I'm a little confused BSN - can you help a fellow Mage out?
 
I would like to know if Fortifying Blast (the upgraded version of Mind Blast) results in:
 
1)  Reducing your Barrier cool down by 10%
 
or
 
2)  Put a 10% Barrier on your character
 
I definitely don't get a 10% Barrier on my Inquisitor after hitting enemies (unless it's an invisible magic Barrier? lol) with the upgraded blast.. curious to know if I'm bugged or is it just supposed to reduce the cooldown on Barrier by 10% (which I think it does... but it could be a placebo effect)
 
 
Any feedback appreciated BSN :)

So I just read on Reddit that this is affecting most Mages... can ANY mage verify that Fortifying Blast works correctly for them: Biobros, this needs patching ASAP guys!!!

Well, if barrier lasts ten seconds, the upgrade makes it 11 seconds; not useful unless there's another perk to it, like reduced cooldown.

Oh snap... is that how it's supposed to work?

 

So the Barrier you cast after using Fortifying Blast is buffed by 10% (I thought it was supposed to put a 1 second barrier up on you per person hit)?

Time to test this, thanks for the insight - thank you Andraste!

I have it working properly now, it's 100% a bug with the ability that can happen, as now after levelling up I've chosen it again and tested it thouroughly, and now it's working right (with barrier on, 10% is added per enemy hit with Mind Blast) - so yeah, check your abilities peeps - they could be bugged, best to test before getting too far after the previous save game I'd say :P

So how did you fix it? Because I am having this bug with my keeper in multiplayer.

I spoke too soon... it started doing it again :(

 

I was getting a weird blue mist around my character too after combat - wtf man...

 

Packed a sad, did a clean re-install and deleted all characters, restarted just now with fresh 14.2 beta optimised drivers too... Andraste hold me, let my abilities not be bugged this time!!
