Thought I'd pop on here since I haven't came to this board in quite some time.


Just trying to get some information on why, in the last patch, did they make you have to wait 2 mins for the buff to start and now you can't get both entertainer buffs at the same time?


A doctor can buff someone all 6 stats in less time it takes for someone to even start to get a buff from us.

Welcome back! The title of your thread puts me in mind of "Enterprise," a TV show I haven't watched in a long time. "It's been a long time, gettin' from there to here / It's been a long time, but my time is finally here / And I will see my dream come alive atlast / I will touch the sky..."


Ahem. (looks around with embarrassment) Anyway.


The two-minute minimum was put in place to stop an XP exploit. You could /start and /stop in quick succession to gain 4x experience. It also was a means of buffing in as little as a few seconds. As for buff duration, the inability to get both the dancer and musician buff is not intended; I believe the devs are aware of this bug. But the two-minute minimum was intended, and it's actually not that different from a doctor, who takes 108 seconds minimum to buff all six stats. If they fix the Musician/Dancer bug so that we can apply both simultaneously, then our minimum buff time won't be that much greater than a doctor's, and ... well, we're not doctors anyway. We're performers. We don't inject people. We perform, over time.


Anyway, welcome back.

I'm still a faithful watcher of Enterprise. I like how they finally decided to put Star Trek in its title.


Ok, thanks for the info. It is quite funny how a patch can have ill affects toward professions that they were not even patching.

Niklesnitz, some of the new bugs may derive from the one goodie we did get in this patch: our cute new droids. Have you acquired a performance droid yet? If not, run, don't walk, to your friendly DE and pick up a couple. They're just great fun. But I think they have a few cicadas hidden in their machinery, and the bugs are getting in the way of some of our other activities.

no, I hardly play on the server that I originally started on, which houses my musician. I go there every once in awhile just to be able to play the songs again, but I don't spend any significant time with my musician character anymore.
