Wintertide Bulwark & Guardian Plate

[daver]

It seems like equiping both these items is a bit bugged.  Both items are soulbounds from BoW:  Wintertide Bulwark/large shield/needs 100 afflictions to advance; & Guardian Plate/heavy plate armor/needs 100 afflictions to advance.

 

It seems odd that 2 soulbounds would have the same requirements.  But even if that were so, equiping both the shield and the plate while gaining afflictions, only progresses the plate.  The shield doesn't advance.  I don't see how that can be right.  If I'm equiping both items, gain an affliction, then it should refect as a gain in both the shield & the plate.  But it doesn't.  Is this as intended?

Hey Daver!

 

This is indeed a bug and has recently been fixed for the 2.1.0 patch which should be coming out very soon.  The fix is currently in the Patch Beta branch if you want to try it out.

 

Thanks for notifying us about this!

Thanks!  I'll take a look at the beta 2.1.0 patch on Steam, or maybe wait until official release since it's so close.  As a side note, I did get the shield to advance, but only if its' equipped with a different armor.
