Spells: Buffs Dropping Whilst Zoning (With Aggro/Threat?)

[Orotiagito]

I've been away from EQ for a while, but I have noticed that my buffs are dropping while I zone. For instance:

When I get too much aggro in Unrest and have to head for the zoneline, I'll lose all my high level buffs.

But..

When I get buffed before heading into Unrest from DC, I keep my buffs and don't encounter the problem.

I've had this happen when I had aggro from the griff in ECL, when I zoned out into WCL I lost my SoW and DS. I'm guessing it has to do with threat and zoning, it's really odd. Is anyone else aware of this?

Edit: I just experimented with the Dagnor's Cauldron / Unrest ZL; I threw Breeze and Shielding on and zoned in, the buffs remained, but when I zoned back out.. gone.

However, it doesn't happen every time. Not sure on the ratio of occurrence or on variables of threat/aggro.

Buffs drop when you zone with less hp than the amount of raw HP your gear gives you. It has nothing to do with agro, zone, or anything else you had listed.

When low level it is a nice way to deal with rabbies...
