Was wondering if the cooldown on Mass Buff AA could be removed or drastically reduced to like 1 minute or something. Really no need to have a 30 min refresh on it, wont make us OP just allow us to group buff little better. Also Would be really cool if Shammy Epic cooldown was more like 5 minutes instead of 15. Would prevent overuse yet make it be able to cast if we die or wipe.

Thanks for the consideration.

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on this board is now dumber for having read it. May God have mercy on your soul.

Yeah, being able to MGB Kraken constantly wouldn't change things at all...

Not that I care if the mgb timer is changed or not, but you can flag specific spells to not be mgb castable if you need to.

Kracken costs too much to "cast constantly." Also i did say shorten mgb dont have to remove the tImer. Maybe 5 minutes is better. Also at mid to top end shammy can buff several groups at once so again dont see how mgb would affect this. 30 min on mgb is a bit silly in the end game when we have several groups each and want to buff fast and go esp after wipes.

Still trying to determine exactly how Kraken "costs too much" to continuously cast.....

Ahhhhh....you said mgb. I dont mgb Kraken. Waste of a cast. I just target a member of each group and single cast. By the time the buff is about to fade I'm full mana again.

If I am gonna MGB anything I do the epic click.

Could just change the SHM epic click to create a spell scroll that can be memorized, then cast as a targetable group buff. Not sure if that's game-breaking.

Wasn't the MGB timer already reduced significantly? I remember being very happy when I noticed it it was down in the 30m range; I don't see any reason to reduce it further.

Maintaining buffs properly can be challenging but also hugely rewarding. Most importantly it provides an opportunity to improve crews through better playing rather than aug/wealth hoarding.
