Hi guys,


Iv been a Mstr Doc on Chimaera for about 2 months now, I have noticed a very odd thing in relation to buffs. Now i dont know if this is well known or not, my Guild dont know and quite frankly we are stumped.


If i buff someone on all 6 stats it seems that their mind is more susceptable to damage. If I buff them without Quickness then it doesnt seem to affect their mind so much!!?? How on earth is this the case? is this a bug or are we just missing something glaring obvious here, I have buffed a pistoleer and a bounty hunter the effects are the same.


Anyone help me here please?

For some reason, if quickness is buffed high enough, the move that takes action away will instead take you mind away. So if you get strength, quickness, and focus high enough, the move will not cost any HAM.

Sounds more like a feature so that buffed characters dont consume ham and allow specials to be used at their maximum rate.

After playing the game continually buffed, I can't see how you play any other way. I think we're all supposed to be buffed.

Use a few specials and a spineflap gatherer becames dangerous.

yes feature maybe i can understand some pay off here, but it would be nice to be told the effect before your customers start whining about it LOL, luckily it was only my guild that noticed. Hopefully this may help thos of you who may get asked this. So does this mean then dont do quickness for 90% of customers???

your specials all take costs from health, action, and mind, all determined from your gun ham cost, your special move ham cost, and your stats. the number floating above your head when you fire a special shows you what pool cost you the most, and how much. if you dont have any buffs at all to mind substats, the special cost for your mind pool is the same rather your buffed or not. just since your buffed thats your highest cost so thats what is displayed when you use your special. if you shoot a few specials while unbuffed, you will see that not only does your main pool you see above your head get hit, but your 2 others get hit as well, just not as much.

Yes cap i know that effect thats not what im talking about here. 2 Smugglers and 1 bouny hunter macroed their repsective weapons in 5 cycles, mind damage was the same as you say with the visual display, but there mind loss was quicker...its def right I've seen it ! this is why im stumped here, it seems your mind pool drains faster than when your Quicknessis buffed! Take itaway theyseemed to get noticebly less mind damage. We are really foxed by this tbh, if any of you can test your experiences tooi'd like to know for sure, i amgoing to test it with TKA tonite see what it does for that.
