I'll preface this by saying that this is a bit of an edge case (see the "Mitigating factors" section at the end), but I thought I'd report it anyway for the sake of completeness.
Steps to reproduce:
- Gather three players.
- Player A has Standard of Might
- Player B has Dragonknight Standard (unmorphed)
- Player C is the test subject
- Arrange the players so that Players A and B are standing about 10-12 meters apart, and Player C is standing in the middle between Players A and B
- Player A casts Standard of Might
- After about 5 seconds, Player B casts Dragonknight Standard
- Observe the buffs on Player C
Expected results:
Player C, who is standing in the Venn diagram overlap of both standards, will be initially affected by Player A's Standard of Might, and after that standard expires, will then be affected by Player B's Dragonknight Standard (which will still have about 5s remaining since it was cast 5s later).
Actual results:
Player C is initially affected by Player A's Standard of Might, but is not affected by Player B's Dragonknight Standard.
Mitigating factors:
This failure to "hand off" from one player's standard to the next
only affects a hand-off from the Might morph to the base morph. If Player B had been the first to cast instead of the second to cast, this works fine. If both Players A and B have the base morph, or if they both have the Might morph, this works fine as well. Since class ultimates are unlocked early and are relatively cheap to level to morph, in practice, I expect that very few players will have the base morph, which is why this is a bit of an edge case.
Also, after Player A's standard expires, Player C walks out of and back into Player B's standard, they'll regain the buff as expected.
