DC encounter Empowered - Break the Spirit does not increase the caster's damage

kacsanever

As the title states, empowered BtS (Bolster Spirit) does not increase the caster's damage (the buff icon is shown). I did not test it on other toon.
E - Forgmaster's Flame works as I think it should: the caster gets (max 15%) damage increase.

Nope, it sure doesn't. And it seems to me like divine Divine Glow isn't working either. Just tested this myself. People told me I shouldn't use Prophecy of Doom and use Break the Spirit instead, but if it's not going to actually increase anyone's damage, why bother?

I also tested Divine Glow. It works but it is buged. It grants 10% increased damage / stack in divine mode instead of 5%. BtS does nothing in empowered mode. I really dont know how it was internally tested.
So at the moment the 3 buff (damage increase) works as follows:
E - Forgemaster's Flame: 5%/stack, max 15% - correct
D - Divine Glow: 10%/stack, max 30% - incorrect, it shall be 5%/stack
E - Break the Spirit: +0%/stack - incorrect, it shall be 10%/stack, max 30%

I tested the debuffs, all work correctly (both are rank3 and PoD 3 stacks Empowered):
N - Divine Glow: 10% Damage Resistance debuff
N - Prophecy of Doom: 15% Damage Resistance debuff (edited: it is 15% at rank3)
E - Prophecy of Doom: 25% Damage Resistance debuff

There are numerous bug reports concerning these DC encounters:
- Break the Spirit (no party dps buff applied)
- Forgemasters Flame (although this does appear to be working as expected / stated in the tooltip)
- Divine Glow (not applying Plaguefire debuff, and inaccurate party buff vs tooltip)
- Prophecy of Doom (inaccurate debuff vs tooltip)
- Sunburst

Can someone please consolidate all these posts, that it is easier to get feedback on these issues?
Can a Dev please acknowledge these, and advise where we can see feedback, and when they will be reviewed and fixed?

Thanks.

I think part of the problem is that there are inconsistent places where bugs are reported, and I was finding it difficult to find a single thread where any fixes were confirmed (or otherwise).

Thank you for your responses, I am glad to see the encounters are working accurately. It will probably save me time if I merely test the encounters myself.

Cheers.
