Does the Raging Saint set dmg bonus work in pvp?

Raging Saint does not. Elite Blarney does.

This sounds very broken. Anyone who did not achieve a top 50 spot will be disadvantaged in pvp at endgame or will have to spend a very high amount of gold to purchase one of these Elite Blarney amulets. I actually achieved a top 50 spot and own one of these and still think it's unfair to other players.

In total, it's now possible to get 25% dmg bonus in pvp at endgame from Blarney and Aventurine. At twink, its possible to get 5% from Aventurine Shield alone. Many pvp players have been calling for a dmg nerf to certain classes such as mages in lower level pvp and now this added dmg bonus will just increase the dmg even higher.

Lastly, I'd like to mention Honor Arena. The sole purpose of creating this arena was to provide players with an alternative pvp option that is focused more on balance and fairness. However, you can now equip the Aventurine Shield in the Honor Arena to buff your dmg by 5%. Not sure if this was intended or not, but it makes it less balanced and fair, that's for sure.

If it were up to me, I'd only allow these dmg% bonuses to work in PVE.

Reasonable feedback. I'll look into it after I lock down issues with the Raging Saint set's PvE effects.

Thanks. I appreciate the response

Does the gold bought version of raging saint set give all the bonuses? (25% GL, 20% luck, 2x dmg and 2x exp)? Just curious. Also i strongly disagree with the amulet and shield stats working in pvp. Extremely unbalanced for the people that may not have had the time to dedicate their life into 1 event. Just providing my feedback.
