Before the storm patch, when using 3 bonding stones all 3 will eventually work depending on how fast your pet attacks and if your rng activates the bonding stone. However after the patch only 1 stone can proc now? Not sure if this was intended or just a bug. Please help

    Since you've been so helpful on the forums and you deserve help....here we go. They all proc in one hit now.

    From the patch notes....

    "Bonding Runestones now grant their combined effect in a single stack.
    For example, if a summoned companion has two Bonding Runestones (Rank 12, 95% each) equipped, the related buff now gives the player 190% of the summoned companion's current stats.
    This effect no longer stacks."

    I see, so that icon I see under my char is the combined % of all my bonding stones added together? Would like some confirmation from other players

    The patch notes explain the bonding stone change.

    1 rank 12 = 95% stats
    2 rank 12s = 190% stats
    3 rank 12s = 285% stats

    As stated above.
    They did this because the way it was functioning before, if your companion went down, revived, and reinstated the buff before the previous stack expired, it could go past three.
    Using the merc, I've personally seen it hit 8 before.

    Now, only one and done.
    I believe it will refresh if reapplied, but no more stacking.

    I can attest to that. I use 3 rank 8s on my Yeti and it was crazy when that would happen in Demo Master.
