War Rune: Relentless Will Bugged

[aislynn00]

<p>I have been checking buff stacking, and in the process, I discovered that the war rune "Relentless Will", which is supposed to increase the proc chance of spells and items by 7% as well as grant 4% Damage Reduction, only partially functions.</p><p>Specifically, while the proc chance buff works fine, the Damage Reduction isn't applied, no matter whether the character has any Damage Reduction to begin with.  </p><p>Regarding my test approach, I simply added the DynamicData value "Damage_Reduction_Percentage_Physical" to the user interface and observed how various buffs affected it.  The warrior defensive stance and mythical proc as well as several other buffs all stacked properly and increased the stat.  However, as mentioned above, the Relentless Will proc didn't change the stat, even when the character was otherwise entirely unbuffed.</p>

<p>I can attest that no proc whatsoever from skyshrine will be affected by this or any other buff(luck of the dirge, blessings(temp ability)).  But aside from those items if you have both abilities and item/war rune procs from dov 1 or elsewhere they should be affected by it.</p>

<p>The damage reduction of Relentless Will uses a different style of damage reduction - it doesn't use one that shows in DynamicData. It uses a special type of damage reduction that does stack with the one that shows in DynamicData, but not with any of its own type.</p><p>I just went on live and verified that this does reduce incoming damage properly.</p>
