Legendary Shield Mastery- bad tool tip or changed?

[psteen1]

They were going to add doublestrike to legendary shield mastery. According to the tooltip it does not have it. I am wondering if this is a tool tip that has not been updated or a change of heart by the devs.

If the second, shame on you!

What does the effect log say when you unequip/equip a shield. Thought I remembr seeing somewhere it was just a tooltip issue.

bumping in hopes for an answer. But I'll plan on taking the destiny tonight and trying it out if no one can confirm.

I took this and my buff bar says I have doublestrike. I haven't confirmed in the combat log though...

I'm also trying to figure out doublestrike stacking. It would appear that I have 25% doublestrike?

1 feat: 3%
2 tiers legendary mastery: 6%
alchemical shield bonus: 6%
zeal: 10%
= 25%

That's how I see it, too. If you get improved shield mastery for a feat you will gain another 6% I think, and the epic spare hand (from challenges) can get you another 3%. I'm pretty sure all of these effects will stack with each other. With one more tier of legendary mastery add to what you have above, us paladins should be able to hit 37%, which would be pretty close to the equivalent of improved two weapon fighting. Any other bonuses that we can rope into this?

Here. 1 feat and 2 ranks of legendary...

(Combat): You are affected by your tower shield.
(Combat): You are using a tower shield, and gain 10 physical resistance.
(Combat): You are affected by your shield mastery double strike.
(Combat): Your double strike is increased by 3% while using a shield.
(Combat): You are affected by your legendary shield master.
(Combat): You gain +10 Physical Resistance and 6% double strike

I hoping they are still moving the dragonmark junk over to enhancements in august and then I can rank this up.
