Bug: poison poisoned god and mobs too! and skills.

I often use the wither ability to defeat gods (I can always defeat them single-handedly with Merciless). WHen I do so, however,
1. It causes the next mob faced, during exploring, to be poisoned, and possibly to bleed too, though I have not comfirmed this. THat's the good news.
2. It ALSO forces me to recast buffs for the Power of Crist and possibly demonic flesh (though I haven't taken Merciless out for exploring awhile). WHy? Because it seems that if this has not been cast, my block goes down a lot. It is about 230 or so now; I started with like 147 before buffing this time. Fix it, please. The poison bug is not a big problem with me 'cause I don't have any status effect equips on Smashback (though I do have some on other monsters) so I don't miss it when it's gone.

Well I stopped #1 easily, and from what you seem to write... that would thus fix #2 also? Tell me what you can get or at least explain yourself better, I always have problems understanding your bugs.

I mean to say that the block is drastically reduced if those buffs aren't in effect, or so it seems. Or maybe this is just part of the poison thing, I'm not sure. It shouldn't matter because this is not linked with const in some way (or maybe it is, who knows.). It is really easy to recast the buff but it takes a nice 30% energy to do it (ARRRRGGGHHHHH!) Fortunately I almost never have to use the energy 'cause I got good defense and never need to use holy thunder! Dang but Ray of Judgement is like the COOLEST, I once got like 234 damage on a mob a long time ago! Haha!

Oh, well you know... you always have to cast those buffs. I'm actually considering with the new system, to just not have buffs being cast at all, and making them all passive. So if you think that using them all the time is a bug, it really isn't.

no. I mean if you say THAT isn't a bug, then this is: I never need to I don't think. At least this is what I presume. I only need to recast after killing off the god/raid boss with poison (wither), and the block drastically takes a mighty hit (not because of the boss's hit but because of the buff going away.) It stays on through my exploring sessions.
Oh wait and another thing too. Lately it's auto-sent me to explore after killing a god, which is quite weird, and it says I didn't bring a monster out with me, to go to the city and such, so I do. But it's kinda weird. I don't think this has happened in the past, with earlier gods.

Then it sounds like our new skill system will fix it. Yay!
