Too many short duration spells

[apan]

I feel like too many of our spells and abilities have this 3 minutes timer, and I think it's getting worse. First I got Offering of Armament. Then it was Divine Inspiration. And now it's Blessing of the Pentient. Come on, they can at meast make the HP buff last longer than 3 minutes, wouldn't you agree?

I somwhat agree. I'd like to see an increased timer on some of our buffs, at least blessing. Even 15 mins would be a nice improvement, 3 minutes is just too hard to keep track of, especially with the stupid little recast timer once the buff wears off, if you don't refresh it before it does.I don't use any other short duration spells except divine inspiration, but that's okay to cast before every battle, it has a short cast time and can be cast while moving. Having to do both it and blessing, though, is just a pain.

<DIV>I agree, I remember in other games when I used to think 12 minutes, are you kidding me, that's as long as it lasts?  Now I'd be like, 12 minutes?  Whooo hooo.  Unfortunately, unless it takes precious concentration, there's not a single buff I can think of that lasts longer than 3 minutes.  Sorta a pain IMO how it takes up your power bar before you pull.  Yeah I know, it's not much, but that little extra might make the difference at the end between one more heal or one more taunt.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Off topic a bit, but I'm not loving how you only have 5 conc bubbles either.  Maybe I could live with it a little better if each buff took one conc bubble period.</DIV>

<DIV>remember some spells like the group buff that pulls some hate off other group members is probably ment to be used for its hate pulling effect and the buff is just a nice side effect. I know blessing of the penitent i use all the time so i get the reagent for the self heal</DIV>
