PLATFORM: Xbox Series X
ISSUE: The Ember of Mercy solar subclass fragment grants Restoration x1 for 2 seconds after collecting a Firesprite. However, if a player already has the Restoration buff applied from any source picking up a Firesprite with Ember of Mercy will cause the buff timer to be reset to its original value. For example, if a player uses a Healing grenade to gain 4 seconds of Restoration x1 then gets kills with a solar weapon or ability with Ember of Empyrean equipped to extend the timer to 12 seconds, collecting a Firesprite will reset the timer to 4 seconds. This creates a scenario where collecting a Firesprite is detrimental to the player, and limits the usefulness of the Ember of Mercy Fragment as a source of the Restoration buff.
REPRO STEPS:
1. Equip any solar subclass with Healing Grenade and the fragments Ember of Mercy, Searing, and Empyrean. Also equip a weapon or ability that can apply Scorch.
2. Load into any area with a continuous supply of easily defeated PvE enemies.
3. Throw the Healing Grenade at yourself to gain 4 seconds of Restoration.
4. Kill several enemies with solar weapons/abilities to extend the Restoration timer to 12 seconds.
5. Kill any enemy with Scorch applied to them to generate a Firesprite.
6. Collect the Firesprite.
ACTUAL RESULT: Restoration timer is set to 4 seconds.
EXPECTED RESULT: Restoration timer is extended by several seconds. Alternatively if the timer is already set to the maximum of 12 seconds, the timer remains at 12 seconds.

Bump. Tested this on all 3 characters and it's the same bug. Pretty much destroys self healing builds, hope this gets fixed soon.
