Magelight not fixed on console?

I may be wrong but I could have sworn I watched a BSW build video not long ago and the guy said Inner light now gives crit & magicka buff for both bars even when slotted on just one on PC, can anyone confirm or deny? It still has to be slotted on both bars on console.

    What do you mean not fixed? It would be broken if it worked like that. Think you're confused over the fact it removed the potion buff if you changed bars etc and didn't have it on both bars. That was the issue that is now fixed.

    You're close but you got it a bit confused.

    • Magelight provides Major Prophecy (Spell Crit buff) but only for the bar it's slotted on

    • Inner Light provides Major Prophecy (Spell Crit buff) AND a Max Magicka buff but only for the bar it's slotted on

    • Spell Pots grant Major Prophecy (Spell Crit buff) and Major Sorcery (Spell Damage buff) for both bars

    There was a bug prior to Homestead that caused the Magelight/Inner Light version of Major Prophecy to cancel out the Spell Pot's version of Major Prophecy.

    In other words, if you only slotted Magelight/Inner Light on one bar, your Major Prophecy buff would only remain active on that bar even if you used a Spell Pot.

    Magelight/Innerlight no longer cancels out the Major Prophecy buff granted by Spell Pots.

    Ohh ok. Thank you.

    Not true. If you watch any of the build videos from the PC guys like Yolo for example Inner Light is now only required on one bar(pc only). In fact Yolo even points it out in his video showing the stars being effected by inner light for bar 2 even with it only slotted on bar 1. As usual we the console users are getting the shaft.

    What was this post all about then? Scroll to the inner light or bound aegis section.

    "Inner Light vs Bound Aegis: Bound Aegis would give us an additional 1% magicka. However, we would have to double slot it, Inner Light needs to be slotted on one bar only, which opens a slot for a SHIELD (Hardened Ward) which both protects you and your pet!"
    @ZOS_GinaBruno what's the story?

    Basically he is saying if you slot inner light, you only really need it on bar 1 because that's your damage bar. It still doesn't count for bar 2.

    However if you slot aegis, you have to double slot it because if you don't you will have to cast it each time you swap back to the main bar (for the bonus).

    Agree with this.

    E.g. Mag dk - innler light main bar and in place of it on back bar the mag dk spell crit move(high dmg) - completely forgot the name of the move.
    That's just an example.

    No he's not. He's saying you get the bonus on both bars, with it only slotted on one. Its pretty clear, and its not just @Alcast saying it.

    Some people asked me to test magelight again on live server. I havent done it so far but will try to do it as soon as possible. It worked fine on PTS.

    I'm hoping it does. The build is pretty awesome, although you are right about exploiter and target skeletons not working. I'm thinking about migrating to pet sorc until the bugs get worked out. And if inner light only needs one bar, that is a game changer!
