Multiple STACKING buffs!

[1221344]

I'm not sure what caused this, perhaps it was different specced buffers (I'm a ret pally and the other pally who gave me kings was holy) but they DO indeed stack. I also noticed this in Ulduar earlier. I was running around Alterac Valley with 33K hp in my PVP gear

Enjoy!

Now to figure out how, and proof of stacking (SS of character stats with single then cloned buffs), then I'll rep.

EDIT: I'm not the OP, so I'll take a shot at a theory. I noticed that kings and divine spirit was cloned. Prior to 3.1, those spells had different strengths depending on how many talent points you put into it, but after that, there was a single strength. There is also proof that sometimes between patches when a talent is removed from the talent tree, the effect of the talent remains (A good example was a paladin's bonus 3% ghost hit from precision in the ret tree from BC. It got fixed in a later patch in WotLK and was acknowledged by blue posts)

SOOOOOOOO.... here my scoop. You had two paladins. One had a full 10% kings prior to 3.1 and the other had maybe a 2% kings because he was a nub. The patch comes and all instances of the kings spell increases to 10% but the spell ID's remain the same, so you have a 10% kings, and another 10% kings under a different spell ID. Since they are different ID's and one isn't a lesser strength than the other, they both appear and stack. The same concept goes towards divine spirit and any other pre-3.1 buff that was learned through talents and had incremental strengths but became a base ability in 3.1.

Again, until the OP can nail down how to duplicate it exactly, this is just my take on it trying to figure out what happened. I can't really check on this since I had 5/5 kings talent prior to 3.1.

Are you sure it wasent the battlemasters 2min shout in Av that gave you the 33k hp?

I had Blessing of Kings "stacked" yesterday while in OS, however, it seems to be client-side only and doesn't actually give you twice the buff.

Lol that's just to bad

Possible, but un-buffed with my pvp gear on I only have ~21k hp

Same happened to me in Ulduar.

[keksbirne]

Definitely client sided, doesn't give you twice the buff.

i this this was taken after the patch 3.1 just came out... and now 16 hours ago no offence.. when it first came out i could use all 6 auras at once and have ultiple of the same and i was also invicible from all attacks for 20min befre it was fixed so.. yea this was fixed shorty after 3.1 came out an shortly i mean by the next day. Also, before it was fixed in 3.1 when ti JUST came out it did give you the buffs =] what you have is 99% prolly just a grapgic glitch, like when everyone appears naked in bg's but you click inspect and they have everything on.

they took care of this previous patch as other people have beaten me to : )

[someonedying]

ive had two kings before, just doing wg / os / or maly....


doesnt stack tho, if u right click one, ur stats still should stay the same, only way to truly see if it was stacked or not..
