With a recent change it looks like banner bearer was nerfed so that you couldn't share the affix script major buffs with allies, but in the process Ulfsild's Contingency has become bugged. I'm not sure if this was an intended change for banner bearer, but due to this change it appears that you can no longer share the affix script major buffs with allies using growing impact on Ulfsild's Contingency. If you use the heal focus script without growing impact allies allies will still receive the buffs. While using growing impact if allies stand in it and you don't then it will constantly refresh the buff on yourself while allies receive nothing. This has seriously screwed up our PVE 4 man and trial group setups. Can we get a fix for this ASAP?
Hey all, just wanted to let you know we've seen this, have escalated it for investigation, and we'll follow up with findings (probably Monday.)
Hey all, following up here on a few things reported in this thread. For the Immobilize Focus issue, we've investigated this in the past and were unable to reproduce the issue internally. If you're able to provide any additional details, it may help us do so. For the Cavalier Charge, we have a fix for the issue where Banner Bearer, when paired with the Cavalier's Charge Signature, would produce an incorrect amount of Weapon and Spell Damage. With the fix, it will grant its listed amount instead of a percentage amount. This fix is going out with the next incremental patch for PC, and will be in the first incremental patch for consoles. For Ulfsild's Contingency, the team is requesting more information on what seems bugged or has changed. In looking at the tooltip for the Brutality and Sorcery Affix Script for Ulfsild's Contingency, it says "Grants you Major Brutality and Major Sorcery for 10 seconds, increasing Weapon and Spell Damage by 20%." Did we miss anything in this thread? Let us know. Thank you all!
Thank you, @YandereGirlfriend! Could you send @ZOS_Kevin or I a link to the video? We'll pass it along to aid in investigations. @code65536 - got it. Thank you for the clarification! Passing this along to the team as well.
Hello! Following up again, we’ve done some testing using combinations of Ulfsild's Contingency, the Damage Shield Focus script, and the Growing Impact Signature script. What we are seeing is that any of the "Grants Minor..." Affix scripts (as opposed to "Afflicts Minor..." or "Grants you Major...") is granting some variation of Warding Contingency. We then cast Warding Contingency, shield bash a target to proc the ability, and then either had a group member within the AoE to pick up the Minor buff, or had them start outside of the AoE and then walk in to pick up the Minor buff. In all our test cases, we are seeing Minor buffs apply normally to group members. Are you seeing something different? If so, could you provide details on what you are observing, like how we have here, including where you are seeing different behavior and exactly what Focus/Signature/Affix scripts you are using? Thank you!
