Ember of Mercy + Ember of Empyrean = weird interaction?
So I found a weird interaction between Ember of Mercy and Ember of Empyrean. I don't think it's was intended to do the following.
So picking up a Firesprite gives you 2sec of restoration with Ember of Mercy.
A healing grenade gives 4sec of restoration.
Ember of Empyrean let's you extend both timers (2sec and 4sec) to a max of 12sec.
Now the issue I encountered - let's say we have two instances, one where I used a healing grenade and then got the 4sec timer to the max of 12sec and another instance where I got the 2sec timer from a firesprite to the max of 12sec.
If I now pick up a firesprite it resets the restoration timer to the initial value.
healing grenade: max 12sec -> gets reset to 4sec.
firesprite restorationL max12sec -> gets reset to 2sec.
Like I said, I don't think that's intentional. I hope this gets fixed/changed.
Its a bug.
Bungie told us it requires some engineering work to fix the issue and that it was being prioritised for a future update - that was 3 months ago over on a reddit thread [url=https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/153m0vk/comment/jsnss04/?context=1000]here[/url] and the bug itself was acknowledged 7 months ago in the March 30th TWAB [url=https://www.bungie.net/7/en/News/article/destiny-2-twab-3-30-23]here[/url]
