Can anyone explain it to me as why the 6th effect of this rune isn’t working as intended or am I understanding it wrong? It should increase the aura duration by 33%, I tired it on my ele but the duration remains the same, however, the 4th effect of this rune works fine i.e. gain 4 secs of light aura when using healing skill.

Could I please get my refund for this rune if it’s bugged atm?

Pls don’t use caps… It’s rude and childish.

As for your question AFAIK auras have a maximum duration of 4 secs, so even when you use the runes, it never exceeds that 4s. The only thing this currently has an effect on is auras you gain from combos, not any of the elementalist aura skills. I may be wrong, but I think that’s it.

Thanks for your reply. I did try it with weapon auras as well, the 6th one doesnt seem to be changing anything at all? is it normal?

And, caps doesn’t always mean rude but it’s for getting attention as well, so don’t always assume negative.

The thing is that the maximum duration I mentioned was probably implemented in the last quarterly balance patch in January/February(don’t remember the date). So while this was done, the rune never received any changes. It used to be a good rune but it’s redundant now.

Yes but just bumping the thread without using caps would have prompted a reply from myself for example. Never saw your initial post.

Hmm makes sense now, in fact I was wondering the same, that is why I asked if I could be refunded. Since auras can’t get more than 4 secs duration, we shouldn’t have this rune in game anymore. I bought this rune to try it out and figured it’s not working.
Do you think they will refund for this and remove this rune?

Probably neither, I think they will just change how it functions at some point but things happen very slowly in this game. So you may have to wait for it. I’ve never heard of anyone getting refunded for a thing like this.

Ah this explains why my aura’s didnt last longer yesterday. I thought it was bugged.. But Anet making more runes redundant by shortsighted changes is a more reasonable explanation.

You could always file a ticket and see what they say. Never hurts to try right? Who knows maybe you’ll get it or maybe they’ll change something

It’s working. If the aura lasted 4 seconds when you hovered over the icon at start you would only ever see 3, because the game cuts off decimal values like 3.99. I’ve been playing on my ele and counting the proper 5+, even though you’ll see the aura buff icon read 4 by the time you can mouse over it.

I just tested this on my scrapper using rocket charge in super elixir and it worked. Without the rune the aura went up to 13s while mousing over the icon, and with the rune it went to 18s.

I think the maximum duration of auras was increased some time after they added the GM warrior trait to make leap finishers trigger twice, as people pointed out it did absolutely nothing in 4/9 combo fields.

They didn’t refund anyone who purchased 2 of the same ascended trinkets only to find out you can’t use trinkets of the same name. I’d say your out of luck..but congrats on your new purchase of radiant runes.

They won’t refund you but they will exchange if you got the wrong one.
