Clan hall and Fortress managers without MP

General Discussion Started Last reply 4 posts
Why happens this? They have about 150k MP and after few seconds they have 200 MP and they dont have MP for buffs. Happens to CH and also fortress managers, their MP regen is slow when they have low MP.

i noticed that too yesterday; i wanted to buff up at fort and suddenly fort managers was 'out of mp' aka had less then 100 mp.
i waited a few secs and he had 75k mp again, after next buff 100k mp and then 150k mp .... really weird :confused:

PS: it actually never happened to me before that ch or fort manager ran out of mp from buffing :eek:
My current theory runs as follows: The NPC server is trying to optimise the load, and "phasing out" / "despawning" NPCs and mobs when no player character is around. This isn't generally a problem, but the server also "forgets" the MP of the buff slaves like fortress and CH managers.

This isn't a problem with the CH managers in towns and Gludin - there is almost always a player nearby, and they don't get despawned. Some forts which are near often frequented areas (Bayou fortress comes to mind, which sits above the deep end of Silent Valley, or Southern, which is near one of the entrances as well as the SoE/Return/PR point of Hellbound) also don't suffer much from it. Other clan halls and forts do, however.
i've gotten this quite frequently in a place like giran/rune/goddard... so that rules that out..

it's weird.. it's like the npc system has a hiccup and forgets to replenish the mp
