    Someone probably already made a suggestion like this, but whatever. I don't see any ways this could be op or up ering chemist buffs, but knowing the people in our society, I can tell someone is going to find a way.

    Being a chemist, it's normal to see someone /b every now and then, and being a cool chemist, you would buff them. Most of the time you probably give them what they want, but occasionally they complain "I only got 20 seconds of buff" or something like that. Then you waste another pair of buffs, which is not that huge of a problem with medics around. Although, this could be slightly less annoying if the way buff retrieval was changed. Instead of having the regular physics of potions used for buffs, when a player is anywhere within the maximum radius of a buff splash, they receive the full timed effect. I'm no genius in aoe for alot of the things in ctf, or minecraft in general so don't expect me to get this completely correct.

    Say a potion splash radius is 4x4. Normally you would get the most out of your potion by standing in the middle 2x2 area and partial effect time anywhere around 3x3-4x4. Instead, even standing on the outer 4x4 area you would get the entire 3 minutes of strength and speed, or 2:15 minutes of fire resistance. Make sense?

    idek if this can be made just to a specific potion or even at all but ahah nothing wrong with trying?

    This would be a huge buff to Chemist support in defense. I disagree with this as long as Chemist is in its current state. If this change is included in a rework to make the class more support-oriented, I like it, otherwise I disagree.

    I stopped reading after I saw 'buff' and 'chemist' in the same sentence.

    because of the words "buff" and "Chemist" without any negative in this title, I'm going to say it's going to make chemist more unbalanced in it's current state

    Would not recommend this, personally. It is pretty unnecessary. If chemist was to be buffed, it would probably be due to another part of it being nerfed during a rework.

    Okay, what you're not really understanding is, it's not a buff. It's a change to the buffs, which barely effects how chemist is :L

    If it's not a buff then why is it titled 'Ez Chemist Buff"?
    And yeah as I understood it this is a buff to Chemist potion buffs because it eliminates any partial buff times in the splash potion radius.
    So there you are :stuck_out_tongue:

    It may not be a buff to the Chemist, but it is a buff to those players that the splash potion hits. You could give a whole defense 3 minutes of Buffs each with just one potion.

    Now, is that really an advantage? You could do that anyway if the defense knew how to read chat :L, now it's just quicker.

    I don't know which way you play, but I am mostly capping with Heavy, Medic or Soldier and I know what it feels like to buff a defense. Now there is no difference between fighting someone who is buffed for 1 or for 3 minutes, but if the whole defense is buffed for the whole time span there will be almost no escape for 3 minutes. Right now a Chemist needs to take their time to properly buff a whole defense. If this changes a lot more people will buff defense on the go. I can assure it will be an incredible advantage to defense.
