this would be due to having to much buffs on.. is the only reason it ever happened to me lol

you don't lose sigh/mount pots/guild castle buffs

but Housekeepers/zodiacs and lots of other stuff still disapear if you go over the limit wich is at 40 buffs if i remember right .. (someone else might be able to correct me if i'm wrong)

we've lost mount speed pots plenty of times before, I keep losing housekeeper in grotto :/

IS items don't disappear anymore when you reach the buff cap since certain patch. But there's a bug that makes big angel sigh have a shorter duration but no idea what causes it. This happened me twice

To prevent the loss of zodiac pet/housekeeper buffs I suggest avoid useless/unnecessary buffs such as guild towers buffs, exp/tp/drop buffs, fire ward, patt buffs, mdef buff

If you also really look into, you will see that you are not getting some of the party burst buffs that would really help, since you are hitting the 40 buff limit. Things like Soldiers Attack!, lutes, guitars, and the like. There is an(yet another) addon out there that will automatically remove buffs that are not desired, such as the p/s matt buff for a wd/w. http://www.curse.com/addons/rom/asbw
It is in german, so if you are an ignorant american like me, then good luck and just play with it until you figure it out.

I have the english language file for ASBW

uploaded the en lang file that was translated for anyone interested here:
just completely replace the one named "de" in the lang folder ^_^

Yeah... Stupid buff cup, that is in-game from time they have make more buffs visible at once (without addon). Actually Buff cup is about 50 and sums up beneficial effects and debuffs. Some buffs actually have 1 icon, but are 2 buffs (ex. grace of life, amplified attack, savage blessing...). To the list you have to add any passive set skill. Buffs are disappearing from oldest to newest and the main reason for them to disappear are druids with 10000 of regens on one target.

When IS buffs where also counting to the list I could write new support ticket 3x/day, to give me back my mount speed potion and sigh... Some times they have even give it back to me, so I have loose only 5 of each till I stopped using them (just wondering how much real money they have loose since then).

has anybody thought about how this may be a conscious decision by RW to limit buff stacking, making players choose what buffs are most important, etc?

IMO, if they stopped IS buffs from getting knocked off, there isn't really a problem...
