I play on Test Server, and about clerics not being able to cast buffs, I don't think that's true. I had a cleric cast a Center and Spirit armor on me just last night and I wasn't grouped with her.

We have noticed buffs not lasting as long and have complained to the high heavens about that. I just got FD, so I'm still working with it.

Well, one person has seen the effects since the last patch. Please speak up and give stories if your having a tough time with it.

I am just very curious if Verant made a change in the ability to FD without stating it. I bet they would call this an "ENHANCEMENT" wouldn't they.

Oh, and the durations of Buff spells really really dissapoints me. I thought they were good as is before the patch. Have to rebuff after ever other fight. Very annoying to the casters in my group.

And one rumor I heard..is that Clerics can not cast buffs on ya unless you are grouped with them. Can anyone confirm this?
