Guild Wars 2

The first one is about the Fern Hound’s F2 skill, Regenerate.

I’m currently spec’d and geared into 20% Boon Duration and 48% Regeneration Duration. When I mouse over the F2 skill, the tooltip says Regen(12s), however the buff applied is still only the base 10sec. So two things here, obviously the tooltip not matching the actual buff is a bug, but also, Regeneration Duration isn’t being applied in either case.

It’s hard to say exactly what is supposed to be happening here. One could suggest that the Regeneration Duration is only suppose to affect abilities that I use, and not those of my pet, but then why the change to the F2 tooltip courtesy of my +Boon Duration? Also, the applied still buff labels my character as the source, not my pet, so I don’t see why the +Regen shouldn’t kick in.

After further testing, it looks like the same is true for all pet buffs, the tooltip shows and improved duration, but the actual buff is unaffected.

One exception is the Blue Moa’s Protecting Screech. My tooltip says 12sec, but the actual buff is more like 3-4 sec.
