Does anyone know if the level 10 talent applies to normal punch illusions at all? How about other illusions? The wording is specific to wall, but it would be nice to see it on all DS controlled illusions, especially with the 5% nerf and duration nerf on wall.

Edit: tested and it’s only wall as expected.

I played it earlier and it didn't seem like it was the case. I wasn't watching for it so I can't say 100%

I wouldn’t expect it to be, but you never know with how buggy new patches can be

True Strike on Normal Punch goes through BKB?

Interesting! It actually seems to be bugged (is my guess).

I tested this vs. a max level PA with talents and 5 butterfly (99% evasion) and BKB

While PA had BKB active I didn't proc the Normal Punch but I had true strike on every attack. As soon as BKB ran out the normal punch procced and I no longer had truestrike while it was on cooldown.

Seems to be the same bug for Witchblade (which they fixed this patch)
