How good are they in the BG's and NF?

How good do you compete with those buffs?

The only BG I bothered to check was Molvik, since I happened to have a Molvik-level test toon, and was too lazy to create a new test toon to check each BG.

In Molvik, the Buff guy was better than a naked buffbot, but about 2.5% worse than a buffbot with capped +buff%.

I would guess that the Thid guy is at least that good, since buff potions are already as good as buffbot buffs in thid.

Ok sounds rather fine then.

What about "real" RvR then? It was quite a bit of diffrence there when I last played is that still the case?

When I last tested these bg npc buffs on pendragon a week ago, you could take your thid/molv/whatever toon and get buffs from the nf buffer, then zone into the battlegrounds and the buffs would stay.


Don't know if it'll stay that when when it goes live, though.

Bend her over, try to stick it in her bum and listen to her go “eh eh, eh eh.”

You are correct. The NF buffs on live servers current grant a total of 130 str, 130 con, 130 dex, 80 quick, and 56 int. Mazimised spec buffs will grant a total of 155 str, 155 con, 155 dex, 93 quick, and 93 int. Champion buffs grant 21 int and 59 dex (base+spec); I don't have values for other other buffs at the moment, but it should suffice to say that Champion level buffs are far worse than NPC buffs.
