I'm surprised there are people that retain their buffs when they log off. I know if someone logs off for 30 seconds and back on, they keep them so I don't mean that. But I have 2 chars I play and when I log off my buffed self to get on my other char, then come back, my buffs are gone but the timer is still going.


I would guesstimate that if i'm logged off for more than 5 minutes or so, this always happens.







I have been logged off as long as 30 mintues and the timer is still going stopping me from buffing. Heck yesterday I buffed clear a Control Base logged off before the shutdown then when the server came but up still had the timer running. So much a server reset during the daily down time. This morning I went ahead adn had a friend kill me so I can buff again when the servers are up again.


Thanks for putting in death penalties even WITH unplayable bugs left in the game Devs.

Bah, that stinks. I still can't figure out what is causing this.

My workaround now is to keep a MSE droid with an empty storage module in it.
That way if they get apprehensive about /db; /revive -- I give them the droid to store armour/ clothes in while they die.

I get the "already has an enhancement" message ALL the time. I use a doc alt to buff myself and friends which I keep on a second computer.


Most commonly it happens after going LD, server going down before the buffs wear off, or after deaths. I have had it happen a few times from none of the above as well.


The most annoying part of this is that my patients cannot be buffed in the said attribute for exactly another timer of the buff they previously had on. (Yes, I've actually seen my buffs wear off, tried buffing myself, saw the msg, started a timer based on the duration of the buffs that were on, and found that I could only rebuff that attribute once the timer went off.)


Logging out and back in doesnt fix it, restarting the client doesn't fix it, restarting your computer doesn't fix it... However, deathblowing the paitent and rez'ing them does fix it in all my cases. /shrug lol.

Saw this happen again last night


Doc tells the guy "I'll just kill and rez ya, that's the work around"


They duel, Doc starts plinking away with his pea shooter


Patient auto defends, drops doc in two shots


Run over, heal up the doc (He's a little shaken LOL)


Doc orders the patient to get naked(I think he could have just said "take off you armor") and lay flat on his belly!!


Doc runs a safe distance and once again plinks away.


Eventually kills and rezzes the guy, but it took a goodfive minutes of plinking, laughing, bleeding, etc


My whole point was... is this stil happening to others after the patch?


Let us know!!

I had this problem on myself yesterday where my buffs wore of naturally according to their timers, then I could not rebuff myself, I had to get someone to DB me after 10 minutes of trying. I wasn't about to wait forever as we were actually hunting.

This has been happening to my stamina for 1.5 weeks already. Each day I try to buff my stamina but I cant. Here is what I have submitted in a SWG ingame support email. Yes for more than a week after countless logouts I still cannot buff my own stamina bar.



The following is information on the galaxy I play and which the one my character is bugged:


Name : Raimahk

Server: Naritus

Race: Zabrak

Professions: Master Doctor and Master CM

Declared Residency: Lok'n'Load Player City on Lok.



The problem I have is that I cannot buff my stamina stat. I have been a Master Doctor for about 1 month. this has never happened to me ever before. This started happening to me about 1 week ago for some odd reason. My enhance packs are all D packs, the highest ones a Master Doctor can make. I use these while going in combat to make sure I have the HAM and secondary stats to defeat my enemies. But as stated above I CANNOT buff my STAMINA stat for some odd reason. Yes, I can buff all other 5 stats which include the following: Health, Action, Quickness, Strength, Constitution. But I cannot buff the following: STAMINA.


I logged out last night claiming that a log out and a server reset would do it, but I was wrong. After logging back in more than 8 hours after my logout and a server reset and a new patch today I was still unable to buff my own stamina. I did not EAT any foods or drinks prior to buffing myself today. I DID not eat any spice prior to buffing my stamina. I did not RECEIVE a buff from another doctor as I logged-in inside my private house.


My friend, ogbotwae , also a Master Doctor, was unsuccessful in buffing my stamina with her Enhance packs. She said she received the following message that I had received when trying to buff my stamina.


"You already have an enhancement to that attribute"



The following link has two pictures which show the message and my character sheet as well so you can see I have not eaten or drinked anything and see as my other five stats are perfectly buffed and my Master Doctor title.
