Thanks for the bug report on Power Lash. The video you included was especially helpful. We have a fix planned for this ability in a future PTS incremental patch.

After the fix is deployed, Power Lash will match its current behavior on the Live servers - it will stun monsters (and grant them CC-immunity), but will not stun players (nor grant them CC-immunity). The tooltip of this ability will be updated to better reflect this functionality.

Coming through in the clutch. Thanks, fam.

Good to hear, glad I could help.

@ZOS_KNowak Thanks, while you're working on the DK... Reflective Scales is using the DK's own Hardy/Elemental defender from the champion system to mitigate the reflected projectile, then the projectile hits the player and gets mitigated again by his Hardy/Elemental Defender. This is probably due to the way Hardy/Elemental works over top of shields. It mitigates before it is considered a hit. I hope you can fix it because the skill is no longer a threat after it's mitigated twice.

How long has that been happening?

Edit. I found my post from when I tested it here I tested it on July 10th. Here is a reproduction of my notes on the test.

With 59 in elemental defender I reflected a shard for 7908.
with 0 in elemental defender I reflected the same shard for 8592

Tested against sorc shield. Elemental defender shows 17.3%, however the reflect is being mitigated by exactly 8.65% which is also exactly half of 17.3%. I have no idea why it mitigates at half.

I have also heard of some more bugs, but not tested them personally.

• stealth shots go through and do damage
• Defiles like dark flare go through even when reflected (confirmed)
• Someone said 1 morph of snipe goes through.
• I have seen non snipe arrows repeatedly go through it

If anyone can verify the above or add to it please speak up. I thought I would never hear the day that DK's would talk about taking reflect off their bar and now they tell me it's useless. #rip DK, like we don't have enough problems.

I think since TG. I discovered it between TG and DB. I was wondering why no one cares about my wings being up and how little damage they did so I had to check it out. I think it started when hardy/elemental started going over shields. Which I followed up to TG release. Could go back further. To test it I had someone shoot me and noted the reflected damage then I removed all my Elemental defender and noted the reflect and the damage went up by half of my listed elemental defender value. Not sure why it's half, maybe it's secretly nerfed in pvp. I tested armor mitigation and it wasn't affecting reflect but your penetration level does affect it.

I can vouch for the defile going through. It has been that way for a long time, and I believe it has been explained because the defile is not attached to the damage component being reflected as it is attached to the AoE splash debuff.

I'll look into the other issues this week.
