Just wondering outta curiosity if anyone else out there has gotw rank 3...that actually buffs for what is says : to increase armor by 459...increase attributes by 18 and resistances by 33)

My gotw rank 3 buff when cast (and you put your curser over the buff in the upper right hand corner of your screen) only increases armor by 340, attributes by 14, and resistances by 25...

Im soo confused....anyone know anything about this or am i just buggy?

Buff tooltips are not updated for talente-increased buffs.

You get the same bonuses as it says in the spell tooltip, but Blizzard is too lazy to make the buff tooltip change.


Edit: Go cast MotW on yourself and check your resistances. They'll go up by 33.

I don't think it has anything to do with laziness.

It's a very old topic and I believe I once blamed it on Blizzard being lazy as well, to which someone with a lot more knowledge on the subject told me that for it to be possible, the amount of calculation needed would cause the game to crash or something like that.

Anyway, I don't think they've done it out of laziness.

They couldn't make a separate buff tooltip for all the talented ranks of each level of a buff?

I can see that taking up some space, and just being a useless pain, but not near enough to crash the game.
