sentence. The boost refers to the life drained. At least in the English version. ---

The implementation of the spell: - Counts the opponent’s life. - Counts half your magic. - Does true damage equal to the lesser of those two numbers. - Adds 30% of your souls to the true damage done. - Gives you that much armor. I don’t know what happened here, but the person who wrote the description and the person who implemented the spell are definitely not the same person. There’s nothing in the implementation that applies curse. ---

Why Gate of Souls spell only uses the booster when adding armor, while it does not use the booster when draining life from enemy? Sentence describe this spell as “…drain 10 Life from them, boosted by my Souls…” ---

I’ve noticed it too. The curse is never applied. ---

Because the devs don’t care and know no matter how often they do this, people will still keep spending money. This isn’t the first time. It won’t be the last. Welcome to Gems of War. ---
