Bots not buffing

In ooc, someone mentioned that shaman bots are broken and not buffing so I summoned mine and it worked fine. However, when we wiped on Sleeper tonight, I camped out (and I assume the bot did too) and when I summoned my bot he would not conviction us (presumably because he still had conviction). I would think though that if the bot saw Party_Member_A wihtout conviction, he should cast it on them, but never did.
I think this is leading to some confusion as there is currently no way for us to "kill" a bot short of letting him die in battle. Thus, perhaps a look into the way bots detect buffs on others may be in order?

This was something that was supposed to be fixed asap. Unfortunately, due to some issues not related, I fell behind a bit. I may add a #bot nukebuffs or something temporarily. Or just a way to kill bot heh.

Just curious striat which one of these this bug falls into:
Fixed issue with bots not casting certain buffs[*]More bot fixes to come!
Not sure if you want feedback yet on it. It has been reported in ooc that shaman bots are still not buffing if they have existing buffs.

Yeah, I am aware of the shaman buffage. Temporary solution may be to remove persistent buffs since they are not working correctly atm. I'd like to look at both and fix the issue at hand time permitting though.
The included fix was just with certain classes not casting certain buffs at all due to how they were flagged.
