GWF no longer gain determination

Until a few days ago, I had the same problem that many complain, the failure of the Tab key to become unstoppable. And this is a know bug, but...

Yesterday I had the idea of changing a class privilege to increase my DPS. I was placed in the first slot Destroyer and the second Bravery. Then I decide to replace Bravery with Wrathful Determination.
After the replacement, the character earns Determination very very slowly, so that I need at least 2-3 rotations of encounter powers to fill the Determination bar. The encounters for my rotation are q = Flourish, e = Restoring Strike r = Indomitable Battle Strike. Before inserting Wrathful Determination, only using Flourish, filled the Determination bar around 40%, rising to 75-80% with the full rotation q+e+r, now I can no longer gain determination as before and in fact the GWF is virtually unplayable. I have try to go back, changing Wrathful Determination with Bravery, but noting happens, the determination gain is still broken. Please investigate for this isssue and take a look for a solution to the problem, thanks.

    My GWF's determination seems to build randomly. Sometimes it goes up quick, other times, it doesn't budge.

    Whatever.

    I'm seeing the same, where my Determination bar randomly doesn't even budge, even when I've taken 70-80% of my entire health-bar in damage - it's getting me killed, a LOT. I've only just come back to the game, after a very long time away, and it feels like my primary character (which was fun to play) is practically useless now.

    Has it even been acknowledged as a bug, or is it "working as intended" to leave the GWF practically unplayable?

    I'm noticing a direct correlation between a lack of action on Determination and the amount of lag that I'm experiencing.

    I get the occasional rubber-banding (maybe once or twice a day for a few seconds), but generally my connection appears to be stable. I can move around in combat fine, but no amount of incoming damage, use of At-Will skills, Sprinting, etc results in my Determination bar moving when it decides to randomly break.

    I also have this problem with my DC. The divine power doesn't growing up constantly.. If you do damage with atwills, sometimes it works fine and then for the next 2-3 hits nothing. (Lance of faith)
    Mainclass: DC
    Mainchar: Mr. Shu
    :cool:

    No temporary HP, and Determination didn't move a pixel when this happened at the start of a fight:

    Powrie deals 4503 (10932) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.
    Powrie deals 8676 (10531) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.
    Powrie deals 8986 (10906) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.
    Powrie deals 9127 (11076) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.

    After that first round of attacks, I hoped I'd survive a second and that Determination would work - it worked (and went from nothing to full), but that next set of hits killed me before I could pop Unstoppable (I'd already popped a potion):

    Powrie deals 8549 (10377) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.
    Powrie deals 9950 (12077) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.
    Powrie deals 8850 (10742) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.
    Critical Hit! Powrie deals 12047 (14623) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.

    I have to say this is completely ruining the game for me, and I've only just come back from a long break away! :(

    I'm suffering the same issue. And not only this one, but many times I'm unable to activate unstoppable either, until I receive damage, which, in some cases, can be an instakill. Very annoying.

    3 times in a row I've failed a boss-fight, now, because Determination has failed to move when taking a LOT of damage.

    I've gone through an entire Stone of Health in a week, because I don't have access to the heal from Unstoppable when Determination doesn't work...

    And still happening, the game is practically unplayable as a GWF when it decides to do this......no Determination during the start of this fight-segment (it was on about 48% so just below the Unstoppable threshold):

    Witherer deals 3931 (4772) Fire Damage to you with Ranged Attack.
    Witherer deals 4128 (5011) Fire Damage to you with Ranged Attack.
    Witherer deals 4041 (4906) Fire Damage to you with Ranged Attack.
    [NPC] Runner: Kill 'em dead! Nice and quick!
    Runner deals 9396 (12631) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.
    Critical Hit! Runner deals 5683 (15283) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.
    Runner deals 7763 (10436) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.
    Critical Hit! Runner deals 11122 (14952) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.
    Witherer deals 4222 (5675) Fire Damage to you with Ranged Attack.
    Witherer deals 4394 (5906) Fire Damage to you with Ranged Attack.

    That last attack finally gave me a small amount of Determination, so I was finally able to pop Unstoppable but it barely helped since it was nowhere near 100% for the full bonus to HP and DR - in fact, given the damage once Unstoppable was up, I'm not sure there even was any DR...

    Your Unstoppable gives you 2946 (2934) HIt Points to you.
    Runner deals 7958 (11892) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.
    Runner deals 8557 (12786) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.
    Runner deals 7278 (10873) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.
    Runner deals 8503 (12706) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.
    [Error] You are injured.

    This is getting boring, and there appears to be no indication the major issue is even being looked at, never mind fixed.
