What's this? That's...new. Can you recreate it or tell us how to do so?

a friend of mine (and fellow MM) tried to re-create and nothing... might have been a fluke.


I joined a group that had 2 other people in it (rather than create the group myself). the 3 of us were alone in a Player city cantina.


I started playing "Virt." on the nalargon and then typed /setperform <and the leader's name>


the other person just listened.


I ran out of action pretty quickly and no-one around to heal so had to stop before I thought the buff worked.


she got a 48 min. buff


I got a 2 hour one.... that's it.


I sure hope this wasn't a fluke or bug.. I'm sooo tired of buffing everyone but me!

Stuff like this has been seen before. Generally its a case of listening to someone grouped and not realising it or having a "banked" buff. A Banked buff is when you listen in the normal buff process and do not /stoplisten when you walk away. It can be activated, even hours later, by typing /stoplisten or by playing and stopping or by listenign to someone else, even if they are not buffing you, and walking out of range.


If it can be reproduced that would be news.

That was my first thought as well. I've had this happen a few times, after being grouped with master musicians, and not /stoplistening when leaving the group. Later on, I'd play a bit, which made me /listen to myself, in turn canceling the /listen on the previously grouped Master, and the buff kicked in.


Either that, or it was just a weather balloon reflecting the light off of Venus...
