Ascension doesn't affect defenders health in bgs?

I recently r5 and ascended my thing. And he stands tall with around 67k health( with my current masteries, with my bg mastery he should have 8% more as i maxed out better health so around 72k health). With the bg health increase of +300% health ie x4 and my additional mastery it should be around 289k. With help of an ally mate I tested just to see that my thing has 237k health, which with a bit of math you can see that 289 is 22% more than 237 which is exactly the health increase that ascension gives.. Why would ascension not have an impact on health. Im sure a lot have people have made some bg focused ascensions and might not have knowing that it makes no difference.

    I noticed this as well with fighting ascended Photon as I have one too. The math was off. It's like she's only rank 5 with the HP stated.

    They already said it's just a visual bug the hp is updated

    Hasn't ascension been out for months? Surely they would have fixed it.

    Or they're just lying to us again...

    The team is looking into this right now.

    >>> Was this also in Battlegrounds or a different game mode?
    Battlegrounds. She has 65k HP as ascended so her total HP should be around 260k but it only says about 200k ish.

    Do I need to be worried?

    I can only assume( and you know what they say about assuming) that it's because ascension is classed as a 22% boost rather than a rank up that any node modifiers are only taking base health of a r5 into account, which if so, is silly.

    umm no… where does it say it’s a boost? even so, why wouldn’t it be valid in bgs? it’s not a temp boost.

    the ascension can not be classified as boost only. Kabam said it was a permanent stats being added to the champ.

    No, its a 22% increase to attack and HP. It only affects base stats. Its not a "boost".

    What I think @Vegeta9001 is saying is that the coding may make it appear like a boost to the BG engine—not that it actually is just a boost.

    Almost 10 years of code written and overwritten by Heaven knows how many different devs and things like that can happen.

    Yes...

    At times I think of the multitude of Buffs, Debuffs, abbility, nodes, and we can see on forums that sometimes this or that may be broke, ocurring flaws in game.

    And if not flaws, only the specialists can determine what happened.

    So, the game code must be updated with caution...or...rewritten.

    Hey guys, someone caught this months ago and when they rewatched their fight, they found out that it was just a visual bug in that screen. Your defender will still have all of their health they should with ascension.
