yes, it was "nerfed" in the last patch, now you need to be already in combat for it to proc, pretty bad idea to nerf it like this imho1 -

Is that the case now? Wow! I have not tested this, as soon as I saw the PTS patch notes I left it in the bank to collect dust, now seems like it will be good only for decon after I can confirm this by actual testing.
Anyone else see the buff going away after swapping bars?
Will this affect sets like Sunderflame and Briarheart too?

I just tested it and this is not the case. The buff stays even after swapping to a bar whithout the 5 piece bonus.DAGON - ALTADOON - CHIM - GHARTOK

✭You also need to sacrifice a pidgeon to the ESO potion gods so that they actually go off when you hit the button instead of just make the noise as if they did, when they actually did not.1 -

✭✭✭Instead of dealing with an add on that only affected 1 platform they took the easy way out and just nerfed the set instead.

Yes please do. I don't imagine them nerfing NBs or destro staff ganking because the easy fix wasn't thought more in advance.
The right move was to review the API and limit what you could do with it, not nerf the set.Minno - DC - Forum-plar Extraordinaire

I use the set on backbar on stamplar. PotL puts me in combat and I can swap to front bar which is just 3 piece CA without losing the buff.

People could already do that before though.
And they didnt touch that aspect. It changes nothing at all for those using it mid combat.
It only changes for those using it to prebuff and gank which again, is what they dont want the set to be used for.2 -

Actually they just didn't like how PC players could use the buff, then use an add-on to immediately change all gear to another set while still maintaining the buff.
It had nothing to do with playstyles0 -

That and I think based on the stats they intended the set to be more of a hybrid brawler set. 2pc health is a good indication of that design intent.Minno - DC - Forum-plar Extraordinaire

The addon thing was one reason.
They also said that they want the set to be used strategically mid combat and not as a ganking set. I didnt make this up. They said it. So yeah it absolutely has everything to do with playstyles as well.0 -
