Perk is broken on live. But PTR changes to fortify do fix that issue. 50% on light armor is like 10% dmg mitigaion. So instead taking 7k GS hit you will take 6.3k.
According to the perk description you receive a flat 50% dmg red, not fortify. So the update doesn’t affect this
Maybe test on PTR to make sure of this sometimes the tooltips are wrong, if it is straight damage reduction, then I agree with your suggestion 100%. Lights shouldnt mitigate damage like tanks. Simple.

You are right. I checked again and the perk is changed on PTR to give fortify instead. My bad

AGS. Before you nerf anything. Internally test that ^
And do you really want to go there? You’re really reaching. I know you need it for latching onto nerfing blunderbuss.
Great then 
they’re latching onto anything and everything to nerf when their’s got nerfed.
It’s just a direct lie. It’s 4-5k damage on war in best case heh. Maybe 5-6 against light without resist.
this is the bruiser hurt forum where they latch onto anything and console each other. by the way. I slay you m’fers. and will continue to do so no matter what happens in any meta. stay lame.

After 33 threads on the forum and 1245 post about BB, they finally start doing something?
comparing to all others weapons, BB still seems untouched, so IMO stsill a joke from ags side…

[George90] Checked on PTR and it is Fortify that they get. Hence, no big deal, scroll up.
I just went to PTR and here it is, this represents 10% dam,age absorbtion in light and 12/13% in medium. Debate is closed isnt it now? The perk is fine. I love it when people rant about something they are unaware is fixed. I guess that’s why forums can be helpful.

i mean, at least they making tooltips more consistent with the patch, as probably dmg reduction was already the wrong term as it was fortify all the time.
Agreed, clearly positive! And also with the nerf of fortify the Last stand passive is fine now, not overpowered.

No they aren’t. The fortifications changes alone are nerfs to the Bb and they also said they will be making further adjusts before ptr goes live. It’s going to get nerfed.
thanks for this fresh info (13h). previously, the only noticeable incoming change in BB was a straight dmg boost (cartridge’ elemental bonus). and it’s still relevant.
I do not understand why weapon wit such burst combo has got perk “Last Chance” in the first place… but I think it’s amazon’s hobby to create unbalanced and broken weapons which are making people leaving their game
how many people left becuase of bb, musket and greatsword? nobody can count it, but we all know at least few guys who left becuase of it
@Developer Good job!

Oh, you are that kind of build user 
Imagine calling someone a troll then. 
“how many people left becuase of bb, musket and greatsword? nobody can count it, but we all know at least few guys who left becuase of it ”
Just gonna leave it here. Go figure. If you were not sitting in your chair while typing that nonsense, you would be a walking counter argument to yourself. GL HF.
Can understand musket and greatsword.
BB though? It takes a perfect situation to make it hit effectively.
Nerf stun chains, and it’ll be fairly irrelevant. Primarily just another weapon that hurts light users, about like anything else.
