Now this sounds really strange but we are getting 100% success now, the player "YES I said player" does /setper at the dancer you get a sys message that you direct your attention to the dancer. Strange but true.






We tried this tonight with no success. I danced, Scip watched and did /setp. I got the message. He did not get a buff.

From the patchnotes that will go live today:

Dancer

* Fixed a problem with the Dancer Mind buff

So I assume it will work again soon.

1) was he in your group? Perhaps being in group overwrites /setperform now.


neither mattered. He did not receive a buff when using /setp on me.



2) was he getting a music buff at the same time?


No, neither of us played music during the time we had those characters logged on that server. Nor were we around other entertainers while they performed during that log in.



2a) if yes, was the musician grouped as well?


n/a



2b) if yes, did he /startwatch or /startlisten first?


n/a



2c) if yes, did he /stopwatch or /stoplisten first?


n/a



3) are you sure he watched?


yes


Did he get the "you start watching XY" message?


yes And we both got the message when he /setp.


There are still situations where /watch doesn't work, while you're meditating for example, or while performing yourself (using the radial menu works though in those circumstances)



4) was he standing, sitting, meditating, running around, or even playing music/dancing himself?


He was standing, not performing.






For what it's worth..we're both experienced testers.

I'll vouch for that. I'll also vouch for Scip being the new Musician Correspondent.

no i tried setting on each group member yesterday and only the last one /set on got the buff.. i gave up on that theory after one try..lol.


I've tried jsut about everything but nothing can overcome the passive buff problem and leaders not getting dance buffs seems to be pretty random but unsettlingly common. I've got so many frustrated customers... we've even tried just doin one buff at a time and most still arent getting the dance buffs. It seems like specific players are bugged more than anything else. Yesterday I could get buffs, today i can't.. many of my customers are having the same problem where they got them at some point since the patch and then at some random point they cant get anymore mind buffs (both dance and music)


As to the multiple /set it doesnt seem to matter.. many of my customers are getting full 2 hour buffs regardless of how many times they're /set on.


But we did notice somethign odd today. I started listening to my musician about 2 min into her regular buff cycle and then she ran out of action and stopped while i stimmed her..Istarted back up and i got my next 2+ minutes of listening in. When i /stoplisten'd itgave the "you must listen for at least 2 min" blah blah message but i'd had about 5 min total. When this happened i was not grouped with her but i had her /set on me manually. I'm wondering if something similar to this is happening with the dance buffs when a dancer runs out of action or stops for any reason during the buff. If the buffs arent continuing to accumulate after a stop in performance, that could easily explain why so many people arent getting buffed. I'll try testing this further tomorrow if some fixes dont come down the pipe.
