Guild Wars 2

EDIT: I’m basically going to put what the issue is up top and leave the original post at the bottom, since people will misconstrue this report.

The issue at hand is that the patch notes as of April 15th detailing the change to Runes of Altruism never got pushed through to the production servers. That variant is as detailed:

Superior Rune of Altruism

(1):25 Healing
(2):When using a heal skill, grant 3 stacks of might to nearby allies for 8 seconds. (Cooldown: 10 seconds)
(3):50 Healing
(4):10% Boon Duration
(5):100 Healing
(6):When you use a heal skill, grant fury to nearby allies for 8 seconds. (Cooldown: 10 seconds)

The version currently on live servers is:

(1): +25 Healing
(2): When you use a heal skill, grant 3 stacks of Might to nearby allies for 8 seconds. (Cooldown: 10s)
(3): +50 Healing
(4): +10% Boon Duration
(5): +100 Healing
(6): When you use a heal skill , grant Fury to nearby allies for 5 seconds. (Cooldown: 10s)

There is a clear discrepancy here (I won’t even go in to the details of the actual cooldowns for the current live servers, as that won’t even be an issue once the correct version of these runes is pushed out), and I’m hoping it’s rectified sooner rather than later.

Original post:

So, I use these on my engineer, and with the recent patch, it shouldn’t be hard to acquire permanent fury simply by using medkit. Nope – still giving a duration far shorter than 8 seconds, and I’m just reporting that this value is different from what is described in the patch notes. Feels like the pre-patch values. The might is also lasting around 15 seconds, which coincides with this theory.

This isn’t a pointless necro, it’s just me bumping this thread because the bug still exists, and I’d rather just bring this one back around than create an entirely new thread. Please address the issue, it’s still using the pre-April 15th effects and not the ones listed in the April 15th patch notes.

it says 5 second on the rune discription in game…
I think it will follow what ever says in the game instead of on the update posting!

I’m aware of that, but they posted in the patch notes that it would be changed, and it still hasn’t.

Bumping because another patch has gone by where the runes haven’t been updated. Please don’t flag this as a pointless necro or bump spam (is bumping with every hotfix patch where it remains unaddressed spam?), it’s a real bug that has yet to be addressed.

Another month, another big patch, another lack of proper updating.

Logged in after the patch today. Still no fix. Not trying to be snarky, but I can’t really help it anymore. Remember when companies actually pushed through changes that are listed in the patch notes? This is getting completely absurd.

I didn’t post as recently as I did the past few times because I have been a little stormed with work this past few weeks. Now that I’ve got time again, bumping because runes still haven’t been updated.
