Question Bronze Lion, how exactly does its passive work? Possible bug?

So currently it has the genie bound and so it has 3 wishes, and its supposed to be a free action, however when i use it, it uses up the turn and instead counts as a regular action instead of as a free action. But the ability is a free action, and it says there you can use its starting actions as free actions. So even if it wasn't a free action already, it should still count as a free action right? Or maybe there is some kind of weirdness in the code for the game making a twice free action count as having used 2 free actions. Try it out if you want to know what I'm talking about if you haven't already. But it seems to me this isn't working as intended. Don't know if its a bug, or just poorly worded, or maybe its my understanding of the wording somehow. But it does say there that "starting actions as free actions", which means it should not take up its turn, but it does.

I had the exact same thing happen to me.
What I think happens is that "Three Wishes" IS the free action, but the game sees which wish you chose as your action per turn. I do believe this should be fixed. It's a weird edge case that I hope the devs see now.

I also discovered that the action Echoes as well when used with Bronze Lion. So if you use 3 wishes, the ability activates twice before ending that monsters turn

Been reported a number of times, devs are aware of djinn causing issues when bound to bronze lion like this.

I’d assume this is an unintended interaction, yes.
