I've confirmed with a stopwatch, and by racing my reload against a YouTube video. This worked before the latest patch, but it no longer does.
Frustrating that this happened just when Iron Banner started, I gotta say. Pairing sunbreakers with invective was my crucible build, and I don't have any worthy substitute!
For the needlessly skeptical, I've recorded a video of the race with a youtuber's reload. You'll have to forgive my crappy recording method, it's all I have on hand. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZAb3eHS9Ng&feature=youtu.be
We don't start reloading at exactly the same moment, but it's clear to see that the gap widens in the youtuber's favor as time goes on. I am wearing the gloves, and I do have the perk unlocked. So does the youtuber.

Works for me

Tested Invective + Young Ahamkara's Spine. 99% certain that there was no effect on reload speed.

None of the perks that deal with weapons or ammo are working. My heavy weapon ammo perks aren't working, for example. Does bungie have any update for this? It happened after the last patch. Or is this just another "accidental" nerf that wasn't supposed to be implemented yet, like the thorn nerf?

Thank you for reporting this issue. I will pass the information on to the team to investigate.
-
Timing it with a stopwatch is hardly "confirmation" neither is "racing against youtube" so please spare us from this ridiculous comment and remove it and/or edit it. Merci

I think this is a common issue with all of the special abilities of armour. The gloves of the Hezen lords have the same ability and dont work either.
-
My crest of alpha lupi's special weapon ammo perk is also not working. Could this be a general bug to all upgrades not related to defense or light on exotics?

This is good to hear and bring up! I love using my Sunbreakers. If they lose part of their worthiness, that hardly makes them exotic, right? I wonder if the raid gauntlets were affected like this, as well.
