I hope this is a bug. It should be at least. If your sprite isn't there, how can it be buffing you?
OOO, please give a statement whether this is a glitch or not.

EDIT: I decided to send a support ticket asking whether this was intended behavior or not.

Quoting GM Hyperion: "Greetings,

It's not intended behavior, no - we're aware that it's happening, and are
working to correct it. Sorry for the confusion!"

Thanks very much Hyperion.

Yeah, we could use some knowing.

I think a bump here might or might not be justified.

Well, I don't see how this bug can hurt...

Has anyone confirmed this, so far? I'm talking about properly confirming it, not just counting heart pips. I tried out hazewalking as a guardian wearing mercurial + high shock perk. That should make me immune to voltaic tempest, right? It didn't. I suspect this bug only affects health perks.

I suggest testing msi. Seems like it would be easy to test, but I don't have it as of yet, so as such I cannot test that myself.

Any weapon perk is simple. Equip it, go to LD and inspect yourself. Just remember to also take into account class bonuses.

Inspection won't do it. The inspection screen told me I had as much shock resist as I had fire resist, which was also the case outside of LD.

@Thecomposer
That's the thing, I haven't felt like I've been using MSI VH in Lockdown. When I get out of LD and run clockworks, I feel a lot faster.

The easiest way to confirm it would be to make two loadouts: One with a damage bonus for guns perk, and one without it. Test both on the slush puppy in that one map that has a slush puppy.

Curse timer/amount of weapons affected with a Faust charge?

maybe...

Has anyone considered the notion that the real bug is that battle sprites aren't allowed in LD?

I had Mitzy-Ro do the thing with the slush puppy, and he confirmed my suspicions: Only the heart perk actually does anything.

My friend has been using the ASI low perk to his advantage in Tier 3 Lockdown.

A load is taken off my shoulders. Thanks for the response, Hyperion!

I hope they fix the bug, because even if I didn't equip my battle sprite for LD with an MSI low perk, it still takes effect on my knight for lockdown. Do people know this already?
