Buff NPC

[Manifus]

Also I don't support the idea of having a Buff NPC. Buffs are something priests excel in and are proud of after all (at least I am x3). Of course it's extremely annoying when some people talk to you like to NPC indeed.. "I want a buff" and "buff plz" - but those I ignore completely and thankfully, they won't usually ask for a second time. So if it's that hard to write please, no buffs from me. Maybe that's cruel from some point of view but even priests can be busy sometimes, and I really don't want to encourage people to think of priests as some walking around buffers, solely existing for the sake of other players. Not saying they can't do that, but I won't, even if it meant more disrespect for me solely.

I know, Im an agi class, priests don't like agi classes. =(

And that's most definitely not true. I'd play with anyone, regardless of class (assuming the person is not a jerk). While the possible reason I could think of would only be that it might be hard to get used to slightly different playing style but that kinda goes for both parties involved. On top of that, it doesn't really require much patience to get used to it anyway.

First of all. Saying Priests Excel as a buff class and then saying that people shouldn't think of them as a walking buff machines is contradicting! D: Sure they can heal too, but come on!~
(Clearly joking, don't hate me.)

^- What I meant by that is that agi classes generally kill stuff slower/less efficient, than nuke classes / hunter classes. Not to mention priests can pretty much solo faster then they can party unless it is a really awesome group/dungeon.

Thirdly! If you think your class could be replaced by an npc.

The buff NPC wasn't worth it. It has 5 minutes buffs and you loose time going to your hunting place. It was more of a: buff, kill 1-2 minutes, BWing, re-buff...

It was worth it for those using it. Else it would have gone unused. From what I remember it was only 3,500 zeny anyways. Anyways, yeah, it wasn't by any means the downfall of the priest class.

So now that people are done avoiding the question - what did happen to it? I know it was taken out an all, just curious as to when and why? Any official statements of some sort? ;o
