Parsing with Buffs that Don't Wear Off

[Denizen]

I feel it would be useful to players if there were the same parsing dummies that are found in Guild Halls located also in a zone where buffs wear off.

If you have a great buff, like a donor clicky of some type, they wonderfully do not wear off in Guild Halls. But when parsing, I find this not so great as I like sequences of clickies to parallel what happens in real long term fights, buffs wear off and then new clickies must be used etc.

So why not have a zone where we can test these things? I suggest an "LDon type Instance" where you can zone in and just find the parsing dummies...keeps them from being occupied by others but this is a developer convenience issue...whatever works.

I realize that developers are very busy just now...but maybe this might be added to a "To Doi" list somewhere.

Now I am, admittedly not the parsing expert that some of the players are. I don't think a separate parser, like GamParse, is an equally viable solution since to use a separate parser at least one of your characters needs all filters turned off and this can add a great deal of overhead to one's connection with the server.

Maybe some folks find other ways around this. Please chime in if that is you.

Thanks for the suggestion Rafe. I bookmarked the topic and will look into it!

There are parsing dummies in the Arena you should be able to use. I've used them before to test things where I've needed the buffs to wear off.
