1. aegis spirit(magic shell on aoe) seems 2 disappear randomly, when i cast it at whole party all got it and 10 minutes after that i lost it even my group still has it, wtf is that?
2. How exactly do the phys/mag debuffs work?
will they for instace reduce the enemies physres by 20% of mine?, means when im arcane cleric this wouldnt be much so only elemental seal makes sense couz 20% from 6k is alot more than from 2k?
how usefull would u rate the debuffs anyway since somehow u cant say how much more dmg u do on the enemy couz it just tells u their def is reduced by % and not how much more dmg % that might be.
i started casting it on bosses now but im not sure if its worth it, got both seals on lvl4.

    I have my mag debuff at level 10. It is useful in pvp as well as bosses. I have checked, and the damage you do on the boss (or others who use magic attacks) does indeed increase. But the debuff isn't the most important skill to level. Level all of your heals, buffs, main attacks, rez, and purify first. Then you can move onto the debuff. It's not all that expensive to level, anyway, and it could prove to be very useful if you plan to do TW or are on the pvp servers.

    Maxed debuffs raize dmg by about 25% in pve and 15% in pvp (i was told that only basic def is affected, all additional def gained from buffs is not reduced).

    I'd suggest to leave these seals aside and level chromatic seal (sleep) before all others. Much more useful.

    Is tis bug ever gonna be fixed? Since my Aegis Spirit last just as long as my normal Magic Shell which is around 10 min.. Kinda a waste of 30K spirit since I hoped to finally have a normal buff duration.. My Magic Shell only lasts for 10 min instead of 30 and now Aegis Spirit does the same..

    Even if I buff a higher lvl shell it doesn't matter, lvl 10 is lvl 10 anyway.. Magic Shell should stay for 30 min according to the tooltip, it doesn't stay for any longer than 10 min.. Aegis Spirit also should be lvl 10 so wouldn't matter if overwritten, but according to the tooltip it should stay for 1 hour, but in fact also doesn't stay any longer than 10 min.. Don't know how you got to a conclusion like that without reading it all :P

    For those who doesnt no.

    BUFFS DONT STACK WITH ITSELF!!!

    If you buffed yourself once with normal buffs and 20 mins later u used AOE buff it just gives buff to other people who doesnt have it. For you that buff will do nothing. 10 min later your buff will expire cuz game doesnt count AOE buff. (Bug i guess)

    So if you wanna group buffing use it when you and your party members doesnt have that buff on.


    And BTW if you using Seals use purify after cuz purify will remove debuff from you. ;)
