I was playing around in the frog cave in PoS tonight and was having issues with my Mana Flare dropping. With my mages AA it should last about 7 1/2 mins, but most cases it would drop within the first minute. I have had issues with this in the past, but it has been quite some time.

I just had my mage in the cave with a cleric bot. There was another character in the group but they were not in the cave with me. I was just running with Sunes buffs, and my self buffs for the pet. Any suggestions about what may have been causing this would be great.
