Using the broom gives the damage reduction buff. It also stacks, so using the broom multiple times adds duration to the boon.
i wanna know if its intendeed to do so or if its a glitch by anet. dunno if we should use it else… XD noticed it yesterday would be nice if anet employeer could give us a answer to weather its gonna be a mass bann on ppl doing this in wvw or if its gonna be fine.
Does it sound too good to be true?
I’m 99.9% certain it’s unintended (why does costume brawl need 5% damage reduction?), and that ANet doesn’t want people to use it.

This is exactly why I am not using my broom outside of events that will involve me fighting.
Don’t do it. Don’t abuse this in WvW or PvE.
It’s obviously unintended. Hopefully they’ll see the priority of this issue and respond quickly.

I reported it in-game as well as here before shelving my broom (and by that I mean burying it in my pockets), personally.
I don’t want to be on the business end of ANet’s backhand.
can you equip/unequip/equip/unequip/equip/etc. and get 5 hours of dmg reduction, then keep it while doing pve stuff? actually, I would expect it to go away if you change zones or wp, so nm.
hahaha… working as intended

It didn’t. It was the actual boon for using the damage reduction item. And yes, the duration stacked.
This last mini-patch appears to have fixed it.
