Thread: Double buffs? Any one else seen them since pub20

I was online for a little bit last night and I noticed several double buffs (ie two icons for health buff). I know in the past you could do this with one 4000 medic basic buff from one person and a improved doc version from a second person. However, I saw this several times yesterday and was wondering if there isn't something broken.


My first thought was that the icon simply is not getting overwritten with a new buff (ie if the same doc applies a buff a second time it used to refresh the icon). Perhaps the buff is getting refreshed but not the icon.


I will try to play around with it tonight but if anyone else has seen this please give a yell.

Sup Marrow,


I can't say that I've noticed the double buffs, but haven't really looked, but I have noticed Double XXX for just about every ability in the game. Currently, 2 snares = a root (almost). Lot's of bugs in the last patch.

Confirmed, it looks like triple buffs would work; Regular, Improved, Advanced Nutrient Injections.

Needs more testing, also Improved and Regular versions of the other buffs.. I'll see if I can find a 4004 Doc and test this tonight, will report back what I find.

It shouldn't be "fixed" it's fine like it is...
it actually makes sense... if you think about it.

Uhh... no it's not "fine like it is". If they wanted us to get adouble buffs they would havemade the levels twice over (or more). As of the day before the publish I was still getting this. Most often in the Ryatt Trails or areas on the Wookie world thatwere an instance. Only once did we get more then 2 of a buff on a single person (3 Health Buffs, but of the others placed on the targets, thetimers reset for one of the two buffs already in place). It did not appear to be tied to the use of food, spice, or other buffs. I was able to get double buffs on anyone in the vicinity (grouped or not and using other buff formats or not) at the time the doubles appeared. Original Docbuffs were, however, placed by another player (sometimes of my level but most often of a lower skill use)


Post publish 21 I've not been able to duplicate it.

Kind of new to the doc thing, but while I had the low level buffs I did accidently put double buffs on people, but I mainly noticed the doubling up on armor break and foods that I ate. On the 5th I noticed that the food and armorbreak doubling had been fixed, and I figured the doc buffs were fixed too. It used to work that if you did the lower effect first you could stack a higher level one on top, but not the other way around, and I know that is fixed. As an example, if you ate a blob candy you could then drink a brandy, but you couldn't eat the candy after you drank the drandy, now the brandy replaces the blob candy stat instead of stacking with it. I haven't tested the doc stuff with a medic yet, but if you were going to test it make sure the medic buffs first and then see if the doc buff replaces it (check timer I guess).
