Battle spirit effect on armor sets
New to the game and I've heard mixed answers, the question is does battle spirit (50% damage and healing mitigation for Pvp) apply to armor sets? For example I was talking to a 501 cp last night about the vice canon of venom set, specifically the 5th armor set bonus which deals 15,000 poison damage over 15 seconds if attacking a target from stealth. He deduced that because of battle spirit in PvP, I would only deal half damage (7.5k) and receive half of THAT healing so 3.75k). However I tested it out on an ogrim in imperial city and it did about 800 dot per second and continued healing me for 15 seconds ( I don't know the amount of health or restored though since my health was full) So does anyone have a definite answer bc this is creeping me out a bit

✭✭✭✭✭Um... yes and no.
Some sets are effected(edit sob is affected? I can't remember atm) differently, I don't know if it's a bug or not. But I've read plenty on certain sets and how they are not reduced on pvp.
Fyi battle spirit reduces incoming damage on a player, not out going from a player, so you'll always do full damage on NPCsEdited by Waffennacht on July 22, 2016 9:55PM5 -

✭✭✭✭✭Things that heal based on damage or anything that does "x" based on "y" (where "x" and "y" are both normally affected by battle spirit) are not suppose to get hit twice with battle spirit.
Several skills that initially were hit with a "double nerf" of battle spirit have been changed accordingly, such as Puncturing Sweeps, Swallow Soul, Critical Rush, Radiant Glory etc..
The now infamous Malubeth set was getting double nerfed also and was fixed so that the healing portion, which is based off the damage portion no longer gets hit with the healing penalty since the damage is already reduced which should also be reducing the healing accordingly. That set however seems to be broken in some other way.
Long story short, if you see a set that is using the "x" based on "y" mechanic and it appears to be getting double whammy'd, you should report it.5
