GF bugs?

I haven't had time to extensively test everything so i was hoping others could add their bug knowledge on this class, I know theres alot of GFs out there who have been kept in the dark and I'm trying to shed some light on some issues.

Please post here if you know of bugs that are not listed in this thread. and yes someone will say this should be in the bug reports, but these bugs as far as I know have already been posted there, I just want to try and list things so fellow GFs are informed before wasting respecs.

1. HEROIC FEAT: ARMOR SPECIALISATION - doesn't display on character sheet
2. TACTICIAN FEAT: UNITED - doesn't display on character sheet
3. ENCOUNTER: COMMANDER STRIKE - can not crit and does not scale with buffs/stats
4. ENCOUNTER: KNIGHTS CHALLENGE - will not activate if you press other abilities during its activation time.
5. ENCOUNTER: KNIGHTS VALOR - rank ups don't do anything?

    Bro. We know that.
    Problem is, that dev's dont give a chiet about minor bugs. Bah, they don't even try to fix game breaking bugs.
    So, it's pointless. With whole respect, really.

    i heard that shield warrior's wrath only works when under the effect of temp hitpoints, anyone can confirm this?

    I'm starting to thing that GF's have the most bugged up skills and feats. If you watched PW stream, seems like none of them play GF.

    Well I didn't really check the damage buff but the stacks are building up normally, I mean without the need to have temp HP.

    sadly my only 70 is a gf. they were GREAT back when the lvl cap was 60. now theyre garbage. i have decent gear score and get 1 shot by random HAMSTER in dungeons. waste of leveling time and no i wont make a new 70.

    And for the shield warrior's wrath again.

    I was actually ignoring this skill for a long time but I gave it a shot yesterday and it looks to work really nice!

    It's a great option when soloing because all you have to do is raise the shield, block few hits and the stacks are quickly building up. Another cool thing is that they last for a long time (15 seconds).

    So all in all it's a cool skill to have in hand.

    Look at your logs, you will notice the difference

    United works too
  • kemi1984kemi1984 Member Posts: 849 Arc User
    I've unequipped the Seldarine Cloak yesterday (gives 6 AC on Purple) and it did give me like 4 or 5% on the DR.
    So it works for me.

    Can't say anything about "United" as I'm a Protector. Never tried the Tactican path, guess I should give it a try someday.

  • grimahgrimah Member Posts: 1,658 Arc User
    6 AC is suppose to give 4% DR.

    if it only shows up on the logs, does this mean it doesnt apply to into the fray?

    Just ran another test, armor specialisation and stand united both work, but they dont show up on the character sheet.

    Now in the tactician tree does United affect the guardian fighter? I noticed I only have the tooltip in my buffs when in a party. I would love solid proof of this working. The reason I ask is because its counterpart directly above it rousing speech does affect the guardian fighter... and man do I love tactician!

    Shield Warrior's wrath does work, easy to test too.

    Guarded Assault + Guarded Assault artifact offhand power does not slow the enemy anymore sadly. (please fix arc)

    On a side note, armor specilization affects the amount of damage resistance/defense you gain from Armor class/Defense. A example would be 1000 defense rating is increased by this feat to 1150.
    On the other side of the coin, armor class is increased by % of damage resistance gained rounded up, this is hardly noticeable due to the game not altering you a tooltip in your stats page. (such as resistance ignored not showing up from our dex in the stats page either)

    Yeah I checked it yesterday and it does give 4% DR. But I can see this in the character stats so it must apply to the Fray.
    I'm sure I saw something like: 46% DR without the thing and 50% DR with it slotted.

    So as far as I'm concerned it's working fine.

    VM is a nice tanking daily due to given immunity (as you said, there are some exceptions that shouldn't really be there but! hence the OP title of bugs). The main issue here is it's casting time which takes AGES! that's why I'm sticking with TI and FR.

    AC has always worked fine, it's that the armor specialisation feat doesn't show up on the character sheet, which is the issue here.

    Armor specialization does work, but does not change tool-tip numbers.
    I confirmed on the bugs forum, along with a few others.
  • kemi1984kemi1984 Member Posts: 849 Arc User
    Well yeah, sorry guys I actually get that wrong. I thought you were talking about AC, duh.
    Anyway good to hear that it does work.

    I dug it up.
  • kemi1984kemi1984 Member Posts: 849 Arc User
    Thanks for that @deathbeez. Glad we have this one solved.
    But not at all happy about what you guys wrote about Toughness and Strength Focus.

    I mean, 4% increase for 3 points invested? Wouldn't call that game breaking for sure.

    Yeah, that was a massive let down for a conq build.
    The feats don't scale to mod 6 gear. These feats were designed back when char stats (i.e Str, Con) made a bigger difference.
    With higher power/HP contributions of mod6 gear, these feats are almost useless.
    You can tell the GF is an old original class because none of the feats scale well, kind of like clerics.

    Like I said in other threads, fix these feats to scale to new gear, and you have a working tank-class again.

    Hi all!
    I play on russian server, make some bug reports on RU forum, but i want to duplicate here.

    Griffon's Wrath - when use and after up shield, charge will wasted https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Idv6Zw3m1c
    Shield - not always really blocking when shield is up https://youtube.com/watch?v=5dKESPELfLU
    Steel defence - not working when GF resurrected with soulforged enchantment https://youtube.com/watch?v=z4_iV5cxELc
    Anvil of doom - not damaged when foe below or above you https://youtube.com/watch?v=S32H-lKhaBI
    Knight valor - when simultaneously die and taking damage GF will not resurrect with soulforged enchantment https://youtube.com/watch?v=eWA1o9F5JV4
    Knight valor - lvl 4 of this power not increase DR to damage, received from KV.
    Brawling warrior - not increased DR when KV is active.
    Into a fray - speed bonus duration are decreasing by elven battle enchantment and sylph pet.

    Sorry for my English, I speak on it not very good.

    Is this still the case in current mod? Video is still lvl 60 so probably old mod? Sometimes when Steel Defense doesn't activate I just replace it with another passive then replace it again with steel defense. Would be nice if we were all aware of all the bugs so we can avoid them if possible.

    in mod 6, lvl 60 because there applied autoleveling in tyrany of dragons locations
    to avoid this it need activate daily after 1 sec when resurrecting

    Is anyone else seeing delayed animations when attacking with weapon masters strike. It is not very fluent and choppy like it wants to cancel itself out. It could also be because I pull 3-4 mobs at a time and its a bit much to decide whom to hit in a wad of targets.
