So, a while back the Infinity branch of the Taxibots ran a badge tour in Croatoa. For those of you who don't know of us or have never been to one of our tours, we use a teleport chain to send players to the markers for each exploration badge in a zone. For the Ensorcelled badge, we station a Taxibot on one of the Tree's many branches (This is the tree that Katie Hannon stands at the base of), and land the fare right onto the badge marker. Due to the lack of space on the tree branch, the placement of both the target and the Taxi must be exact, and there is little room for adjustment. During our tour, we noted that the Wisps floating around the tree gave us a buff, much like Adrenalin Boost of Empathy Defenders and Controllers. However, the buff they give interrupts whatever power that is cycling when it is granted. Of course, this totally crashes our trademark speed.
I realize that this is not something that normally would be brought to public attention and should be reported using the /bug feature. I did in fact do this, and the support team suggested that I post my issue here to see what the community thought. The support team member also said that this would be an issue for Developers to consider, so I threw it in here.
I have not yet tested it, but it seems that PBAoE buffs given by NPCs and objects (in the case of the Green and Blue crystals that act like Regeneration and Recovery Aura in some Circle of Thorns missions) should not interrupt any action, merely be on the side. I personally have run many tours in Croatoa and have not ever noticed this. Was this a new change added with i16?
