I have a friend who plays retail. Her character is a Rogue like mine. This came up as we were comparing playing retail as opposed to a private server.
She told me that when she uses poisons to coat her daggers, the buff lasts 1 hour of GAME time. meaning if she loggs out with a 1/2 hour remaining on her buff, when she loggs back in she will still have a 1/2 hour remaining on the buff, no matter how long she is logged out.
I noticed that on the Shack, when I do the poisoned weapons buff, it lasts an hour of REAL time. meaning that if i logg out with a 1/2 hour remaining, time is still counting down, and, when I logg back in say 2 hours or more later, the buff has worn off.
I was just wondering if anyone else has noticed this?
It might not be a bug at all just a "feature" of Mangos.
My observation is that you are correct. This can be a benefit as well, as i'd rather not wait 24 hours of playing time to do another transmute, or wait out some curse thats been thrown on me ingame. Mangos may not have it all correct, but they could have it be a lot more "wrong"
I wasn't complaining about it. I was just asking if my observation was accurate. Most of the time, I just make sure I'm going to be in-game for more than the alloted buff time, before I will use the buff. Sometimes, I don't care tho & will use the buff if I need it in an emergency, Like when I'm close to leveling up & I need the extra juice to get there in the quickest amount of time.
No apology needed. Sometimes I think some people that play on the server expect perfection as if they were playing retail. I just want you to know, I'm not one of those people.
