Shining broken

    Logged in today, and was playing around doing LDoNs.

    A guildy was boxing a cleric and mentioned that he thought shining wasn't firing. He was under the impression it wasn't firing because of the mob's level. As certain mobs are unstunnable so it wasn't firing because of that.

    Decided to run some testing. Ran around and grabbed a bunch of mobs in the LDoN I was in. Only defensive proc running was Shining Fortress. The buff starts off with 72 counters. Let the mobs just stand there and beat on me. 0 counters were lost. Made sure I had a parser going, and it wasn't hitting the mobs at all.

    For completeness sake I tested all the versions of Shining. (listing for completeness)
    Fortress-Broken
    Bulwark-Broken
    Bastion-Broken
    Armor-Broken
    Rampart-Broken

    Cleric's Ward line is unaffected, as is our Vow Lines. (only tested the highest version of those lines)

    Also brought up parses from raids Monday. It was firing on raids then. So has to be something from the patch.

    Shining Bulwark Rk. II is firing fine on test server. Cant confirm on live.

    It is because of changes from the swarm killing nerf in 2014. link

    Yeah, prenerf shining was a bit too good in some instances.
