Stormfeather Spiritborn huge power loss since yesterday

Spiritborn Stormfeather build has been massively reduced in power between yesterday and today. My crits went from 108M to roughly 68M resulting in Pit 85 clear time that went from 6 minutes on average to 12. I don’t know what was done or implemented but this needs to be fixed asap. There was a small patch yesterday that went out with the cosmetics; that is the only thing I have noticed. If this is in fact a nerf, it needs to be communicated because after a week of time spent and 100 dollars for the expansion, my experience and everyone else’s will directly be affected. As a side note, using any type of elixir literally further reduces the power by 50% resulting in 32M (ish) crits. Please provide information on this matter as soon as you are able to. Thank you.

Aspect of Unyielding hits stopped working for storm feathers. Question for blizzard: Is this a bug or intentional?

Same. Unyielding (imprinted) doesn’t buff evade storm feathers for me. It works as expected with Thunderspike. I noticed it because I finally got my Tzic drop, so I respecced into unyielding and did a back to back Pit 65 to check the power increase. There was no power increase. I then tested on the target dummy (gear swap to disable unyielding) and observed the range of damage numbers and confirmed that there was no damage increase with unyielding. The character sheet updates as expected (attack power and weapon damage increase). Even the spirit tab updates (the spirit tab snapshots your power, so you have to toggle the tabs back and forth to get a fresh snapshot during an unyielding proc). I procced unyielding both with Tzic and manually with armored hide. Same result.

Ideas that have not fixed the problem:

  • Stripping off pieces of armor in case there are bad interactions (e.g. disobedience)
  • Respec to no talents and only use the bare minimum to test (accelerated thunderspike)
  • Imprint unyielding on different gear slots
  • Dismiss mercenaries
  • Change difficulty: Penitent, T3, T4 all same
  • Swap between controller and keyboard
  • Change dummy between boss and normal
  • Update codex: The problem was initially on a 20% unyielding (30% on amulet) but I upgraded to a 24% (36% amulet) early in troubleshooting before I knew what was wrong

Ideas yet to try:

  • Use a fresh non-imprinted unyielding
  • Reset paragon
  • Level a fresh character? (surely not)
  • Imprint in a different city? (surely not)
  • Disable glam? (surely not)
  • Any other ideas?

Wudijo confirmed this bug on stream. Andariel’s also doesn’t get buffed by unyielding. Maybe all proc damage?
