    No, it works. We have tested it. We actually started looking at the morale and ilevelsyncing mechanisms when someone caught that Hellwolf Accessories were giving more Det that expected.

    Hellwolf Earrings of Fending are +9 Det +17 Crit +10 Morale when worn in i80 Frontlines. If Morale had no effect this should sync down to +9 Det +14 Crit, but because of Morale it ends up syncing to +10 Det +14 Crit. That is one of Det it should not have but does. Morale first gives a bonus equal to the difference in the stat's cap between its true ilevel and its morale boosted ilevel.

    The Lionsmane Cuirass is even more noticeable. It is +27 Det +26 Cit +10 Morale it syncs to +21 Det +29 Crit.

    Morale gear in general is almost always better because 90% of it has no accuracy or parry.
    It seems really weird. Is it really supposed to work like that ? Do you have an interesting thread talking about that mechanic/the theorycrafting of Frontlines BiS ?

    Thanks.

    I am pleasantly surprised about the changes.

    Also, the i80 cap is a good thing, it makes pvp balanced instead of like the old wolves den where you couldn't even dent another player that had higher moral. PvP should be about co-ordination, skill, and strategy, not who's most geared. Plus the i80 cap lets us mix and match more pieces to tune our builds.
