Today I buffed a few people who already had some remaining time on a previous buff from another doc. Surprisingly, both buff icons showed up under their HAM (old buff and my new one). This would imply that the character now had 20% to their health, and is definitelya new occurance. Wasn't able to really test if they did indeed have a stronger buff, but has anyone else noticed? Can we grant larger buffs if multiple docs work together, or is this just a UI boo-boo?

Don't know if it is intended but buffs do stack, if you use different skills. I.e. Normal, Intermediate and advanced skill levels stack. Since you always use the best skill you have available you need to have doctors / medics at different levels to make them stack.

I thought i read something in the announcements that buffs now stack, but i took it just to mean that, say, if someone's buff still has 20min left and you reaply it, the timer goes back to 40+min. Didn't think it meant you could now go over 10% and stack their effectiveness?!? Will have to try this ingame and find out.

There was a post last week that said the different level buffs stack. I dont rememebr the names of them, but essentially the Medic Health Buff, the improved Doctor version, and the advanced Doctor verision all stacked. The poster told about how they found that they could get a 30% buff from the same personwhile training skills, but I would imagine you could do the same thing with 3 buffers - a medic, non-master doc, and master doc.

LOL
I just read this post and realized that I lost the lower level abilities.
Now you need 3 toon to get a 30% buff, what a load of stuff.
Still don't need any products to do the buffs.
It is so obvious that this is a totally new and incomplete game.

What are the chances of finding a Master Doc, Novice Doc, and Master Medic all at the same time?
Maybe we'll see people teaming up to offer triple-buffs and start charging alot of money again?!?

It's actually not hard to find at least 20% worth. Myself, I'm a master doc, I have a friend thats a master doc... and I have 2 CM friends that also took the enhancement line in novice medic.... so thats 20% at least at any given time if we are together.
You may be surprised at the number on novice medics out there with the enhancement line
