Howling MH/OH Bonus (Spinward): Does not work for SW sprint

I finally reached 100 motes in spinward wise and got the Howling pact blade/grimoire.
Sadly the set bonus does not work for scourge warlock.

The icon "Howling Heart ready" does not disappear when I shift like it does for other classes when the bonus activates and there is no speed bonus at all from it no matter what I do. Very disappointing. I went ahead and farmed it, encouraged, after seeing these words from a dev regarding the the Howling/spinward set bonus:

To be clear, despite the wording, this will activate when any shift power is used, Warlock and Great Weapon Fighter's sprints included. Thanks for the report, we'll look into making sure the text is more clear.

    I was worried this would happen. I saw that dev post myself and was a little skeptical that it would work...

    I wonder if the set bonus works for GWF sprint.

    thats the problem you didnt read the dev speak correctly. he obviously meant it didnt work with those but farm it anyway

    Right. Exactly what I said weeks ago before mod8 launched: http://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/neverwinter/#/discussion/comment/12747760

    We cannot do preview MH/OH feedback reporting on the set bonuses since we cannot farm them in any reasonable time. Wish they would put these on the Store/Preview tab like did for older artifact weapon sets.

    Allowing access for preview testing would have prevented all of the following from going live:
    - Double healing from Water weapon bonus
    - Broken no cooldown "Ring of Cowardice" permarepelroot
    - Broken Air weapon bonus for SW maybe GWF sprint
    - Glitchy DR build-up from Earth weapon bonus
    ...and a few more

    how so. it would have been added to the known issues list and the release would have gone on like contractually obligated.

    What's wrong with permanent double healing? Just because double-RP is only on the rare weekend doesn't mean healing has to be....
