**Platform, device version and operating system:**
all
**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened:**
The new weapon introduced this week, Poisonous Brew, has mana cost of 3 green/brown. While all other weapons following the same template, “deal [magic+3] damage to the first 2 enemies, boosted by [troop type / kingdom] allies”, have mana cost of 14. Clearly that 3 is wrong.
**How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?**
Since introduction of Poisonous Brew.

I’m sure you’re being sarcastic and all, but _I’m_ going to choose to read that with utmost sincerity.
These are bugs that should not have survived literally ANY level of review pre-relase.

I was referring to them rushing here to point out a bug in players favour once again. Which once again will be jumped on and fixed instantly. (Already had the reported tag added by devs)
And we all know there is literally zero pre release review

It’s not in the player’s favour though, since those weapons are never worth using, even at 3 mana cost.

Lol.
That was a dumb bug, and it has to be fixed. If you don’t agree with that, I’ve nothing else to discuss with you.
And I didn’t “rush”, either. This bug was first spotted [here](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/toxic-avengers/87677/6), within first few hours of monday. It went unnoticed to devs for more than 48 hours, even if a dev later posted in that thread (due to 13k shiny keys issue). So I had to make this report. Within a day, it’s now fixed. This shows that dev team has no manpower to read the whole forum, especially when Jeto is now in hospital. Bug report is necessary to get bugs fixed.

I _was_ using it in slot 1 for Raid Boss, actually: at 3 mana cost it filled super quick, was useful for softening up enemies for Mother of Darkness to kill, and because it uses brown mana it had some mild synergy with Toxic Hag’s convert.
Certainly not worth it at 13 mana cost; I want some mana generation at that cost.
(but yeah, very obviously a dumb bug; fun to use while it lasted.)
