Vanguard Keystone ability not granting Temporary wounds
Unyielding Beacon is not granting temporary wounds.

Just creating a thread to say this as I can't find it mentioned anywhere else and I love the Vanguard and would like to continue into Act 2 without feeling like i am missing out on a major mechanic of my archetype

Unyielding beacon never granted any temporary wounds.

its says, temporary wounds you have/get now stack up, and when they already there until the next turn of your vanguard they only reduced to the latest largest amount applied.

What the ability does (mouseover) is:
- grants 1 resolve per attack on the character, up to 15; I do not know what counts as 'an attack', but I suspect it is the use of an attack action (bladedance = 1), and maybe only with melee weapons
- if you gain temporary wounds, they stack now
- at the start of your next round, you lose all temporary wounds except for the strongest effect; if they are less than your stacks of beacon, you gain as many as that

I don't play vanguards, so I have not checked what it actually does. But I can see several points which may work differently than expected. Attacks might mean melee attacks only, but maybe they include ranged ones. Does it mean an actual attack with a sword/gun, or would count free abilities like deathwhisper or unfinished business, too? It says one stack per attack - attempt or actual hit? I'd say attempt, but I am not certain.
There were changes in patch 1.2, so maybe it does not work as it did before then.
