    A players inability to pvp can't seem to be purged.b:surrender

    I run around in foxform debuffing everyone in a TW and I don't think I've seen something I haven't been able to purge quite yet.

    Im pretty sure invoke the spirit can be purged. Going to go test it out.
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    Turtle is the only buff that I know of that cannot be purged.
    I know for sure because I've tested it.

    yeah I know barb invoke can't be purged - have NO IDEA why, but it can't be.

    Not sure about invincibility from spark/skills/pots

    hari: can you do mdef debuffs? makes the fight go faster
    naughty_x: waste, I do more damage without them
    hari: ...you do more damage in 2 seconds than reducing mdef by 35% for 4 casters does in 20 seconds?
    naughty_x: is waste, i do more damage

    hari: 3-3 BH goes a lot faster with a sin
    naughty_x: no, only a difference of like 3 minutes
    hari: ...we've been in here a lot longer than 3 minutes already

    correct me if i'm wrong (as i dont use foxform), but doesn't purge's description specifically state "removes ALL positive buffs from target"?

    sounds like a bug/glitch to me b:angry

    Its not a bug/glitch, they purposefully changed turtle to not be "pugreable" a couple months ago.
    It serves as the barbs last hope for survival in TW's. With the ability to purge it, the skill would be virtually useless.

    But I agree they should alter the text to read "Removes most postive buffs from the target"
    b:bye PW

    Was purging "invoke the spirit" changed in the patch that also made barb flesh ream unmissable? Might be why I always remembered invoke being purgable.

    I'm fairly sure it was, yes.

    I can remember purging it awhile back, but I've tested it recently and it doesn't work. I heard some other barb skills were edited as well... so it was probably at the same time.
