Thread: Is this Battle Regimen working?

Maintains the effectiveness of class abilities when used by different classes
Magic spell⇒Magic spell
(both from same class)
Weaponskill⇒Weaponskill
(both from same class)

I've tried this with 2 different conjurer spells and with 2 of the same conjurer spells but the log doesn't give any indication that the intended effect is applied. It doesn't give the regimen a name. Anyone know if it's broken or if there's something I'm missing?

It seems to work from time to time. The problem is that there aren't enough effective cues about the Battle Regimen, and that it is not very streamlined.

However, I feel the Battle Regimen system should remain in place to an extent - just improve the stacking and execution system.

As well as add the obvious.... animation cues and effects when a successful,or heck even unsuccessful, Regimen is used^^

Check if the regimen shows up as a buff on the character rather than a debuff on the monster. Some regimens work that way and it's not indicated in the chat log.

You guys are killin' me. If I hadn't thoroughly tested this regimen I wouldn't have wasted anyone's time asking about it. There is no debuff or buff, or actually, no graphical indication of any kind.

Even if there were no graphical effects, I once did 1,690 points of damage on Kokoroon Quickfingers in a battle regimen.

Only the debuff regimens give an indication that they worked in the log, and by showing the debuff icon on the mob.

The damage boost regimens just boost your damage. The larger your stack of skills, the greater the dmg boost to each successive skill. All you have to go by is the raw numbers. There is no notification like. "20% dmg boost!" or something like that in the chat log.

If you see your skill is doing more damage than it normally does, then it's working.

I don't think its a buff exactly...
Here is how I think it works:

My gladiator is R50... so is my Lancer

If I want my Gladiator to use "Twisting Vice", an R42 Lancer weaponskill, then it will be less effective
But....
If I use "Twisting Vice" in a battle regimen and put it directly after someone else's Lancer weaponskill, then my "Twisting Vice" maintains the class affinity as if I was a lancer and therefore does full damage

It's similar to stacking different class weaponskills to increase damage... its not a buff, per se.... it just increases the damage of consecutive skills

Sorry for trying to help.

Btw, the buff lasts for about a quarter of a second so maybe you just didnt see it.

It works, BUT it changes the BR type from WS buff to Cross-Class, so every WS after the Gladiator's Twisting Vice wont be buffed, or will be considerably less buffed. The best tactic is that if someone has to perform a skill that's not of his current class then he should be the one closing the BR
