Fix/change console ability timers

beer781993

Playing nb at the moment and it's horrible to track merciless resolve. When I switch bars the timer disappears.

It's pretty bad to look at my buff bar because everything is jumping back and forth. My eye can't always catch the position of the icon and merciless resolve runs out....

Degeneration is another case. When it runs out, it shows the remaining time for the major sorcery buff and I sometimes think that the dot is still active. Same with backlash.

Can you fix/change the timers?

Maybe it's just me (since nobody else seems to comment on it in the forums), but the problems you're raising are minor compared to what I've been encountering.

Every time I get hit with any kind of CC ability all of my timers get reset. They also seem to get reset by other random stuff that I haven't identified (maybe casting certain abilities), and the timers for DoTs don't seem to reset when the DoT gets purged. I also pretty regularly have cases where the timer doesn't even start when I cast an ability.

If I had to rate their utility, I would consider them "worse than useless" right now.

Hmm, I didn't encounter what you describe or maybe I did not notice but I hope the devs see this and fix it.

That’s exactly why I don’t turn on all buffs - they don’t stay in the same position on the screen so it’s impossible to keep track of them. If one drops off, the whole group shifts so they mirror out from the center.

I don’t stand a chance of keeping up with all that mess. I just watch the animations on my character and do the best I can.
