Guild Wars 2

For example, the Warrior Defense line minor trait “Armored Attack” (converts 10% of your toughness to power) no longer works with buffs that increase toughness, like Dolyak Signet (180 toughness passive) and Strength in Numbers (150 toughness AOE buff from Guardians).

I test it today with Dolyak signet both on and off cooldown, and my power in my character sheet was the same both times. Pre-patch, Dolyak was increasing my power when it was providing the passive boost.

Is this intentional? I don’t know if it effects other classes as well, I’ve only checked my warrior so far. This is accounting for a 20-50 pt stat reduction, depending on the situation.

I don’t know about other classes, but I can tell you that for the Engineer, Energized Armor (gain power based on toughness) does NOT count the Juggernaut extra toughness when determining power boost.

Been using it for a few months as I run cavalier trinkets.

Edit: Quick test with Energized Armor
Ate some Zucchini Bread with the trait, which provides 50 vitality and 40 toughness, I gained 2+ power.

I would hazard a guess that the traits probably universally work with consumables, but not traits and other temporary skill buffs as intended behavior.
