When Mindy mimics a Crusaders with a weekend buff (such as Val's Animal Kingdom or Tiernan's Tir Na Nog this week), the mimicked ability isn't counting the weekend buff.
I forget, is this intended behavior. or is it a bug?
I know it wouldn't apply for buffs that are completely new effects (such as +200% dps to all crusaders), since those aren't formation abilities obtained from leveling up, but this is asking about the boosted abilities she does mimic.
Thanks.

They changed Mindy a couple months back to use her own copy of skills that modify the base skill. This is probably because of that change, but I don't know if it's intentional that she doesn't benefit from the weekend buff.

Is that also somehhow related to how Mindy has a smaller gold and dps boost than Langley from Chew Chew when mimicking them, despite both chew chew and All Aboard ostensibly being mimicked at 1.5x each (so should be 2.25x dps and gold per affected crusader)? This is without a weekend buff to All Aboard or Chew Chew.
I still don't understand how this is possible.

Mindy will mimic both of those at 1.5x of their base effects each, but the problem comes in with propagation. The "adjacent" and "two or further" effects can both be propagated and since Mindy's distance to other champions will be different than Langley's, that's likely where you're seeing the difference.

tindragon, right, but think about it this way. Each champion can either contribute to gold or dps bonus from chew chew, or both if propogated.
If Mindy also mimics karen, then she provides all of the crusaders in the column below her with gold & dps chew chew from Langely (though almost all will already have dps CC already), and then that is further propogated into the column below langley.
Meanwhile Mindy's gold CC is propogated by Langley, (though the DPS CC is, again, already applied to almost all crusaders so isn't propogated). The fact that more crusaders will have the gold CC propogated *might* make Langley's gold CC larger... maybe. depending on how many crusaders it affects (and asuming Mindy doesn't karen her way into being affected by her own CC).
However, the number of crusaders affected by the DPS portion of CC shouldn't change much (since almost all crusaders would be at least 2 slots away anyway). So if 10 crusaders have the DPS boost from Mindy at 2.25x effect, that shouldn't provide significantly less dps boost than 12 crusaders at 1x effectiveness (in jungle journey, Langley was providing e68dps vs Mindy's e58dps). Unless I am missing something. Also, the puddles should affect each dps boost from CC the same, regardless if it's Mindy's CC or Langley's CC.
I'm just confused about how this works.
