[dev1058] RDM Merit 2 Hour

[Daniel_Hatcher]

Did you get to try that new JA they announced? Might it stack with the 2h?

I bet I know the answer, but can't hurt to ask.

new JA?

I tried it with the new two-hour.

Atleast they are eyeballing one thing we were talking about, more blink shadows. I also considered the addition of a buff or trait that perhaps increases resistance to having a rdm's selfcasted buffs removed. (Perhaps limiting them to one per dispel/steal spell/steal ja). I think that could go a long ways indeed.

Yeah, its just we have to wait 2 hours between every use of it, I don't think my NMs and mobs will wait that long to start swinging at me again.

[Crimson_Slasher]

Agreed, but atleast it means they are admitting it can be done and possibly will fix it separately.

Can nm dispel the 2h buffs?

Never tried, can't think of an NM that does Dispel enough, and no one I know is on the test-server to try in PVP.

I'd say a safe bet is Yes.

My bad, for a moment I thought there was both the 2h and a seperate JA with similar powers.

Anyway, not even double potency is utter bollocks.

Go fight Ash Dragon in Ifrit's Cauldron or the red Dragons(can't think of their names atm) out in MountZ, they use a song attack that dispels all buffs normally, just make sure you do not Silence them or they will not use it.

Current numbers seem to suggest a 20~50% increase from what Daniel_Hatcher said, come on Square, you can do better than this.

Dahak and every buff wore off.

Interestingly 2-hour does absolutely nothing to the Gain spells, going to go and check Stoneskin now.

Stoneskin seems to absorb more damage, not sure how much though as I said no one I know is on the Test Server so had to use Sabotender. I'd say at least 500.
