Enchanter Empower and GoE overwriting issue

I'm not sure how eager Cyzaine would be to muck with the buff stacking code. (Or how much we'd want to let him <.<)

As for making GoE and Emp bounce like SSS and SV or WoN and Focus, I could try, but the last time I tried the trick (with druid and mage relic DS's) it didn't work, and I don't know why. So, it may or may not be a workable solution, I don't know.

What if you were to switch the lvl of the spells? Making GoE lvl 64 and Empower lvl 65? that would fix the overwrite right? I'm kinda annoyed with having to wait for the tanks to click empower cuz they aren't listening in vent or looking at the screen, it holds me up to cast other buffs because you don't cast SW in the middle of all the major buffs. And then the raid gets pissy and impatient with me because i have to sit and med after waiting to cast empower. It would help the buffing process go alot faster in my case and help us engage mobs faster. They aren't relic spells so I don't see why you wouldn't swap the lvls.
 
The stacking code is scary and intimidating. I tried untangling it, and it beat me up and took my lunch money. I ran back home but that was a mistake, and now it knows where I live. Every night I look out the window, and I see it. Not doing anything, but staring. But I just know they are waiting. Waiting for me to drop my guard. Waiting for me to show a sign of weakness, or forget to lock the door, or to go out by myself at night. There is no rest. There is no mercy. Only the SoD spell stacking code. Oh, and Packetloss.

that was some funny shit =)

Well, if someday, u put ur guard back up, and face your enemy, while u in the battle, please fix Mage DS druid DS too... i buffed my group one day with SB Mage DS with Duration Increment 7, and a fucking tard druid just casted his crap relic DS on my grp, and fucked my day. Its just annoying, cuz Druid DS doesnt last much.
 
Levels don't matter. PotG is a level 60 druid spell, but Relic WoN won't override it. The mage/druid DS thing is almost as annoying as the GoE/Emp thing. :p
 
I think this idea has been brought up many times, but nothing has happened.

If GoE/Emp were made to stack like WoN/Focus, the problem would be solved.

Shit like SLTW overwriting emp is a pita when you get in a pick up group with a shaman.

i support this idea

In fact is it possible to make any SB buff never be overwritten?

i support this idea
 
Then click off the SB buff you have when you are getting another one, just like you do now when refreshing a SB buff. If no SB buffs are overwritten, then you do not get a buff like SB emp annoyingly overwritten but GoE, but if you INTEND to overwrite a buff, you can make the decision to get rid of the old one.
 
If you tackle this (and I am not holding my breath) could you make FoE and DMF not overwrite mage air elemental illusion please.
 
In the mean time.. make sure you tell your tanks in advance they have 10 seconds to click for emp or else they stuck with GoE make sure they pay attnetion. =P
