Keep walkin in your delusion for you actually do play a ranger as your main char now, and thats more than enough to understand your twisted logic.

And what exactly is my delusion? And no, I don't play a Ranger on Uthgard.

GUYS, stop the Bull and get back to TOs question...

My Buffpattern is the following:

1.) Realm Speed
2.) D/Q (Ring of Anarchy) and S/Q (Barrel)
3.) Haste (Belt of Technique) and Base Dex (Barrel)
4.) AF Charge (on armor) and Base Str (Barrel)
5.) Base Con (Barrel)
7.) When fight starts: DA (GK Bracer of Chaos) or sometimes Damage Shield (Ring of Chaos)
8.) In or after fight: Heal pot when necessary (Barrel)

So in general i am fully buffed after 3 minutes. I use that time to get to combat area. When u use charge/pot u are unstealthed. But as mentioned before it is very short period of time so you should not be spotted with a little practice.

One tip to shorten unstealth time: If you go with a pattern like mine, make sure to use charge off items first and then the pot from barrel/bottle. Then you dont have any delay. If you go other way around, you have a wait time until you can use charge after the pot....

Cheers!

So you're only fully buffed for 2 minutes before you have to do it all over again?

nope. Buffs last 10 mins. I will be fully buffed for seven minutes. After those I will start losing my buffs in same order a mentioned above. But its quite easy. As soon as the buff logo starts blinking, I rebuff, thats it....

One thing that needs to be mentioned is, that it is a very expensive thing to be fully buffed. a charge costs me 10g, a sip out of the barrel somewhere between 1g and 3g. So for being fully buffed I spend 34-42g! So I need a KPD Rate of at least 2-3 in order to justify that....

Cheers

thx for your valuable input indeed!

Jea we all feared the army of inbalanced solo friars and wardens back in OF
It was like WLs or BDs they fking raped zergs with thier oped self-Buff line and thier low Weaponspec. But good for us they allowed us to lame arround with Buffbots, thank god.

An all those awesome Buffs Thanes had, i mean str-buff AND DMG-add wtf? what was mythic smoking?

So but back to reality, buffpotions are very unfair for wardens and friars, Like buffbots were on live. Doesnt matter anyways because This is not a solo game and Friars/Wardens/Thanes are really rare outside PvM.

I think thats a pretty poor way of looking at it. I think the game would be made a bit more interesting if Wardens/Friars/Thanes actually HAD a desirable group buff.

in Fact they are all pretty decent on live now. But you guys have to play "the good old Times" so they have to suck like they did on classic.
I Played friar on live and friar/thane/warden on almost every freeshard and enjoyed them alot.
