    Has anyone tested why it fades so quickly? I read on an old thread that it's counting procs (not supposed to tho) but Im not sure I buy that. Its fading sometimes in less than 2.5 seconds (too quick to get a fuse off sometimes) in a group. I cant believe there are 24 spells and procs of anything in 2.5 seconds in a 6 man group. I suspect that something is overwriting/blocking it instead.

    I know. By that spell data it should not be fading as quickly as it is. Something is wrong.

    The line of spells was using Limited Use Type 3 (consume charge when hit by any detrimental spell) rather than 7 (consume charge when the focus effect is triggered).

    It should be fixed for the next full patch.

    That is awesome, thank you.
    Do you think that you could add a fade message while you are at it? :)
