The Game Needs a Rework on the Buff System

[JinParagon]

Okay, I feel like people watching The Omega Protocol (Ultimate), has been hearing many streamers discuss something that is currently on everyone's minds Buffs and Debuffs. The game has a well known cap of 30 buffs and Debuffs, which include the ones from your Free Company, Squadron, Food, Pots, enemies and from players.

This is leading to people discuss the issue of "meta" compositions for parties to avoid the 30 buff cap, since if you can't use a raid buff, you are worse than a class who is tuned to function without. Well at least this is what some teams have been viewing the issue as

Omega currently gives out 3-6 buffs at random to player, that combined with the high damage from Omega requiring players to prepare damage reduction, healing augmentation, and shield skills, all the while players begin using their 2 minute abilities such as battle litany, battle voice, and radiant finale.

I understand the buff cap was probably implemented as a server side, load reduction, but, when it creates an unhealthy discussion that teams might avoid a Monk Dancer combo, it should be looked into, if things such as Mechanical Debuffs, such as the one from Hello world, FC buff, Squadron buffs, if all these can be moved into some sort of seperate category, to enable player being able to use more buffs

I would like to start a discussion about the situation with world first race in The Omega Protocal. I do hope something is address to make most team compositions (2T2H2M1R1C) to be acceptable.

The weird font is disturbing.

It's fine for most content, they probably just need to rethink how they do things for the content it causes problems in.

It's something that, if it hasn't reached their attention.
It has to now, as Ultimate tends to be one of the things to is broadcast above all else when it's released.

I don't really say it as a cause we need all the buffs and debuffs.[we have multiple threads about it from various users. so those threads explain it all well]
It restricts the classes even more so than many would say now.[atm don't have a full opinion on how classes play. but]
if many are conversing and complaining about it, then word would reach prospective players, and potentially affect the classes even more in the future.[thus more samey, and less unique. Fun is subjective, but an entertaining/Good-Great Combat system is more objective leaning]
Let alone the reduction of dots, which have their own thing but similar situations.

Hope their 10 more years is held with Reasonable upgrade thoughts, just as they do with the Graphics[despite we don't know the full extent yet, despite what they've told]

A tip is you can world visit to another world so that FC buffs disappear.

No that's how mandragora talks

Does this mean I can finally use comic sans and nobody will bat an eye?
