    Cancel buff macro

    Why is this not a thing yet? AST need this since trying to cancell a bad card in the mid of a big pull or an intensive damage phase can be quite dangerous. And gamepad players have it even worse.

    Same for blood for blood in case you pop it at the wrong moment or just get into bad RNG...

    We understand that it can be difficult to remove buffs when playing on a gamepad, so we're currently looking into implementing a text command that can be used to remove specific buffs.

    Oh, Thank the Twelve!
    When we get that button, I'm going to pound the ever living snot out of it as a tank. (To remove those annoying pre-pull Regens)

    "Wait you play on gamepad? You should have a cancel blood for blood macro."

    I can see that happening but still, this will be a nice addition for gamepad players.

    Not all skills can be cancelled that way I think.

    I think only with timers can always be removed.

    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let us cancel cleric stance with this potential macro. Yes I know you currently can't cancel it. But currently cleric stance is simply bad design. Any good healer operating correctly is able to DPS when they want and heal when they want. The problems arise when are tired or lag/rotation lag crops up and the stance shut off fails to register... which is just not fun. Its not interesting gameplay, its just stupid. Thank you for considering my request!

    I doubt this macro will make possible removing persistent buffs.
    Uh no, please no. If any good healer can heal with the 5 seconds delay on Cleric Stance dance why remove it? The delay is there for a reason, wich is to to punish players that activated it on the wrong moment just Like Gauss and Minuet have a 15 seconds delay on it.
