Why is it that when i use a spell from my hero thats an enchantment it dose not work or do any thing to me, such as mending, Balthazar's spirit, and any other i tried

Heroes don't do well with maintained enchantments. Even if you force them to use one they will cancel it within a short time.

Other enchantments work fine, in my experience.

Nope ... no ideas. Maybe someone else has a trick that works.

Sorry

Try this trick:

Shift-click on the maintained enchantment on the hero's skill bar to disable it. The hero won't try to use it, but you can still click it to get them to cast it. In my experience, doing this generally makes them keep maintaining it once it's been cast.

If its a maintained enchantment like Mending and Balth's Spirit, first shift click the skill on the hero's skillbar to disable them from touching it. Because of the energy management coding, heroes will always cancel a maintained enchantment. Next target yourself and manually cast that enchantment on you. Because its disabled on their skillbar, the heroes won't then cancel those enchants on you.
