Eldritch Runestone Not Giving % Bonus w/Ioun Stone of Allure?

edited October 2013 in Bug Reports (PC)
I had a Eldritch Rank 7 in my Ioun Stone of Allure and it was giving it's 8.5% bonus. I unequipped it, and the bonus went away... Naturally. I then slotted in a Rank 8, which should give 9% bonus stats, and it is not working at all now... Event wasted AD unslotting and reslotting both. Neither gives it's bonus... Is this something that is known about?

    I am having the same issue. On my TR. I am continuing to receive the Eldritch rune bonus from the defensive slot. However, on my defensive slot. I am not. The Ioun Stone on my TR is a month and a half, or so, old. The CW is fairly new and the stone was just recently added. Is there currently a bug or a recent change to Ioun Stones of Allure that prevent the %gain from being added? Hope this gets looked into.

    Thanks!

    I have a TR with lvl 7 Eldritch in the Defensive slot and i get the bonus. When I equip an item with +150 Power, I get around 162 extra power which is correct.
    It does work for someone but not for everybody.
    I talked to someone couple days ago and she had the same problem that you guys having.

    I can confirm what plasid8 said about old and new stones/ cats. My DC's cat (about 2 months old) receives the % bonus from the Eldritch runestone in the Defense slot, but my GF's cat (2 weeks old) does not give the bonus.

    Not that I am happy about the bug/issue, but knowing that others are having a similar problem shows me their is a serious issue.

    Devs, could we please get this fixed ASAP? I'm, obviously, unsure of how complicated it may be tech wise, however we would all really appreciate it! Thanks in advance! :)

    Noticed exact same problem with the blue stone several days ago. Used a rank 7 Eldritch - NO effect on stats whatsoever.

    I have a Cleric with Stone and I just verified that my Eldritch 7 is indeed working. If i remove the icon from the campanion the main stat on the character sheet is reduced my the amount in the icon + 8.5% ... so its working...at least for me....check how u calculate like i did and see if it makes a diff.

    Does the math work out to justify the use of Eldritch? For every 1000 points in stats you get x10 the percentage. So, 8.5 will give you 85 points. I'm not sure how many points are on the stone to be had, less that one slot. If I recall, rank 7 rune gives 225 and to match that you would need about 2650. Even if you had that many points on companion, less the one slot, it would be divided up across the makeup of companion stats. So, IMO not worth it unless companion has more relevant stat points than a regular rune/enchant can give you. Having the 3 item slots filled could give you about 1800 on avg, 2000+ if you're rich. The 2 other companion slots at rank 7 would give another 450 and that makes you fall short or barely match the 2650 target number. The allure stone comes with personal stats (not sure how many), so depending on how much that is and if you spent a great deal of AD to boost the other items, you could come out slightly ahead.

    I can confirm it's now fixed. Today's patch must have done it.

    Not sure that is true. I have a rank 7 Eldritch Runestone on my Ioun stone and the math doesn't work. I just have the stats of the pet with no bonus. I checked this by making sure that campfire and other bonuses were off.

    I see that others are seeing the benefits, but it is not consistent.

    I see an icon under my character portrait indicating that I have this buff, but did not notice any changes to any of the numbers on my character sheet. I'm sure the gear score did not change, and don't think anything else changed either.

    Is the effect of the buff supposed to be reflected on the character sheet?

    I can also confirm this is not working. I just slotted in a rank 7 eldritch in the defensive slot and it has no affect on my stone stats. I've removed an item put it back and logged out and back in. No change to the numbers.

    *bump* I'd just like to say this is still a problem, as I just upgraded my Eldritch in my stone and now I do not receive the extra stats at all.

    Justifiable necro since this problem DOES still exist.

    My CW's cat has an Eldritch in a defense slot that has done nothing at all for months. At first I was waiting for a fix, then I suppose I was just too lazy to replace it with something else.

    Same bug for me with Eldritch in defense Slot not working. I have Eldritch in the 2 offense slots too, maybe the problem occurs only if u have eldritch in offense and defense Slot?

    Hello Sominator,

    any update on this? I've two CW's, both with the Ioun Stone of Allure. "One" has 3 Rank 7 Eldritch runestones in the two offensive and one defensive slot. "Two" has 2 Rank 7 Eldritch runestones in the two offensive and 1 Rank 8 Eldritch runestone in the defensive slot.

    On "One" I see the (second) buff icon from the Eldritch runestone under my character portrait and also the stats are what they should be (compared to calculation). Also the stat display on the Ioun Stone of Allure reflects the percentage added from the Eldritch runestone.

    On "Two" I do not see the (second) buff icon from the Eldritch runestone under my character portrait and also the stats are not what they should be (compared to calculation). Also the stat display on the Ioun Stone of Allure clearly shows that the percentage, which should be added from the Eldritch runestone, does not add up--meaning: after I placed the Eldritch runestone in the defense slot the numbers on the stats display of the Stone stayed the same.

    On "Two" I tried (nearly) everything to no avail:
    1. Dismiss & Summon
    2. Dismiss, Logout, Log back in & Summon
    3. Make Idle (and place it in the companion backpack) & put it back to the active companion slot
    4. Make Idle (and place it in the companion backpack), Logout, Log back in & put it back to an active companion slot
    5. Before I put in the Rank 8 Eldritch runestone, I went to the preview shard and tried it with a Rank 4 Eldritch runestone--which was not working as well

    The only thing, that I haven't tried is to unsocket the Eldritch runestone and put it back in.

    On second thought: there is one other thing, which I didn't tried out yet: I didn't check which active companion slot I'm using on "One" and on "Two" and I didn't put the Ioun Stone of Allure in a different active companion slot. Will do that later today and give you an update on it.

    It's getting a bit annoying, that I don't get the buff bonus on "Two", as I planned my runestones and enchantments accordingly and am missing those points to hit the soft cap :cool:

    Thanks for reading, hopefully answering & fixing it,

    Ok, yesterday evening I did some further test, which also didn't solve the problem:

    1. Compared the active companion slots of my 2 CW's "One" and "Two"--the Ioun Stone of Allure was in the same slot (the 1st) on both characters
    2. Dismiss
    3. Make Idle (and place it in the companion backpack)
    4. Logout
    5. Log back in
    6. put it back to a different active companion slot (the 2nd one)
    7. Summon
    8. => still don't get the 2nd buff icon (the one of the Eldritch runestone), stat increase is not displayed on my character stats nor on the stats of the companion

    I even switched instances/zones in between the putting away and placing it on a active companion slot again. Still no changes :(

    Take care,
