control bonus on new "pet only" gear does not work

tested on dummy and live mob, same result

without pet summoned
freeze = 6 sec
steal time stun = 4 sec

with pet summoned and 2 "10% control bonus" items equipped (total = 20% control bonus)
freeze = 6s
steal time =4s

conclusion, control bonus is 100% broken.

    That bonus only works for normal companions and not augments. WAI.

    Well that is what I am not sure of. Is the %bonus on pet items meant to apply to the owner or the pet. I assumed they were meant to only apply to the pet but I suppose some clarification would be in order.

    It is pretty clear actually. Augments give you their health and ratings. Control bonus is not a rating. It's no bug.

    Actually, Control Bonus is a rating (see your Character profile: "ratings" tab). Just augment gives it`s owner only health and "old ratings". Only those ratings, that are on "stat" companion tab. While Control Bonus rating is the "new" rating, it gets not augmented to it`s owner.

    Hard to determine if it`s WAI or not without a System Designer clarification.

    That rating is not the same as the bonus on the ring. The rating "control bonus" is a integer that translates into a percentage of the stat "crowd control strength", the control bonus on the companion items is a direct bonus to the crowd control strength, so it is a stat bonus, not a ratings bonus. A rating bonus would be if it gave something like "+400 control bonus".

    This seems correct. I forgot non-listed "crowd control strength" stat.
    Hat off.

    PS Then it`s clearly WAI and non bug. Sorry.

    it's a stat on the ring. augments give every other stat, why not that one?

    bug obviously.

    edit: augs used to not give HP, they fixed that bug. need to fix control % too
