Sky Blitz buffs not carrying over with Endow

[dragonsdemesne]

Was testing against the arena deck I posted today, and AI played sky blitz to make its flying longbow a 12/4, but when endowing it with its crusaders, it only got +6 (the base attack) instead of +12 attack.  (it just topdecked the longbow that turn, and played longbow, flying weapon, sky blitz, then endow with all the crusaders)  (the AI's purple nymph came from a TU)

edit: image
edit again: some of the saders have 3 attack, because they were antimattered to -3, and then endowed for the (incorrect) amount of +6 attack.

I think this is the intended behaviour. You could argue that the crusader should get a temporary buff though (a permanent one would be potentially OP).

what about the dive-PU combo? have a wyrm use dive, PU it, and the dive ability stays permanent on the new creature

wait is this true?

on topic:
Do the Saders get more attack if you AE the weapon and buff it otherwise, using a card like Blessing or SoW? Or does it only get the original?

With blessing and shard of patience on an animated weapon, if you endow it on a crusader, it WILL get the extra bonuses from those two cards; I've done it before.  I haven't tried or seen it with chaos power or rage potion or any other buff that I can remember.

Of course the dive ability stays. The more relevant bit is that the attack boost used to stay permanently, but was changed long ago to disappear after one Dive. It sounds like d2d doesn't know the attack boost disappears.

correct. i did not know that. its cool that you can just keep PUing it though...

I think it's intended.
If you look at the bow's stats after you use sky blitz it will have "full atk" and "current atk", I think the crusaders take the "full atk", I might be wrong though.

I always thought the dive + PU combo is actually a bug that Zanz declared a feature for the lulz, it makes no sense at all for me.

Chaos Power and rage potion should be carried to the Sader, since they are permanent boosts. The same way, if you use antimatter in the weapon and endow it, you will debuff your sader. You can do this intentionally with discord or arsenic to get past some of the shields and keep scrambling/poisoning.
