IMIW armor up while armor shattered

So Medusa's armor shattered does not stop IMIW from fetting armor ups, but prevents her from any additional armor breaks on him while its active.
Medusa's armor shattered ability specifically states that it prevents opponents from armor buffs while it's active. There is nothing I can fine in IMIW abilities that state armor shattered doesn't work on him, or that AAR is reduced in any way regarding his armor up buffs.
Anybody have any more info on this?
Is it working as intended or a bug?
Is there another forum post about this? (Search option is a joke on here)

Yep, @Dhorne61 is correct; his Molecular Armors are Passive Effects, but Medusa's Armor Shattered prevents active Armor Buffs. Active Buffs, like Medusa's Fury Buffs, can be distinguished by the ring around their icon, but Passive Effects, like Molecular Armor, do not have those.
IW IM armors are passive, therefore they still trigger even if armor shattered is activated.
In theory, armor breaks shouldn't remove armor passives, but they do in this case since it is an ability from iron man
Medusa’s ability does not say she is limited in preventing only active buffs, it simply says “opponent cannot activate their armour buffs”. It’s actually quite clear in the description but the picking and choosing with the new hotness (passive buffs) is sleazy. This ongoing scam where previous abilities become useless because they are only effective on active buffs and all new champs are utilizing passive needs to stop.
That doesn't exist, and will only make you more confuse about how these abilities are supposed to work
Probably because he gets a lot more ability accuracy, which denies her ability to avoid armor buffs from triggering
If there is an ability sold for a champ, like Medusa, passive or non passive they shouldn’t be able to get around her ability.
Otherwise it’s false advertisement
No, it isn't. They didn't changed anything, and their abiliies were stated fron the beginning.
They can't simply change every passive thing to a buff or a debuff. That would change 80%+ of the characters and make other abilities useless.
The passive things are fine as they are. Players just need to know how to distinguish these from buffs or debuffs, which isn't that hard at all
The amount of inconsistency is pretty funny if you look at everything.
I know it isn’t hard, but medusa shouldn’t be sold an ability that can just be screwed over by something that’s “passive”
Description forces deception in this case @Kabam Zibiit
Please bring this to the team
I remember a lot of it being in the Forum and a lot of conversation occurring very similar to the one here. Many members saw that as an issue that needed to be fixed and lo and behold here we are in the same situation with now a second champ that's unexplainably impervious to her armor break abilities.
I got nothing. Lol
LOL seriously? Can we get a moderator to comment on this? Or if the official Kabam character descriptions we've used for years are suddenly not trustworthy, at least a heads up on that? You LITERALLY SAY in the official description she is a good counter and it affects molecular armor. And please, let's let a mod respond and not someone on here who thinks they are one.
She does
It says she can break and shatter armor not allowing him to keep his armors up for a long time. Not that it stops his armor ups from happening. So in fact she is doing as they said she would consistantly break his armor
This is probably the single most accurate post that I have seen on the forums...period.
