In past there was few topics about this, i personally send a ticket about it, and still after months nothing is being done.

Your explanation
""There is currently a known issue in which the single-target 30-minute long Magic Shell buff is not overwritten by the party-wide hour-long version, Aegis Spirit. This may be the cause of your problem. We are working to resolve this issue, but we have no ETA for it. In the meantime, rest assured that both buffs have identical effects, and it is only the duration and number of targets that differ between the two.""

Well its not the problem in that. If i set a macro of 30min buffs (or cast every single buff by picking it from the skill list) then after lets say 10min i do the same, i cast my 30min buffs. All buffs except Magic Shell will last 30min since last time it was applied, and Magic Shell will last only 20min or better said it wont be overwritten like other buffs.
The same problem applies to 1h buff Aegis Spirit.

And dont be mad cause i am not sending a ticket, its just a personal opinion that you process it better when you have a mass of players confirming it at one place. And i am tired of dieing in middle of my aoe grind cause my buff goes south for the winter...

    this is perfect world, issues don't get resolved unless it would provide the company $. This problem has been around since before I started the game, there is no excuse except sheer lazyness of the Devs.

    It's the same for Blazing arrow for EA's you have to wait for it to run out to re-cast.

    This is indeed one of the most annoying things I've come across. It's been here since I started the game. I used to think I was doing something wrong. Then I was informed it was a "bug". I figured oh, well they'll fix it. Seven months later.... b:shocked

    Thank you Skybelle for the wonderful sig

    Where did you go, where did you go? How did you know to get out of a world gone mad? Help me let go of the chaos around me, the devil that hounds me. I need you to tell me "Child be still". If the darkest hour comes before the light, where is the light?

    I get this all the time when casting magic shell or aegis spirit as vangaurd spirit gets cancelled.

    yes that is a major bug with the buff times. i have just witnessed the mob flying up the wall glitch in FB59 metal area. i rezzed a friend, while a veno had her herc flying around trying to chase these mobs. my friends rose, and i watched him rise. i started healing him, then bam dead again. he was sniped by a mob 200 feet in the air with a metal bolt. (i think) im really not sure. there were no mobs within range to attack him and he had been down for a few minutes. all these guys were running away up the walls and to add insult to injury, they were turning yellow and regenerating. WTF in an FB? i cant believe why some of these glitches are being so blatently ignored!

    Has my vote in being fixed.

    Fair enough clerics have very few bugs, but this one is just annoying.

    Our class should be flawless because we support other people.

    You got 6/10 words wrong in that sentence. Far from being flawless. b:chuckle
