Is there a thread on the Lizard/Node 8 AW bug?

For anyone who doesn't know: His Buff Immunity does not grant charges to the attacker as it should based on the nodes description.. which means not only do you not gain the *extra* charges from the Immunity, it clearly even prevents gaining charges from expiry as well

Are there plans to fix this? And if so, when? Would like to know for AW planning purposes moving forward, thanks!

Yeah that sounds annoying, but that is how I expect that to work now that I’ve thought about it. Pretty consistently, if you gain Immunity to an effect while you have said effect(s) active, you remove them but this does not technically count as triggering that Immunity for whatever reason. The effect has to fail to apply while the Immunity is already active. As an example, Spot’s self-inflicted Buff Immunity Debuff lets him inflict a Rupture when the Immunity triggers, but he doesn’t get credit for this for any Buffs cleared when it activates (e.g. you Dex to gain the Precision Buff then immediately activate Sp1 while it’s still active). It’s a weird edge case, and for the record I’m with you that that should count as an Immunity trigger, but I’m pretty sure it’s been like that for a while.

Don’t know that you need this, but you gain charges when Buffs are prevented by AAR on node 8, and this doesn’t just mean Neutralize but any AAR. That’s probably gonna be the best way to handle Lizard there if this “bug” doesn’t ever change, just use some Skill that has good Defensive AAR to prevent the Buff triggers from the node when he gains a bar of power.
