I have developed a condition known as Pot Amnesia, i am physically incapable of remembering when i have used a power pot. This is even if i have used one 5s earlier and results in pressing the macro and wondering why im not getting power. Be aware it can strike at any time and there is no known cure :(

There is one recomended course of action to diagnose this condition, record yourself playing to see if you do it. Then never ever show anyone the footage, especially if there is vent chat with you sayingthat you think your macro is bugged... because you'll look like a right prat doing so, wouldn't you? :mad:

Anyone else do wierd things like this?

Also ignore the bit where I accidently target the britle guard rather than the caster for shear interupt and get blown to shit...

I reckon watching the footage i was a bit slack compared to monday, was probably the 80's music john was torturing me with :p

Less harassing the 80's music! I know you loved it! Admit it! :twak:

And pot amnesia can happen to anyone mate, just like the EoY amnesia i tend to get on cleric, running over to the dead bodies spamming it, only to see the msg, can't use another item for 1 minute and 10 seconds. :( Or taunt amnesia for pala, trying to use it on a 3 sec timer. Give it back on the 10 sec rather than 20 though, that was ace.

i had exactly the same thing today when i was fighting a nightshade on my paladin. I was fighting him was getting low on health, had popped ip2 a 30secs ago, i disengage and try to pop eh ability. Well let's say he had gotten some substantial damage on me when i realised i couldn't use a item yet. I eventually ate the dust vs him :p.

I used to log on, stare at housing for 10 minutes, then realise I didnt want to play DAOC and log back off....damn those 10 minutes before realising I shouldnt have logged on!! (does that count as a timer?)

One thing I used to do now and then was crafting on my sorc - so equipped the crafting dagger (+10 str) so i could carry more, then when in RvR would realise I still had it equipped quite often - so if anyone saw a dagger wielding sorc (usually face down or in the middle of an explosion) that was meh :(

Casters now have buffbots to buff up their brittle guards.. This really is a sad day for us all!! :(


oh... wait... nvm


I don't normally have pot amnesia (unless you mean forgetting I actually have them with me), but I will try and use 2 seperate item charges within 5 seconds of each other regularly and wonder why it's not working!
