    Suggestion: My suggestion is to make buffer users use there strength 2 potion in a certain time alotted. (1 minute after grace period, or they can only use it during grace period etc.)

    Reason: Buffer is a kit that has infuriated many. I currently own the kit and think it is WAY over powered. I, as well as other have saved my strength potion for the deathmatch in fear that someone will have saved theirs. If buffer users are given 1 minute to drink their potion or have to drink it in the grace period before it is wiped, other non-kitters may stand a chance by hiding or avoiding buffer users in the first couple minutes. Then after buffer users get their kills on whoever couldn't hide well enough or whoever was out in the open the match will be a Strength 2 free match. That way buffer users will not fear that someone else is saving their Strength potion and non-kit users won't have the same fear. This should even out the deathmatch playing field, because if you survived until deathmatch, you should have a decent chance. Khobbits was talking about a change to make buffer less op and I think this could be the fix.

    Any Other Information: I only believe the strength 2 pot should be on a timer. You should be able to use your health potions whenever you'd like and same with speed potions. I know most buffer users will oppose this, but I believe this would be best for the community as a whole.

    -1. So many buffer complaints.

    I had to work hard, play hard, against the Bfr users when I made my money.

    I worked hard, I played hard, I won a few games. Bought Bfr, Bfrp, Bfrpp etc.

    Look at me now... MIQPP, BFRPP, SPYPP, PFPP, CCP. 100% ECD.

    This is different in that I'm not saying "end buffer forever." Khobbits was talking about a limiting fix like this. You replied immediately when I posted this, so please read the entire suggestion next time.

    I'm not one of the people who go running and killing others as soon as grace period is over. I wouldn't have bought buffer if I was forced to chase others after grace period.

    Survival games has turned in to a pay to play experience, let's face it. The moment they added those kit++ upgrades(no cooldown time), was the moment all hope was lost for the survival games on this server. Sad, but true.

    -1 i have been interested in sg since i first walking into ECC. that was over a year ago when kits, were nonexistent. We were fine then, but then all these "fabulous" kits got introduced. I being the SG player i was, decided to make money from sg and buy my own kits with ecd. I currently have CCP and BFRP. These kits alone, have cost me a total of 400k+ and if the advantages of being a buffer user were depleted and removed, i would be very upset. Now having buffer a few months, I realize that there are 3 ways to use buffer. The first way is to use it just before grace-period ends, and slaughter as many people as possible. Second way is to use to defeat a stacked person in the middle of the game, and final way is to use it in death-match to try and win the game. Buffer may be a "OP" kit, but its all to the person who uses it. Using buffer still takes skill and to limit it would be unfair to the owners of this kit. Also the purpose of the new "Kit Free" SG Matches was to balance the use of buffer and in general the use of kits.

    I understand your side. I love using buffer too. But right now, new users leave because of it. If they could go to deathmatch with a 33% chance of winning instead of a 3% chance if a buffer user is in, then it would encourage users to come to the server and play survival games. Again I am not suggesting clear all potions, just the strength 2 potion. You still have an amazing chance of winning with a speed 2 potion because it makes you very hard to hit.

    I like the idea of changing buffer but i dont like this method. I don't like buffer because unless there is a perfect fit or another buffer or your a conplete noob there is a 100% chance you will win -.- I've been in 12 games where I snuck up on a noon buffer and killed them and I won all 12 times and they were full arenas
