    Title: Elysian Illumination duration: Searing Ray 15% debuff w/spec. expiring before timer when charged
    Reproduction Rate: Seemingly 100%
    Blocker? No
    Details: Saw a player on Universal Chat report this earlier:
    [11/23/2021 8:24:15 PM] Ishmar (To Universe): hmmm.... seems if you charge Elysian Illumination.... the bonuses to searing ray only last about halfway through

    .. so I went on QA and tested it and can verify it appears to be bugged:
    If you charge (or stack) Elysian Illumination to extend the duration, the 15% chance debuff won't trigger once the non-extended duration timer expires. Ex:
    Elysian Illumination without charging: 8 minutes (debuff can trigger full 8 minutes)
    Elysian Illumination charged/stacked: 18 minutes (debuff will stop triggering after ~8 minutes)

    Steps to Reproduce: Spec sun magic, set skill to 80 or so, same for searing ray. Cast 1 charge of Elysian Illumination, and note the timer duration. Cast searing ray against a practice target and notice the occasional 'blind' debuff triggering at 15% of the time until the timer expires. Charge (or stack) Elysian Illumination, note the extended timer duration. Cast searing ray against a practice target and notice that the occasional 15% chance 'blind' debuff stops working around the timer expiration of the un-charged (non-stacked) duration and does not extend into the newer extended duration from charging/stacking.
