Currently we are on a un-buffed/non buffbot server, with major use of charged and pot buffing in use. Alot of players even run with 4 or more buffs up. These buffs are not a skill you learn, it doesnt make you more skilled at the game, they are just passive buffs you get and to make you stronger then those who are not using as much buffing as they can get. Currently Pot and Charged stat buffs are only 10min, which is very short for the amount of time it sometimes can take to find an enemy, as a high cost of money. Most of time, its just an incovenice that brings own the enjoyment of RvR. I personaly carry 2 pots and 2 charges for combat, and most of the time i dont want to waste money by using it when there maybe no enemys around, or if i buff up and get double or even triple teamed at a gate, well that just makes it awaste to buff and inconvenent. But if i dont buff and face an enemy, that is more likely to be fully buffed, they will have an advantage over me.

So i think these stat buffs from pots and charges should be 20min or removed all together. When there is an equal number of non self casting buffs, vs someone with the same number of non self buffs, its balanced. So both without those buffs is also balanced. So i think these buffs need to be made more convenent to use for all, since newer players the join the server will see. O no buffbots, but when they go out in rvr, soon they will release they need to carry at least 2 pots of 100 charge stats and 2 charges and keep them up in many cases. What a draw back to game play. At least if it was 20min, you wouldnt have to blow threw your gold so fast or if removed it wouldnt have in impact on your gold. But that is an opiton those who dont self buffs will fight to the death about lol, so increase to 20min is the only other thing i can think up. Unless uthgard wants to just make a merchant that sells these pots and charges, but then again why not have a buffbot NPC. Of course that would be stupid, the direction of this server is non buff bots, but yet we have a minor situation of alchmist that are now somewhat buffbots now.

This is a comment to the staff, not to others who will just start the exact same discussion as before, so im ignoring and will not reply to anyone else then staff for this thread. Feel free to reply the same things as said before, it doesnt matter. You can remove them or make them 20 min, or heck make them have no timer, they still have the same impact, if your enemy has them, you need them to be balanced, if your enemy doesnt have them, you dont need them. And im talking about the pots and charge stat buffs, not self buffs as i explained before, there is a major diffrence in the two.

On live its also 20 mins value on Pots, idk if its the same with charges. But why not 20 mins? Would save so much damn time and nerves...

On live its also buffbots.

20 min was a 1.84 change.

I want this I want that or just remove it .... this is so annoying.

It's right - 10min is not long and you run out of buff easily but it's the same for your enemies - so it's all equal.

No.

On a side note, the cost of recharging should be brought back (read lowered) to its livelike state, because in OF you either wait a long time for inc or you get zerged in an instant.

Ill second all the others, NO!
