Default Feast of Souls CE bug?

I noticed it on GWW:
"Feast of Souls counts the two dancing spirits of the Factions CE (/dancenew) as two extra spirits and gives extra healing."

I don't have the CE so how does it work? You type /dancenew, and when you cast feast of souls the dancing spirits die?

Are there any other spirit mechanics that can be abused with this? Seems bad that a CE gives you an unfair advantage over the normal version.

Seems bad that the CE isn't available in stores, but whatever.

Two things:
1) The "Unfair advantage" really isn't that bad. It's an extra 180 health, which isn't much. I do, however, see how this could play out badly in PvP, if /dancenew is even allowed in PvP (Shouldn't be). I do vote for having collector editions/shiny hands/etc be able to be bought in store (Ingame or otherwise) though.
2) I love your avatar.

doesn't work. I have factions CE, tried /dancenew and using the skill, (which of course makes the "spirits" go away before you finish casting... and then also tried taking a hero and flagging them directly on top of me and using feast of souls... first without any spirits (aside from /dancenew ones) and then with 1, 2, and 3 spirits. none of these times did it count the "extra" spirits.

I vaguely recall another bug where if you shadowstep after doing /dancenew, the spirits don't die and you're free to cast as long as you don't move. Can you please try feast of souls in that scenario? And could you check if other skills like spirit light work with the dancing spirits too? Cheers

- Player nor hero gain benefit from /dancenew spirits. /dancenew spirits disappear as soon as you cast any skill.
- Shadowstepping is a skill, spirits disappear.
- No matter the placement of spirits, Feast of Souls will never target /dancenew spirits. It will always target an actual one. (I used empowerment)

Lol

not only to we have men in skirts chucking spears and screaming "SAVE YOURSELVES!" every 2/3 seconds

now we have Rits stopping in the middle of a horrific battle to dance

PvE is so awesome
