    Adloquium new design or glitch?

    I just had to runs in wp and noticed the adloquium lasts for only about 4 seconds on the tanks. I do not recall it falling off like stoneskin before. Did it always do this? Lol

    If the shield value reaches 0 the buff will expire.

    The shield absorbs X amount of health; once the recipient takes X amount of damage, the shield vanishes. It's good to watch it, to make sure you aren't using Adlo while their old shield is still in place.

    Adloquium lasts 20 seconds if I'm not mistaken. If it lasts 4 now then it was modified. Thought might be a sporadic bug; I'm sure I saw it last 20 seconds yesterday when I was using it.

    it lasts 30 but close enough. in the TC's case one of two things happened: either he shielded and the person with the shield proceeded to take damage, thereby breaking the shield, or the TC encountered a bug. in any case i've never heard of the latter so I wouldn't worry about it if it in fact was a bug because it's not likely to happen again.

    maybe the warrior is removing it him self, not sure if you still can but if you clicked on your buff it would be removed before.

    I believe what is happening is you already had galavnize (new term for adlo bubble) on the person. You then cast adloquium again but the first was stronger than the second and therefor did not apply a new bubble.
    casting a lower healing adloquium will not renew the previous galvanize or replace the bubble.

    eg.
    First adloquium crit for 1000 putting a 2000 bubble on target
    with 4 seconds remaining on this bubble you cast a normal adloquium hitting for 700 which is a pathetic little 700 bubble. The new 700 bubble will not replace the 2000 bubble.
    Galvanize will remain on the target until one of 3 things happens.
    1. 30 seconds time has passed
    2. the total number of health points generated by the shield has been absorbed.
    3. A larger Glavanize is cast replacing the original bubble and resetting the count down to 30.

    Patched to work at Eccho said. I've noticed it too. If my aldo isn't stronger than the first one it doesn't get refreshed. I might be a bit crazy but I thought mine were hitting for 700 pre patch and now only hit for 600 after.

    Also, they went with the design of changing the name to Galvanize. . . It would have been a PERFECT opportunity to separate Aldo and Succor so you could have both up but nope.
