Guild Wars 2

It’s not working for me any longer.

It originally worked and extended the nourishment buff. Then about the time of server reset the duration was only 40 minutes left. whereas I have about 11 hours left of the metabolic primer still.

Any new food I consume isn’t having its duration extended.

AFAIS confirmed.

expectation:
“any food eaten while the primer is active will have the same remaining time…”

problem:
while it seems to work as intended upon the initial usage, it will stop extending its effect on food under certain (but usual) conditions during the anticipated 12h uptime of the metabolic primer effect.

how to reproduce:
encounter a server reset, or just exit client and log in again. this is apparently breaking it. the food consumed before logging out will have its lifetime shortened, while any new food consumed will not get any benefit from the (still running) metabolic primer.

somewhat unclear:
A sharpening stone remains unaffected by this, alas it´s still being categorized by the game as “nourishment”. the best use for this buff would be to have its effect spread on both, such as soups and sharpening stones/crystals etc.

remark:
no hard feelings, but wondering somewhat how this could pass QA (former test manager for some devices you may use regulary for communication).

“Sweet idea, lets push it out.. 3 lines of code? Golden. Let’s make some cash.”

[solved]
seems there was a silent server ? update. it works today as intended.

would still be good if the remark in my last post can be checked. i dont see any reason to buy the metabolic primer again (which is a pure convenience feature) unless it affects all buff food.

[reopen]
after the wvw reset (which occured with the metabolic primer active) consumed food will again disregard the remaining metabolic primer timer and go for its specific sustain time.

something is still wrong.

Same here… Any food eaten expires normally while the primer is active…

This problem is happening to me at present. Please fix ASAP. Thanks.
