Pulsar and Minor Mangle - Is It Bugged?

Aletheion · October 2015

When using Pulsar (morph of Impulse) which grants Minor Mangle reducing the enemies Max Health by 10% for 33 seconds, an enemy's health number (via addons) doesn't drop by 10% and total damage required to kill the enemy is still 100% of their total initial health. Hitting a creature with 100k health with Pulsar still requires 100k damage to kill them even within 33 seconds. Shouldn't it only require 90k damage to kill them if it's within 33 seconds?

Am I not understanding something or is this debuff bugged?

It's been bugged since the patch. I had to cast it two or three times before it took. I've altered my attack style and now hit with a light attack and then hit with Pulsar. So far, this tactic has worked without having to recast Pulsar.

This happens to me, too. I already switched back to Elemental Ring to avoid this issue.

It's only shows the Visual effect and doesn't apply the debuff it self.
