Neither of these push us over the edge so I’ve been playing with them.
Grizzly Rage (at least wolf form) - As long as you keep killing you get infinite grizzly rage.
Banished Lord’s Talisman - Each shred hit is counting as though we spend 35 spirit. So we get the procs constantly.
First one aint a bug, it’s literally how the skill functions.
it’s supposed to cap out at 22 seconds. The first skill kills gain 1 second up to 12 or 22 seconds.
The cap is just how much you can “store”. The extended duration cannot have more than X seconds left is how the skill functions.
“Kills extend the duration by 1 second … but the duration cannot go above X seconds” is just a bit badly worded.
Lets say you have a duration of 15 on your tooltip.
You have 5 seconds left and you kill 5 monsters → 10 seconds left
2 seconds pass and you now have 8 seconds left.
You kill 10 monsters → 15 seconds left, because the duration cannot go past 15.
5 seconds pass and you now have 10 seconds left.
You kill 15 monsters → 15 seconds left, because the duration cannot go past 15.
And so on. It doesn’t really say “You cannot extend the duration by more than 15 seconds” which is what most people interpret it as.
EDIT: A quick way to showcase it’s the expected behavior. The common complaint was that there was nothing to kill during boss fights, so there was no way to have a 100% uptime for GR during said boss fights. That’s why they added the overpower clause to the skill; so you can have it up all the time during a boss fight.
Not a bug, that’s how it works now.
Also not a bug. BLT makes your next ability Crit and OP once you spend the required amount of Resource. Shred is an ability that has 3 hits to it, but each hit is still part of the same Shred activation, and therefore they all get the bonus from BLT. In other words, Shed’s full damage is just split between three attacks. It would be a bug if BLT did NOT affect all three attacks.
It’s why you can start your Shred (and immediately spend Spirit on that first attack) and then follow up with the two subsequent attacks without spending anymore Spirit (because it’s still part of the same Shred “cast”).
I hope this clears up any confusion you have on Grizzly Rage, as well as the way Shred works and it’s interactions with BLT.
understood. thank you!
