[2.0 Beta] Outworn Buckler providing bonus to other companions also

[chalsengi]

Ive just noticed that the Outworn Buckler (Paladin only shield) is providing its +5 Defenses bonus to other companions in the party as well, within a certain range.

 

The icon of the Shield appears next to their portraits, and it also appears in the Active Effects list.

Hello, chalsengi.  This is an intended.  The Herald enchantment is designed to give the buff to any ally within range of the Paladin.  Thanks for your support!

Ah, I thought maybe that was the case, but it wasnt clear in the description (to the best of my recollection).

Hello again.  In the description it says, "As it accumulated damage from war and weather, the buckler became an extension of the paladin's own irrepressibility and protectiveness, as well as a symbol that inspired those in her charge."  That's the only place it says anything about it.  Honestly I was confused about this shield at one point also.  Thanks again.
