War Rune: Velium Cipher

[daray]

Any chance on having this proc displayed additionally in the maintained window (as all the previous procs in this line were)? Thanks!

<p>Yeah, a lot of those procs should go to maintained. It's impossible to see active procs in the spell effects window.</p><p>They did do it for Glacial Deflection.</p>

<p>They also need to fix the limit, or filter illusions and other self buffs so they dont count to the icon display limit.</p>

Velium Cipher also doesn't write anything to the log files when it procs (only on termination), so ACT-based triggers are out of the question. These types of procs should always be visible in the maintained window.</p>

<p>What we really need is two windows.  Long term buffs and short term buffs.  Anything less than 60 seconds goes to short, everything else goes to long.</p><p>Adding flavor text to all these procs would help us track them too.</p>

[Kunaak]

<p>if anything, they should just allow you to adjust the amount of buffs show.</p><p>something like right click on it, select "buffs show - 30" or something like that.</p>

<p>Honestly I think the maintained window needs a little love from SOE, as a swash mine is constantly over full and its impossible to find the things you need.  I'd love a way to filter it so certain buffs don't show up, or certain buffs have priority and will always sort to the top.</p>

[Eyema]

<p>im not on my toon atm, but there are some other runes that would benefit from a change like this too. Sub will and Bane of Kromzek i beleive already show up in Maintained, but like others have pointed out, the window is usually full of junk buffs and they get lost, also with Velium Cipher, Rime Strike and Storm Essence do not show up in maintained, these would be hugely helpful if they could.</p>
