I have read conflicting stories on whether or not the eldritch body debuff impacted the animist arb bombers. Has anyone done any testing to see whether or not the debuff does in fact improve the effectiveness of the bombers? I believe the conern here is they don't work because the arb bombers are pets and not regular nukes. Any input on this subject would be greatly appreciated.

It *should* be working in RvR. The body debuff however is not implemented in PvE, regardless of Realm. [ignoring the fact that it would make shrooms ungodly, it was disabled long before the animist due to the ability to CC a mob indefinately because the debuff didn't originally break mezz, and you could just debuff + mezz the mob over and over as there was no CC immunity code]
If it is not working in RvR, let me know and I'll ask about it.
EDIT: The debuff attached to the Creeping Baseline's Wispfire, which is also a Body Debuff currently still is functional in RvR (again, no PVE effect).

The debuff attached to the Creeping Baseline's Wispfire, which is also a Body Debuff currently still is functional in RvR (again, no PVE effect).
But i still wonder how this stack with the 10% piercing, maybe if one had no piercing he would really see a difference using it.
anyway i've never seen or heard of any animist using it in RvR, it's obviously useless on a bomber, and 10% is a joke

<<< But i still wonder how this stack with the 10% piercing,>>>
resist debuffs start at the casteds one and work on those, and piercing only works on resists from items, so yes, they do stack. It's why 30% debuff trispec cabalists with 10% pierce do the same damage as spirit cabs with the 50 debuff.

There still isn't necessarily an immunity code for mobs. It's just a halved duration.
