Ability Bar Timers are removed by casting skill that grants the same named buff or debuff

With Ability Bar Timers active, casting a skill that grants a named buff (such as Major Sorcery) or applies a named debuff to an enemy will remove the timer for other skills that grant the same buff or debuff. For example, alternating Degeneration and Blue Betty will remove the timer for Blue Betty when you cast Degeneration, and vice-versa; casting Deep Fissure will remove the timer for Elemental Susceptibility.

This problem also extends to drinking potions; for example, consuming a potion that grants Major Sorcery will remove the timer for Critical Surge.

The skills remain active and continue to affect the player and enemies, this is purely a cosmetic issue with the displayed Ability Bar Timers.

    Yes, it is very annoying. Really wish they would improve the timers.

    Stay safe :)

    This is still happening as OP described.

    For me it happens for crit surge on sorc when I receive major sorcery from someone else or drink a position.
    Note this does not happen with power surge morph, so there may be some morph based details to it.

    Also happens with boundless storms when I receive major resolve from someone else.

    While this is visual sure, wouldn't write it off as just "cosmetic" because it causes confusion on uptimes and re-casting more than necessary.

    This is happening to Necros ability “Bone Armor” if you also use “Resolving Vigor” now that Bone Armor gives minor resolve. Extremely annoying for pvp because keeping you major and minor resolve up is extremely important.
