Rationer perk not working for exp pots

I had the rationer perk slotted and drank an exp pot, but it did not get the 30 minutes added (instead I got 30+20 from provisioning passive).

It was functioning weirdly before, but it seems the "fix" broke it even further.

    Same here. Rationer is no longer applying to Psjiic Ambrosia, Aetherial Ambrosia or Mythic Aetherial Ambrosia.

    I've tried redistributing (resetting) all champion points, confirming, re-adding the points for the passive and re-slotting the Slottable. Still nothing.

    These items are tagged as Drinks and the Nord racial passive still buffs them by 15 minutes so Rationer should also effect them, but it does not.

    Fix asap please! These Drinks are not cheap!

    Yes, please fix. Just popped an aetherial ambrosia and got 50 mins. Have been chugging these since cp2. Rationer is broken.

    Please fix, those potions are expensive :)

    It appears this is intended per the patch notes.

    I'm pretty sure it is not. What happened previously is that you could get 1h20m (expected result) for an exp potion with the rationer perk but also sometimes 2h0m (not expected). Same with buff food, it could buff even more, 3h20m instead of the expected 2h50m.

    They fixed the calculations for the buff food, but broke it for exp pots.

    They literally say it is intended in the patch notes from today:

    "In practical terms, this means it will no longer extend the duration of EXP-boosting Ambrosia drinks or Alliance Skill-boosting War Torte foods. It will still provide additional duration for foods and drinks that have a stat-focused component, such as Hissmir Fish-Eye Rye. Note that the "Gourmand" and "Connoisseur" Provisioner passive skills will still increase the duration of all foods or drinks, respectively, including Ambrosias and War Tortes."

    Right it's indeed clear now. I am very certain that those lines were not in the patch notes 2 days ago. They just had the "Fixed a calculation error in the Rationer star’s effect.".

    Edit: actually checked, and they previously missed it in the patch notes. See here.

    Glad they've clarified, but sad to hear that is the new intended effect.
