Hi,
Did some research and just want to clarify my results:
"Furthermore, the game considers the character to be in a state of death for a small period of time before his/her hit points are "refunded" by the Mana Shield. During this period of death (fraction of a second) the character is actually rendered immune to attacks, and cannot be knocked backward as well."
- this is actually what you meant with god mode, isn't it? So god mode is another expression for mana shield bug.
"If a character goes to pick up an item as he/she is entering a Town Portal, a dupe will appear on the other side, thus creating the same item in town and in the dungeon. Neither item will be destroyed."
- this must be what you refered to as duping. I find this hard to believe, as I assume to have behaved like that many times, i.e. walking through a town-portal and in the last second deciding to pick up one last item I had overlooked. But if they say so, it's probably there. One question, though: Assuming you are in a dungeon, i.e. the caves lvl 10, and cast a portal. Does the bug appear when you pick up an item while being in the townportal square already and the dublicate will be placed in town while you fail to take the portal and stay in the caves? Or does the bug appear when it already is determined that you entered the town portal and the dublicate is placed in the caves, whereelse you yourself are portalled to town?
