Buffing?????

[nerfdom]

Is Mythic going to do anything about buffing? Tis fair wearing me out deliberating whether to use one in BG etc. I have used a full aug Shaman and still do as i have a few to help with levelling now. With buffs i can solo reds with my SB - and that is not having to take heals sometimes. Now i am finding loads are using them in BG1 and lets face it everyone knows the damage increase from them. Infact i have used one and been transformed in BG but at the cost of upsetting lots of new players.

I mean are Mythic going to make it so everyone can have a buffer or are they gonna stop the use of them totally - the later i think makes more sense to make the BG zones etc more new player friendly. I mean they could keep just stop the buffs in them zones and leave the rest of the game alone couldn't they?

It is getting to the point where peoples enjoyment of the game is being totally destroyed. Even i am thinking of what is the point of not using one when to be ganked by 2 or more buffed to the hilt infs that then debuff you too boot is hardly fair.

Unlikely that buffbots will ever dissapear, and ive gotten to the stage where i dont care anymore i just think its dumb, really plain dumb

When buffbots first became, they gave the owner an advantage and he could win most battles, people copped on and got themselves ones too, now were faced with the situation that buffs no longer give an advantage, they just even the playing field. If all these buffbot users got a bit of common sense they would realise, aha if we all stop using our bots, everything will be the exact same as it is right now, only i save 8 quid a month!

2 accounts

Well i use them for levelling purposes as i have 2 accounts. If you were to stop the use of such like as Shamans totally then you would have a major problem as so many people would get very upset - as you would expect. I would be happy though to stop using one totally so that we all exist on a level playing field so to speak. Tis not really the point though - tis in places like BG where you come into contact with other people - some of which are, i suppose traumatised, to but it bluntly. I mean my girlie took a lot of pursuading to go to BG0 in the first place cos getting killed by people upsets her - monsters np. But to get enough courage to make it and then to meet up with a buffed/sc'd whatever killer has totally stopped her going there again! Uptil the point where that occured she was enjoying herself!!!

Perhaps the above is overstating things but i remember when i first started going to BG - and even now at times - i was terrified - sweaty palms etc. But now i should think the experience is far worse as the buffers are now out in force.

Anyways - nothing will be done about it i suppose and could well cause me to pack the game in cos i really don't want to get to 50 or so and have to buff up all the time - makes a mockery of all the training and the effort of obtaining equipment.

mythic are really good at what they doing

almost everyone whined about buffbots at some point..but look at them now?they are all happy with their own BB

Nothing will ever happen about it.
Why?
Cuz for every buffbot owner there is mythic earns double subscription fee.
Though I did hear at one time talks about a limited range for bufss concerning all classes.

yes, I'm gimped without, I'm gimped with

I use a bot, but lately, I cba arsed to go through all the hassle of buffing up and running out to get own'd, easier to just run out of mpk and die that way

Bots in BG is annoying, I play BG's for a lower, easier time, rather then high level, which I admit I find tough.

But I don't understand why people moan over and over again, if you can, why not? if you can't ask someone who can if you are worried about it.


But I agree, buffbots in RvR isn't right, but in PvE, their a great leveling aid, not to mention farming, etc

Mythic and money!!

Well i have had enough and have stopped my 2 accounts - and my girlie is stopping hers - 3 paying accounts down the drain!!

Have fun - somehow or other!

Seem to recall one of the TL report responses saying that they will not be implementing ranges in buffs. Forget which report though
