There are a few videos that have been published where this abuse was obvious (i.e. having buffs running when the SSS starts allowing them to double dip on those buffs).
    So what if people are "abusing" this and double dipping. It's a single player dps meter and has zero impact on any actual raids. People only hurt themselves by inflating their own numbers as they will be weaker in an actual raid.
    Even if this is a problem or a concern that it could be abused in actual raids, the devs could have all magic/skill based buffs stripped when entering these areas.

    Sigh, I suggest you read what that post was in relation to. In fact, I'm a little confused at your entire post since you essentially rephrased everything I stated in an effort to counter my point? My post was in regards to someone stating that since SSS resets all cooldowns, if the possibility of abuse was present, people would already be abusing it. My post stated that people do in fact abuse the cooldown reset and then I go into stating essentially everything you said in the first half of your post.

    Which is why people (like myself) suggest that you only get CD's reset if you release (so you need to be KO'd and then be removed from the battlefield). This way the only thing you're waiting on is MP.
