Spiritbinder bugged O_o

Attatchment says all.

Yes I discovered this too a couple days ago. I guess I should send in an official bug report :P It acts like an offhand instead of a staff, which gives you the nrg and the mods whether you meet the reqs or not.

Um, no. Offhands don't give you the energy if you don't meet the requirement, as the requirement is next to the energy mod for offhands.

The problem with the Spiritbinder is that it's not giving the unconditional +10 energy that it's supposed to have, in addition to the other +5 energy.

Yea I was gonna use it as my Trapper Staff and sold my old trapper staff (well gave away) .... but it has less energy then it should >.<

Support's answer to this was "you need points in communing to get the energy."

Anyone else who wants to try... good luck

Yeah I sent in a report before this thread.

whaa.. that does'nt make sense- maybe they'll change it on factions release

where do u find this?

find what?

I believe he's referring to the item itself.

sickkk, it's a pre-order item for Factions. So you have to get a pre-order key to obtain it. Try looking at http://guildwars.com

This bug has already been discussed. As well as the bug where this staff shoots arrows while attacking (just the animation). Try looking in the Factions forum :P

You misunderstood him.

That was refering to staves, not foci.

sorry, mistype. I actually meant the other way around. I meant staves give you the nrg and mods no matter what, and this is acting like offhands, which dont'. Sorry.

Did you write a Reply to them saying: "This is a staff you morons. No you don't." ?

Actually it's not acting as an offhand as in even without meeting the requirement, an offhand gives you the base energy of +3 I think. This only gives you +5 from the insightful mod.

So then it's acting like a piece of crap

It also shoots arrows o_0
Very weird....

The last time Gaile Gray was in ID1 La, i tried spammign it askign why it was bugged or if they knew about it. after about an hour i gave up......

But i swear if i had one more person tellign me it was because i didnt meet the requirement i was gonna scream..... A funny thing was told to me for that, is that rangers only use staffs for trapping to get the insightful bonus, but they dont meet the req to get the +10 energy from the main weapon

for a staff with insightfull head , like illyana's, you should 15 energy no matter what...with the special trapper staff, you'll get 13 energy ( conditional , you need 80% hp )

so this item IS bugged

Actually, you just put an insightful head onto the "trapper" staff... and then you got 18 >.>

GW support staff are notoriously bad. My inquiry about why the Factions Pre-Order key (and associaated pre-order items) wasn't showing up in the "manage keys" area after entering it got me a reply from the FAQ, explaining that keys are available through retailers, or as a guest from someone with an existing account. Another time I was told that the disappearance of pets after cut scenes, such as in Dragon's Lair, was intended, and that the game was working normally. Just re-submit, eventually they pass it to an employee who has played the game before.
