Hi! My character is Dancer. I want to know what is the method to buff. The good method. I know the command /setperformance of course.


But I need to know:


-How much time others charactes have to watch to get a full buff? (8 min, 2 min,10 min? this is not clear!)


-How many flourishes do the dancer must do?


-What is the quick way to buff? Can someone postthe 30 seconds macro or explain it?



Thank you.

As of the April 27 publish, the MINIMUM the client must watch to get any buff at all is 2 minutes. This is a minimum for any buff, it does not mean they will get a full duration (2 hours) buff.


As for number of flourishes, I am not going to attempt to do the math, but if you flourish 5 times every eight seconds for 3 minutes and 12 seconds the client will have the full duration buff.


There is no 30 second buff, it no longer works as of the April 27 Publish. As far as I know the fastest way to buff is as outlined in the previous paragraph.

This whole thing has been bugging the heck out of me...so......


I AM going to try to attempt the math......


If Electro's numbers are correct...then one needs to perform 120 flourishes for a fully formulated buff.


Here's how that would break down.


4 mins: A flourish every 2 seconds


6 mins: A flourish every 3 seconds


8 mins: A flourish every 4 seconds


10mins: A flourish every 5 seconds


Obviously...you're going to need to reinforce your Action pool or be healed with some frequency. And with the flourishes coming that fast and furious...I can't say much about the 'artistic' quality of the performance. But if someone wants a buff quick...that's the price they have to pay...and I seriously doubt if they're looking forartistic qualityin the first place.


I'm going to try this on some poor unsuspecting soul when I log back in. I'll get back to you as to it's accuracy...*G*
