Stand Firm

[LumpyD]

<DIV>OK, I have been trying REALLY hard to keep this on the MT at all times to see if it makes any difference. With no numbers, it's hard to say it is.. BUT, last night, for the SECOND time ever, I got a parry skill increase while attacking the mob from behind while using Stand Firm on the MT.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>By God I think it just might be doing something.. something unseen.. but something!</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>PLEASE my fellow zerkers, use Stand Firm tonight on the MT, let us see if we can figure out if this stupid skill works! </DIV>

<DIV>Not really on the same topic as yours but...I jsut hit 30 otehre day and got the Weapon Shield Buff.....pretty nice..BUt uses 3 conc and has 2.5 min duration....</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Soldiers stance (or any stance I assume) you cannot use with this...due to conc issues.... I am unsure if this  duration based buff is suppose to require conc pool.....seems wierd... Conc + short duration? It better be REALLY good...</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>On that note..i do not think our defensive skills increase defenses much....Really finding them to be worthless at least up til 30... no noticeable avoidance or mitigation for me...maybe my poor observation because I have not been logging things yet.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Meh have not used stand firm as of yet, I thought this was a group intervene thing and as you posted in an earlier post...Intervene hurts;p</DIV>

<DIV>Yes, I tried posting that earlier as a bug, but the forums were broken.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>No 3-minute buffs use conc</DIV> <DIV>No conc-based buffs have a short duration</DIV> <DIV>Weapon Shield is a 3 minute buff with 3! conc used!! WHOA</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>
