Uskayaw Piety

Hoping that someone can tell me if the following actions provide Uskayaw piety:

Auxiliary attacks (Tengu talon/beak, minotaur horns)

Rending blade attacks

Battlesphere attacks

Self damage from ie chain lightning or static discharge

Also secondary damage from static discharge (does damaging the same enemy twice with the same static discharge spell increment piety 2x as much?)

Detonation Catalyst explosions

Orb of pyromania explosions

Anguish damage

The wiki states:
For each monster you hurt, you will gain piety based on the monster's threat and the % of the monster's max HP you dealt.

hurt_val = 1d3 + sqrt(2 * threat + 2) * (damage dealt)/(monster max HP)^([7])

piety = 10 * log2(1 + (<hurt_val - 5> / 10) )

This piety gain seems tied to taking actions. Many of these effects aren't quite actions so I'm not sure they would proc the piety gain.
