Advice on incorrect buff stats

[Maage 1]

When I use my rank 2 Ice Armor it's supposed to give me 494 armor and 11 resistance. but when i cast rank 2 ice armor it actually gives me 380 armor and 9 resistance...

I've deleted my WDB, sent a ticket in game, I can't for the life of me figure it out. And it's not just Ice Armor rank 2. Even rank 1 gives me improper stats and also ALL of my Frost Armors.

 

Any suggestions?

Are you looking at the buffs or your actual stats? I'm assuming you have the talent to increase them. Actual buff tooltips were never adjusted correctly for the improvements from talents in vanilla iirc.

I'm looking at the buffs. When I cast rank 2 Ice Armor, the little buff symbol appears in the top right corner of my screen. The icon in my list of skills says it should give me 494 ice armor and 11 resistance. When I hover over the buff it says that i'm being give only 380 ice armor and 9 resistance.

 

So you're saying that I should be given the correct stat buff while the ice armor is on me, even if it doesn't say so? I know the devs. are busy with everything so I can see how something small like that wouldn't be an immediate problem. As long as the buff given is what it's supposed to be.

Check your stats - this isn't a bug, it's blizzlike. If your stats show that they don't give the improved stats then yeah, it's a bug.

To be more specific, the API isn't capable of factoring in talents to the tooltip on buffs (there's no way for it to track who cast it). It is, however, capable of factoring in talents into the spell on your bars or spellbook. It's not a bug, and there isn't anything devs can do to change it without modifying the client.
