Hey guys
A couple of questions someone may know the answer to:
I was having a read of
@thefabricant 's old pally guide and he tested Impassioned Pleas and found it didn't improve Divine Call at all. That was about 15 months ago and I've had a search to see if there was ever a fix but didn't find one. Has anyone tested it recently to see if it was ever fixed?
Als, Bound By Light - this wasn't shown as tested but I currently have 5 points in it but it doesn't reflect on my stats. Does anyone know if this is bugged at all? Running TW & BL means that a boost to CC can be handy with trash mobs and I find the alternative feat choice of Swift Flash to be kinda 'meh'...

Comments
On Impassioned Pleas, Thefabricant said:
"I spent about 30 minutes testing this ability and have come to the conclusion it does nothing, for either dev or prot. My methodology was to do a full respec and take off all gear except for a weapon with no weapon enchantment, then to spec feats up till impassioned pleas and then to spam divine call 3 times so it was empty and then bash dummies with the same at will and count how many hits it took to full all 3 pips. After doing this with and without impassioned pleas, I can safely say the feat does nothing. If anyone has any information to contradict me here, please say so. However, due to these results, I would recommend not using this feat."
It's about 15 months old but you can see his guide here

Admittedly it's a case of choosing between two less than ideal options but the community in general benefits if we at least know which feats work and which don't.

Recent testing says it works, but that it is negligible.
Thanks to Michela123 for the recent testing.

I now have 3 pts in Weapon Mastery & 1 in Wrathful Strikes. I also took 2 points out of Prism (following my own previous advice) and put 1 in Beacon of Hope (it's there to proc the outgoing healing, not to actually do much healing) and 1 in Purifying Fire because well, why not lol.
So far I do notice a little slow down in Divine Call gain but it's not serious. I do feel that my dps has bumped upward slightly but the real test of course will be in a dungeon.
