    Can we get more buff slots ? 5 more at minimum, 10 would be nice.

    Being on a raid and getting spammed with 'your spell did not take hold' because you're max buffed is a pita.

    They have said many times that they can't add any more debuff slots because of the impact it would have on performance.

    But how many people keep the "permanent" buff icons up when they don't need to?

    Not a lot of choice not to when they have reintroduced mobs which debuff us.

    This has reminded me I need to block the latest lines of ranger buffs and a few others, also druids have a new group wolf illusion which for some reason wasn't blocked need to remember to get that blocked as well, damn annoying when burns get blocked due to too many buffs and dots!
  5. Svann2 The Magnificent

    Or maybe a tool for raid leader to choose priority order for debuffs so he can choose which stick and which get bounced.

    sk's self buffs need a consolidation blend a few of them together, instead of you know the 7 buffs the aa casts.

    LOL half the posts talking about debuff slots (on mobs), the other half talking about buff slots (on players)!
  8. Angahran Augur

    Nobody mentioned debuff slots.

    More blocked buff slots would be nice too. I swear half of mine are just to block stupid wolf illusions :p

    Maybe I wasn't clear, they don't want to give us more debuff slots because of performance issues and it is likely that buff slots have that same issue as well.

    Reminds me of a funny quote from the old Druid's Grove website. And actually, somebody on here has the quote in their sig, can't remember who.

    But the original quote was from Fyrrlustorm (spelling?), and went something like this:

    "Druids are better at turning people into wolves, who don't want to be wolves, than any other class!"

    And nobody in this thread is asking for more debuff slots!
  13. Tatanka Joe Schmo

    Kinda.

    Nobody is asking for more, but several explained why there can't be more (like Waring just did), even though none were asked for. That's what makes this thread a golden example of people talking past each other and failing to stay on topic (the request for more BUFF slots).

    The two are related as both cause more system resources to be used when they are increased. I mentioned debuff slots because of that.

    Actually, you are. Another buff slot for players = another debuff slot on NPCs.
