Thread: Buffs have way to much variance!
I am a fairly new Doctor. So far I have only been buffing friends, and here's why ..
They vary to wildly ! I buff anywhere from 985 to 3005, (my highest yet). I wear bio'd clothes with over +25 to healing, my droid is +125 and yet I still get this weird range. Is this normal ? I am afraid to buff for a fee because of this variance. Also, I've checked and it's not the packs. The same pack can have the same results. I don't want people running around saying I give lousy buffs. Am I doing something wrong here? All my packs are right around 850. Sometimes all my buffs are over 2000 on the same person, and sometimes I get wild results. I think at master the results should not vary like this.
Feedback appreciated -)

Congratulations! You have qualified for the skill Interediate Choir Preaching
Personally, I try to ease the pain of a bad buff by tipping back 1K for each buff under that
I could be wrong, but I read (or mis-read) that buffs will be cancelable after the next publish. If a buff is lousy, they can take the 1K back from me, or.......give me another 2K for a re-attempt. Gotta love that.

Don't worry about charging a fee, I charge 10k and return 1k for everybuff that under 2k....People actually accept the 10k fee cause they know they will probably end up paying 6 or 7k for a full set.
I hit for 3339 for one stat and the next one is at 1090
Wait. I've got a fairly new Master Doctor, I've read the FAQs several times, and - maybe - I didn't remember reading that you need a surgical droid nearby to do better buffs. Is this right?
Darn. I've only done buffs so far without a droid, and have been really disappointed with the ranges. I don't think she's hit the 3000 mark yet. I will pull out her surgical droid if that will make her buffs better.

Sorry.
I'd take it back if I could.
Dont worry about it, just a touchy topic in here, hehe.
More of "how does this work?" kinda stuff for things that we don't think are broken, but we have no idea how they work.
BF is on the list as well.
