Ok, Dumb Question Incoming: I have seen people somehow target a chair and tell people to sit there and then a Join group pops up so that they can Buff while afk. How is this done? -Thanks

OK I've gone cross eyed looking for this, so if this has already been answered please link me and let me know, and I'll go look.


Do spice and or food buffs stack with dancer mind buff?


I've had several buffs fail (on covert targets, I'm very careful about that now! *blush*) and the common thread seems to be the Pixie.


I've not yet been able to have a group sit still long enough to group buff them..........the group I had the other night decided they wanted to run outside and kill (insert opposite faction here) rather than get buffed, so halfway through half of them died. *chuckle*

Just made master dancer,


I tried /setperf and buffing a friend, I have no stat enhancing items, or skill enhancing items.


I danced for a mere six minutes and had him /stopwatch at that point. It applied a 700pnt mind buff that was still up an hour later when I logged. I did my normal 12 pause flourishes.

My TKA have dance 4 in novice Entertainer, and healing 2 . I did for the heck of it /setperform to my other toon Mast doc/mast CM and it said you direct all your attention to %tt . Ill check in 8 minutes to see if it buffed him or not. If your in a group doign a group mind buff, how does every one get the benefit of it ? is there a command liek setperform ? or do they just have to be grouped with you and be watching you ?



Also does my own mind get buffed also when i either do a /setperform for a single person ? or will it get buffed itself if i do group mind buff ? or neither ? or how would i buff my own mind if it doesnt work like that

((Supposedly if they are grouped with you, they just need to be watching you. When they stopwatch, it should take. I say supposedly because I haven't noticed it working lately, and when you are grouped with someone you barely ever get the option to watch them to come up on your radial menu.


Currently, we can't buff ourselves at all. X_X))

((As far as I know, you have to be at least a novice dancer or musician to buff. You won't see the bar move until you /stopwatch or /stoplisten, though.))

I'm betting that /watch in a group is just as bugged as /listen. If I am dancing with a group and I want to listen to the band to know when to change dances I have to /listen to someone =BEFORE= I join the group, or I have zero chance of being able to. I've noticed this on both Kettemoor and Starsider server.



And unless someone can prove otherwise, I say group buff doesn't work =at=all=.

If you are referring to how /watch and /listen doesn't work, and watch and listen aren't on the radial menu due to too many options, you can right click on their name in the group window to get the full menu, not limited to 8 options.


I've done group buffs before quite successfully. Grab me sometime if you want a demonstration.

ok heres the deal


Im a rodian dancer... not even master... im 4-3-4-3... i did this using exotic 2...


first thing to do is get an action buff from someone capable... or drink a tatooine sunburn, but the duration is so short on those, that youd have to use one per buff....


this might only work for me, since i have action, quickness, and stamina all maxed (+rodian quickness bonus).... but I can flourish once per second (hold and item not too fall , duh) without so much as denting my action bar.


If you cant get the buff or the sunburn... its ok to stop and regen... (discount downtime on your 5 minute clock)... or wait for some bum to heal you (its ok if the buff-ee heals, always convienient)....


but... i start my exotic2 dance...


then activate this macro...


/flo 1;/pause 1;/ui action toolbarSlot11;


Go 5 minutes....



I'm fully convinced its more in the amount of flourishing than it is the amount of time... I always just do five minutes so as not to skimp though....


Best feeling in the world came the other day when a guy I buffed messaged me back and said "How'd you do that in just five minutes... its been 2 hours and 15 minutes and its still in effect" Then he said something about finding me everytime he needed a buff.


Those 8 second, 10 second, 20 second pauses though... folks, those have to go.
