-Auras gained from combo fields no longer work with Elemental Shielding or Zephyr’s boon

Well there goes my 100% protection uptime ele build.

EDIT: This only effects fire auras not frost, my bad.

I’ve noted this too with my D/D and i’ve done a bit of testing. Comboing fire ring and magnetic grasp to trigger fire shield doesn’t work. It shows the message of fire shield but there’s no icon and no boons. What i have seen is that comboing with a staff to get frost armor triggers elemental shielding an zephyr’s boon. Looks like the problem is with magnetic grasp.

Hmm, interesting. That actually seems plausible, it seems a lot of the skills they attempted to fix in this patch actually ended up getting bugged in some way, so it seems possible the screwed up Magnetic Grasp’s combo finisher in the process of fixing its reliability.

You’re right, my bad.

I still think this was an intended nerf. It may have been warranted I just wish they were a little more transparent.

Just tested fire field + lightning leap (conjure skill) gives fire aura and the protection boon. Also fire aura from arcane resurrection is giving more than double the protection duration it use to.

At this point, intended or unintended I guess we just have to deal with this kitten cause I highly doubt it will ever be dealt with in a timely manor or even acknowledged.
