Bloody Brawler does Nothing

Bloody Brawler, the first Scoundrel Paragon Feat, does not increase LifeSteal.

I thought that maybe it just increased the lifesteal stat by 2.5%, but that's apparently not so, too:

    I'm positive I tested this on preview and it was working, but I already had 1000+ lifesteal from pvp set. Try putting some lifesteal on first of all and see if it multiplies it by 2.5%. It could be that is worded poorly and is not a straight 2.5% addition.

    Edit: didnt see the comment above your last pic... The only other thing I can think of is you need more than 84 lifesteal to test it. Coz that will surely be less than 1%?

    I'm pretty sure it works, but I had to relog to make it show on my damage gained as hp % (not the life steal stat).

    Try logoff/logon and see if anything changes! :)

    Alright, so I took it on faith that y'all were right, because I remembered seeing a +2.5% on my Scoundrel on Live. But, I then respeced to Executioner and took Bloody Brawler, and found that, even after relogging plenty of times, I'm not getting the 2.5% increase. I put on my detective hat, and found something interesting.

    Alright, we all know the drill: doesn't work with just 5 points in Bloody Brawler. How was I getting it to work, then?

    Aha! Putting points into the other T1 Scoundrel slot gives me the benefits of Bloody Brawler! What if... hmmmm.

    Yep; Bloody Brawler works based on the number of points that you have in the deflection feat instead of in Bloody Brawler. In order to get lifesteal from the deflection feat, you need to put a point in BB, but that's all, and you get full benefit from it!

    Hey devs: could you fix this, please? Else I'mma just have to respec again and get a "free" 2% Lifesteal!

    Nice find! That's why I was getting the +LS, I have both feats on live :)

    Doesn't that still make it a bug? I want the bloody brawler feat without putting points into ANOTHER feat...that's just r*tarded

    It's far from the first time in this game that a feat or power has looked at your ranks in a different feat or power instead of itself.

    Yes, it's a bug. Since mrmauveforum has figured out exactly how it's broken, it should also be a relatively simple fix.
