Is Menias Res broke or am i doing it wrong?

[󠀡󠀡]

when attached to verso to take advantage of the berserker skill i keep getting the following results:


Menias Res on Verso battle start 3 shields covering hp bar hp 500/1000 dmg: 300/300/300

Menias Res on Verso battle start deplete 3 shields hp bar 500/1000 dmg: 7000/7000/7000

Menias Res off Verso but used to get his Hp low in battle before, battle start hp 500/1000 dmg: 7000/7000/7000

Am I wrong for assuming it should work in case no:1 to give me the buff while maintaining the shields?

Are you sure that in scenario 1 your hp sits at 500/1000?
b/c In Medias Res does not half your hp, it halfes your max-hp (at least until you get some sort of heal, then your max snaps back to your usual) .. so you should sit at 500/500, which means no buff for Berserk Slash.

the first battle after putting it on it will show 500/500 but afterwards every battle it registers as 500/1000 until i take the picto off.
