Revive higher than level 1

[Sky../]

Has anyone tried it? If so, does the hidden buff also go up?

[Ellyidol]

Hidden buff?

[Echelong]

Hidden buff?

yeah I thought the same. please explain.

deja vu from my newb first days on PL...If there is then I am a very bad bad mage for not knowing anything of this.

[Ellyidol]

I didn't know, but it could be possible since I see some mages cast revive along with their buffs before a duel in PvP.

I need to test that...

*hides from boss* well maybe later.

[Moogerfooger]

I've heard various things like Revive can buff crit or hit or something to that effect, although I can't remember exactly what it supposedly can buff.

I know lvl 1 doesn't buff anything when I tested it.

[Echelong]

I would love if Physio had a mage to test this...Where is Royce anyway? or Pharcyde for that matter...

Don't want to waste 4 plat if someone knows this.

[noobmigo]

It's regen.
Herwolf has tested it before, I think that's what he said.

[Sky../]

Level 1 buffs me 1ms and 1 armor on pve.

I haven't tested the duraion, but the person who told me about the buff said it's 1 minute.

Cool thanks....I will check that out later.

[FluffNStuff]

Revive 'buffs' you m/s, and that increases at higher levels. This is how the skill 'cost less mana'. As to whether at some point the m/s increase becomes higher then the skill cost, or if it does, enough to lose stat points from other skills I do not know. Would be interesting to test.

[Echelong]

Well I will have to test it out but IMO even if it increases 1m/s and 1 armor per level its not worth the 6 points at least for pve.

Even if it's a party buff? I think it's worth the extra ice skill points

If the buff is 1 minute long, it will stack.
I think level 1 rev gives 1 m/s, lvl 2 might give 2 m/s.
And stacking= 2 m/s, or 4 m/s etc.

If it was party buff, it would really help the birds.

Yep if it was a party buff it would be good I will test this when I get home tonight. If its a party buff I will have to re-think how to distribute skills.

[Arterra]

hmmmmm not going top max it lol, but interesting...

[Adapts]

Lol why do you think i always cast rev before big groups, +1 m/s +1 armor for 1 min.

Not like game changing, but every bithelps

The question is if 2 points means 2 m/s and 2 armor for 1 min for the group. and if so 6 would mean 6. m/s and armor.

There you go. The source. I got the info from pandamoni, who got it from adapts.

[Adapts]

Well, for the good of the mage community here i spend the 2 plat and tested it

6 Ressurect: mana cost 10, still only +1 m/s +1 armor and 1 minimum damage, 1 max damage, 1 dps for 1 min.

Again, the hidden buff DOESNT raise with added skill points

It is party wide, whoever is in range.

And i can't take credit for it, i found out from Chanty :)

You can thank me all in game with runs for braced or wand, thank you

EDIT: Dunno about stacking, since none of you are on but i highly doubt it. Easy to test that later

[Beez]

Hmm never realized there might be a hidden buff. Might need to try this one out tonight

[Adapts]

Lol well it was a secret not many people knew

It was great to have people think im Noob casting rev before fights, 'what the heck he casting rev for'? 'NUB'

[Echelong]

Lol... We'll hunt the bracer and wand tonight. We can also check for the stacking and thanks for testing. Although you didn't spend 2 plat it was 4 you didn't count 2 plat to respec back lol.

[Pharcyde]

I would be willing to test it, if I hadn't already spent over 50 platinum in making my guide and testing various things, plats getting tight now.

Adapts test it and it is only 1m/s and 1 armor and doesn't go up with level.
Thanks I liked your new guide.

[Pharcyde]

Adapts test it and it is only 1m/s and 1 armor and doesn't go up with level.

Just added to my guide, the dps, 1 damage doesn't add?

[Echelong]

Adapts only saw 1m/s and 1 armor even on level 6 we are gonna test tonight if its a group buff.

[Ladylove]

I only keep rev at 1, but there is a buff of the 1 m/s and 1 armor. I always use it when I buff up in pvp and pve.

[Adapts]

It's +1 m/s, +1 armor, +1 minimum damage, +1 maximum damage, +1 DPS regardless if its Ressurect 1 or 6

Thats the extent of the hidden ressurect buff.

Ya and also not to mention re-mapping my spells... note to self, remember where i had things before respec :)

[Plasticuproject]

Hmmm...Learn something new everyday...

[Pharcyde]

Seriously, I have been studying Enchantress and teaching players for several months now, never new about the buff.

So is it a party buff or self buff? Does it stack?

I don't think it stacks, but it might be a party buff. Just go in town, rev, and watch peoples' stats? Try the same in pvp and pve?

[Tengotengo]

huh. With ms being as huge as it is in endgame, it doesn't make sense not to use this.

[KingFu]

Level 1 buffs me 1ms and 1 armor on pve.

I haven't tested the duraion, but the person who told me about the buff said it's 1 minute.

Rev actually buffs 1 ms, 1/1.5 armor, and 2 damage. I'd the ranking of rev but I have no plat. All I can confirm is it gives a faster cooldown

Edit:

Yes, it's a party buff, and no it doesn't stack

[Hullukko]

Huh. There's gonna be a lot of that soon.

(and more rendering lag for those complaining about it already, since it's also quite intense from a graphics and animation point of view and likely to be cast right before action in pve with all the other buffs)

[lilbyrdie]

Interesting. So, it's hidden in that no icon shows up, right? That's pretty powerful as a party buff...

I assume it buffs even if a revive does take place. It's conceivable, though, that the buff is a "dude, you hit that by accident... here's something so people don't complain about wasted spell points from mis-taps on tiny screens..."

I know I'll be casting it now...

[Peterlawl]

Revive always boosts me up 1 DPS, 1ms, and 1 armor.
It's a party boost, and when you say "stacks" do you mean that it stacks up with other buffs?
Because when I do my normal buff sequence: "BOV, BOM, and Magic shield", the revive buff usually stacks up and adds another 1 DPS?

He means after revive is used once, can you use it again and get the same effect X2. If you could stack it, that'd mean you'd be able to use it, and get 1 damage, 1 ms, and 1/1.5 armor, and then use it again, and get another 1 damage, 1 ms, and 1/1.5 armor buff and they both add together. But no, rev does not stack.

Also, I believe it has slightly more than 1 armor buff because in some instances I can notice it. I'll do a bit of testing though.

[Arterra]

well i put it to lv2, no change in m/s or armor. didnt check damage, but meh. if i wanted armor i would go for mana shield lol

Increasing skill rank just makes cool down shorter.

Which seems pretty pointless if it doesn't stack.

Not if you have a horrible party that dies every .5 seconds:D

Haha, good point!

But still, I would rather use my points on damage dealing skills or burrf/debuffs.
