Notsure if I understood your question very well butwhen you see a buff pack listed in a vendor is usually something like 900/32/12000s MU 90. What that means is Power/Uses/Duration and the Med Use on the pack (MU). Or sometimes they list the Duration already converted to hours and the Med Use after the Duration, like 900/32/3:20/90.

Med Use is normally listed as well because if a pack has a 90 or lower med use it means it is a Non-Master Doc pack, so it can be used by any Doctor with 0440 (That's Master Wound Treatment and Master Medicine Knowledge only on the Doc tree).

Ok ... well, the PERFECT buff pack (meaning the Doctor that made it used only resources on their max quality limit to make it) is 974 power and 14200s duration, which in the end, will roughlygive you a buffof 2680for 3:55 hours. But that would be pretty much the "hard cap" on a buff pack. So don't go looking for regular packs with those stats, because you won't find. It's just nice to have it as a reference.

Nowthanks to the recent 30k Resource Deeds that anyof the 180+ days old players could claim as their Veteran Reward andthat most craftingDocs where using it to claim the best avian spawn that they ever had in their server,I would say thatat this point, no matter in which server you are you shouldn't have any problem to find 915+ power (2500 buffs)and over 3 hours duration packs for sale. Those, IMO, are very good packs already that you shouldn't hesitate in buying it if you can't find anything higher.

Also, there is a looted component called Janta Blood that can be used as a replacement for one of the subcomponents in a buff pack and that can render more power to the pack. Usually 100+ extra power. So you might be able to find packs with 1000+ power for sale in your server, but thosehave to be hand-crafted by a Doc using thoseJanta Bloods so they usually cost at least 3xmore what a "regular" pack with the highest power that can be made in your server would cost you.

As for where can you find them in Farstar, I'd suggest you to make a thread in your server Trade Forums asking the same question, I'm sure there are plenty of Docs there that have them for sale atm and that will gladly respond to you.

Well ...that waskind of along reply, but at leastIthink I got it all covered regarding buff packs.

Simple, u need a medic droid with +110 medic, Bivoli 24.5x minimum and +25 medic clothing. Now the clothings are BIO engineer clothingsand should not bethat hard to find. That will max out your buff...

I use the above, with 910 buffpacks and do 2495 in buff... Works like a charm...

Yep, what he/she said. Just a few other things to consider as well... If you're NOT a Master Doc but still can use Med Use 90 packs that means that your Wound Treatment skill is +75 instead of the 100 you would get as a Master (And no Biv or BE Clothes can make up for that last +25). So that could be the reason why you getting lower buffs with a 934 power pack (Although it wouldn't make too much sense, since if that was the case you should get a buff in the 2300 mark, not 2200). Also, make sure the BF (Battle Fatigue)of the person you're buffing is lower than 250, otherwise that will also affect your final power.

And last of all, if you're looking to boost your buffs even more you can look up for a Player City that is set up as a Medical Center in your server, where you will get a 10% bonus to all your healing. (Buffs included)

Yep. Like I told you, with anything over 0440 but under Master Doc your Wound Treatment skill as a Doc is stuck at +75. The +25 BE Clothes and +25 Biv plays no part on that.

So without being Master that is a higher as you will be able to buff (unless you buff in a Med City like I already mentioned before as well).
