Description: in some cases Mage Armor magic debuff 50 % duration reduction was not affecting certain magic debuffs on OG Wrath.
One notable example is Improved Fear in Affliction Warlock tree.
Currently the applied debuff is cut in half as it theoretically should be, but in reality that's not how it worked.
Like this:
Generally speaking, a rule of thumb here is that if a magic debuff is refreshed rather than 'applied', it should be back to it's full (uncut) duration, even if it was halved at the parent application. - this part seems to be working, only outlier is Nightmare here.
Effects like this include: corruption refresh via shadowbolt, and similar magic refreshes.
