Draconic Loyalist's Visage damage resist bug

walker

Hi there, I've tested wearing the Draconic Loyalist's Visage headpiece while using a Dragonborn Brawler companion. You get an effect called Draconic Survival, and the effect description says it's giving damage resist. However it's not actually giving any damage resist - could you please fix this?

As an extra request, please please add % damage increase and % damage resist levels to the character stats page so we can more easily see what's going on with these.

Much appreciated,
Walker

Hey, are ANY damage resist % effects working in the game? I've come across quite a few references that suggest they may all be doing nothing right now.

That's a crazy major problem, those are key top tier benefits. Just how long has this gone on without it being repaired, or even acknowledged??

Just a few example references:

There’s a lot of stuff in game now that is broken . It appears that when you change a whole combat system and levelling in a game , that it affects a whole lot of things ( gear , enchantment, etc ) .
Who would’ve thunk ? SMH
As of now with some of my items not working or working very sporadically, I’m a NW invoker till they fix this incredibly bugged new system .
Can’t wait for mod 20 , yelp!

Here's an update on this issue. I just recently retested this, using a mythic dragonborn brawler.

This damage resist effect is now working, reducing damage by roughly 3.7 percent with the mythic brawler. Thanks very much for the fix, appreciated!

Really not sure why these issues don't get reported in patch notes? Or maybe I missed it somewhere, but thanks to the dev team all the same.

Just a follow up comment for min-max players: no this isn't a new best in slot option. There are certainly stronger active companions and stronger active companion benefits to choose from, and stronger helmets.

But is it at least useful now that it's working? Yes. And is it fun to try out? Yes, yes it is. 8)
