Sorcery Ward bugged

I think since one of the hotfixes for 0.4.0c it got bugged, since it was working fine a couple days ago.

It used to update and enter the recharge time whenever your armour/evasion got updated i.e. removing gear, or nodes on the passive tree like the ones that give you increased evasion if you hit and enemy recently etc.
Now it doesn't update until it goes into recharge timer when you take damage, or unless you swap weapon sets and that somehow changes your defences.

Also, Mastery support gems don't seem to work. I have Fire Mastery equipped and it says Level 21 in Skills menu, but when you mosue over the actual skill the tooltip doesn't say +1 level grom support
