Glyph of Potion Boost not working? And does the glyph work with created poisons?

As I understand it, a glyph of potion boost does this: (quote) ''Increase the duration of potion effects by 3.1 seconds'' (I made a normal CP150 glyph of potion boost and enchanted a ring for the experiment)

Before I equipped the ring, I checked the see how long an essence of health gave me the major fortitude 20% health regen, and it said 28.7 seconds. After equipping the ring and checking the very same potion, it still said that the major fortitude would last for 28.7 seconds, instead of 31.8 seconds.

I tried making the same potion with the ring equipped and it made no difference.

Does this actually work? Because I checked my ''active affects'' after consuming the potion (with and without the ring equipped) and the timer was counting down from 28 seconds both times.

What am I missing?

Also does the potion boost glyph work on created poisons?

Thanks

    Oru Glyph is bugged, entirely. Both variations of that Glyph.

    I would like someone to prove what I just said wrong :)

    I just this second made the glyph of potion speed, which reduces potion cooldown (roughly 3 seconds) and that worked, I checked the cooldown time before and after I equipped the ring, BUT instead the cooldown was reduced by 5 seconds.

    AND ive just this second double checked, by equipping and unequipping the ring, and the cooldown time did not change.

    I agree with you, there is a bug!

    Very annoying!

    Yeah Alchemical Acceleration updates the tooltip appropriately but the cooldown reduction doesn't actually apply. It's the same with Potion Speed; tooltip is right but not the actual implementation of the effect. This issue has been around for months...

    they really need to fix it, surely they must be aware thought right? I'm experimenting with a few things and its a shame these glyphs don't work for me to try.

    At one point the glyph specified lower level and that meant tier not level.

    Have u checked it against lower than essences, like panacea, with cp150 glyph?

    Oh they are, several threads at minimum have been made over the course of those months so I have no doubt they know. Problem is actually FIXING it, as well as what priority it's been given.

    I don't think anyone is gonna use these effects for weak Potions and Poisons.

    I crafted both potion glyphs (gold) last week and then crafted weapon and spell power resulting in pots whose life span exceeded Cooldown by 10 seconds. Strangely the pre-existing pots in my bag also then assumed the same levels. Pots created before the glyphs were about 10 seconds lower than the Cooldown period.
