Runes of Magic US / AU

So as I said in another thread, I would upload my list that I've come up with of all the variable buffs used on average in a normal raid for M/W's. If I have missed any, feel free to add below.

This list I have come up with shows that, with the current buff limit of 40, it is not enough for a M/W, and therefore must make sacrifices on certain buffs.

This is not necessarily a complaint thread, merely an awareness thread to all M/W's who may or may not know of all the buffs you can use to bring out your full potential and to show you that you should be careful in what you buff with, so that you make sure you dont overbuff and knock off important ones that have timers or limits (i.e. housekeeper buffs)

So let's discuss, if there is anything to discuss, and here is my list, broken down in (my own personal) sections as I deemed them fit:

**please note that all buffs listed DO stack with one another**

regular variable self buffs

1.)hero pot
2.)ham sandwich / sesame bread
3.)unbridled (nonessential)
4.)lucky target (nonessential)
5.)scarlet love (nonessential)
6.)energy influx
7.)elemental explosion
8.)legendary pet
9.)adult pet
10.)chocolate cake / pdef food
11.)everlasting love spiced juice
12.)specialty cuisine delicacy
13.)vanilla strawberry dessert
14.)rhino blood (nonessential)
15.)secret ritual manual
16.)housekeeper mattk buff #1
17.)housekeeper mattk buff #2
18.)guild mattk buff
19.)blessing of the flower goddess (nonessential)
20.)electrostatic charge (nonessential)



constant self burn buffs

21.)tranquility Powder
22.)unharmed
23.)moti blended sausage
24.)ancient spirit water
25.)arcane potion / extinguish potion (one or the other, they do not stack)
26.)activate mana
27.)berserk
28.)rage mana
29.)wisdom and bravery
30.)intensification
31.)elemental catalysis

32.)tambo (damage)
33.)guitar (attack speed)
34.)morale boost (wd/s mdam buff)
35.)fire training (attack speed)
36.)soldiers attack (attack speed & mattk)
37.)surge of awareness (warlock mattk buff)


variable controlled desired buffs

38.)sublimation weave curse
39.)mysterious grace
40.)essence of magic
41.)embrace of the water spirit
42.)shadow fury
43.)snowpearl flower buff
44.)dreamland amulet buff
45.)donichuka int buff



variable uncontrolled buffs

46.)mental surge (pet int)
47.)blessed magic (pet mattk)
48.)meditative current
49.)meditation path


**add to count consideration for healer HoT's**

You can most certainly do without those buffs. I should have been more clear.

The buffs I listed were just every possible buff I could think of that one would normally use in a raid. As RTP points out, I missed a couple from other classes.

My point is, as Borella pointed out as well, is that while although those listed buffs are nonessential for maximizing overall power and dps, the point still stands that we must sacrifice said buffs in order to make room for the buffs we need BECAUSE there's a limit.


Lastly, when I said "getting your full potential" I should have been more clear in stating that regardless of if we can use all these buffs, for those who are new to M/W or are unaware of every possible buff we can use, I made this list so we can all see nice and neatly laid out which buffs we can use, stack, and maximize potential with.


Thanks everyone so far for the pointers
