PvP Strat #004

[vbcypher]

This one is simple and short...

Cancel Magic and related spells remove the top [x] number of spells you have. So if you have your four best buffs as the first four buffs in your effects window, they are going to be the ones to go.

I always make sure to buff myself up with five or six "fakey" buffs before I get my "good" buffs that I want to keep. Then with my KEI and Virtue as my sixth and seventh buffs in line, I don't have to worry about being debuffed of my good stuff.

Do the same if you ever plan to PvP...hell do it anyways becuase eventually mobs will start debuffing you and you'll get pissed when you lose your KEI to a blue mob.

Good advice, when you say first, you mean the first buffs casted right? So, the ones at the top...or beginning of your buffs will be the first to go?

Also, I thought I heard you mention you had clickies...can you list your insta-clicky crap buff items that you use for pvp?

Generally only two buffs will be removed at most on any single cast of the remove magic line. Only if they are using the old clicky staff from old cazic-thule can they remove up to three.

If you junk buff your slef with clickies first ( first 2 ) then a junk buff or two after, then your good buffs, you wont have to worry about ever being debuffed for the most part. This is of course in the hopes you dont have more then one person debuffing you.

The above works in pvp and dragons like the ones found in WW that have a habit of debuffing you while they are doing their AE's.

Yes, thats what it means. So if you cast oh say Minor Shielding, Banshee Aura, Grim Aura, Endure Cold, etc., then have KEI, Virtue, and other useful buffs, then MS, BA,GA, EC, and any other crap buffs will be removed before KEI, Virtue, etc.
