I was hunting in Lower Guk last night and I did seem to be casting buffs more
often, mostly on myself- on everyone else they were lasting maybe just a little
shorter, but not a huge difference. One thing I know was running out a lot
faster was our Druid's Pack Regeneration. That thing only lasted maybe a
battle. I told him "If it keeps running out, don't waste your mana" so he only
cast it twice.

Pack regen is great for downtime, don't get me wrong, especially when you have a
manastone. But the duration is the key- I could stone to 1/2 life and be ready
for the next battle, even when I burned a little bit (I just love killing
undead). When I tried that last night I was about 3/4 health when I got up to
90% mana, as regen had already gone bye bye (we cast it before pull so regen can
happen during battle). Oh well, our group knew it's job so I didn't get hit too
much after the first big heals :)
