  I've been looking everywhere for an answer and I've come up empty. Hopefully it's just a bug.

  Seeing as how the thread was moved from General to the PVE discussion section, and not the bug reporting section, I'm starting to think this was an intended, unannounced change. Which is unfortunate.

  so far, looks like it to me.
  
  If it were a bug, something to do with the companion level increase perhaps... it would be affecting all companions, not just augments that transfer their stats to the player. Given the fact that the new Legendary companion upgrades make your companions transfer some of their stats, I think they did this, in part, to make upgrading other companions to legendary (and actually using them actively) more desirable or something. That, along with the fact that legendary companions can now rez themselves, I have to assume it's all intended.
  
  This really sucks.

  So I've checked Ioun stones I have on four characters, two different accounts, and all the inherent stats, except HP, are now gone. also checking the Cat augment in the woundrous bazaar, and all the augments for sale in the AH, tool tip on mouse over for all of them shows only their HP and active bonus. No stats.
  
  Is this a bug, or did they stealth change augments without saying anything?
  
  I had plenty of time to read the patch notes today during the down time and didn't see any changes to augments mentioned. Also perused through the PTS patch notes, finding no mention there either. If this isn't a bug, it really stinks b/c For me at least, augments are significantly less appealing without the default stat boosts.

  
  From the dev tracker:

  Hopefully someone can answer this before commi zeb removes it. Healer Companion (the old one, the chick) level 35 pruple, is the power unlocked at 35 purple or 35 legendary. I'm guessing legendary since this seems to be a forbidden quesiton.
