Ravenous doubts + consuming questions not working?

If I understand correctly, ravenous doubts works now on all hit abilities no matter what (as long it isnt a dot). But it seems that I cannot regain any energy shield from abilities like: ball lightning, lightning warp, fireball...
Not sure if I misread something, but the wording seems to me like it should work?

So I noticed with melee that if I didn't lose mana to force mana leech the shield didn't move (so mind over matter was clearly needed)

I've read "hit" as spells and attacks but yeah not working with any spells (forced with mind over matter to test that mana was never maxed out and still not doing anything).

Intended or bugged? Unsure but the wording is wrong regardless
