GF Main Tank Skill 'Aggravating Strike' Enchantments Completely Nonworking

Imagine my disbelief when I decided to get an enchantment for my Guardian Fighter. I get Plaguefire thinking that is going to help my team to do damage by stacking Defense Reduction debuff on grouped together mobs constantly... I was so excited...

I changed my spec to Protector again because I feel like Conqueror is for baddies and if I am a Protector then I can hold agro better, allowing our DPS to go crazy and maximize damage.

I get to Malabog's Castle and we're just clearing trash mobs. I'm not seeing the Damage Over Time ticking but I just figured it wasn't showing them so that it could show all of the higher numbers from all the enemies I was tanking...

Then we get to the first boss, tanking it I am actually looking at the Debuffs, I thought wow, I just don't see it on here, there should be a 1, 2, 3 stack but there's nothing. I decide to mouse over some of the skills right after I hit it and again there is nothing.

So then I switch to cleave and start hitting with Cleave and it's procing the debuff on the enemy and at this moment I am nearly livid. It is clear to me that Weapon Enchantments are absolutely, 100% useless on a tanking speced GF and this made me feel like all I have done is a monumental waste of time.

It now occurs to me why almost every GF I have ever seen is a Conquerer, it is because the Defensive aspects of GF are so useless and bugged right now that there is no value in it at all. Ohh I could use cleave but that is not why I play a GF.

I decided to make a GF in order to tank, not to be some wannabe DPS. I just absolutely can not believe this bug and how I now know that the Protector Tank GF that I want to be is just not going to happen. I am being strong-armed into being an idiot Conqueror trying to do DPS and that is no place someone who wants to be valuable to a team should be.

This bug must be fixed post-haste. I am aware there are several bugs but I feel that this should be moved WAY UP to the priority chain because I can deal with your Guard Block Feat Bugs that make it useless to increase your Guard Block but I can not deal with not having any Enchantments on my weapons while I do no damage anyways.

Cheers!
