Vile Shroud (Reaper form) is bugged or "more information" text is wrong

The “more information” text states that the amount of protection granted is equal to the amount of amour granted (i.e. 1 per intelligence per point allocated to Soul Shroud).
However it only grants 1 per intelligence regardless of the points allocated to Soul Shroud

I haven’t been able to reproduce the issue. Were you still in Reaper Form when you allocated additional points? If so you’ll need to exit and re-enter Reaper Form for the points allocated to take effect.

Yes I re-entered multiple times to experiment a bit. I only ever get 1% res per intelligence.
Im attaching some screenshots for confimation:

Vile Shoud: 1 per intelligence per allocated point

3 points allocated

Baseline 40% poison res, 16 intelligence
Expected result: 40 base + (1* 16(int)*3(sould shroud)) = 88 % poison res

Reality in reaper form: 56 % poison res
1 per int
instead of: 1 per int per point

PS. Im very impressed by the response time on this forum

That’ll be a typo on the tooltip. The bottom two lines (that state the +1% per Int) are the ones that matter. I very much doubt that it’s intended to give 1% per Int per point in Soul Shroud since that would give up to 4% per Int & you can get a good 50 odd int as an Acolyte (over 80 as a Necro), so that would be 200% necrotic & poison resists.

I suspect that alt-text on the tooltip wasn’t properly updated since they changed from protections to resists back in 0.7.something.

ty for clarifying as stated in the title I kinda suspected this was the case and can easily see the balancing implications, but I was just disappointed when I specced the node
