Dispel system is so screwed up...
Every single time...
I fully buff up. I have like 8 junk buffs and then DMF in 9th slot and POTG in 10th. I get dispelled twice and lose potg and dmf. My top buffs don't get targeted. My weak "low counter" buffs don't get removed. I lose my buffs that take 400 mana to cast or I get from other players. Every single time. How is this a thing? | ||

Usually when I'm getting consistently dispelled on the 4th slot or something, I camp out and when I log in again my buffs are in a different order because the client got out of sync with the server.

I read that thread before I made this post to see if I could figure out how the system is supposed to work.
I reset my buffs with either a death or clicking off every buff and zoning to begin the rebuff. I tried to keep the same buff order through the grind session. 1. Spirit of Wolf 2. Lich 3. Shadow Sight 4. Spirit Armor 5. Resist Poison 6. Resist Magic 7. Dead Man Floating 8. Arch Shielding 9. Skin Like Nature 10. Regrowth Testing on the guards in Felwithe who will chain cast dispel. I'm not sure if it's Cancel Magic or Nullify - but for the purpose of this test and these results it is irrelevant. Through several nights of grinding I haven't had SoW or Lich dispelled a single time. Not once - and they are my first 2 buffs always! I set it like this so I could replace with jboots and my Allure of Death clicky when I got dispelled. That never happened though. Instead, dispel would typically land on me 2-4 times in a row without losing any buffs then I would lose either Skin or Arch Shielding. Occasionally I would lose DMF, but it was almost always Skin or Arch Shielding lost first. After one of those was dispelled I might lose Shadow Sight or Spirit Armor before I had a chance to rebuff. Resist Poison/Magic was almost never dispelled. I read how dispel is "intended" to work... but it certainly does not work that way. I do not remember dispel working like this during this time period on live. I do not remember experiencing dispel working like this on any other box. Something is broken. My Skin/Arch Shielding/DMF/Regrowth should not be getting dispelled before SoW/Jboots/Shadow Sight/ResistX every single time. | ||

When it comes to mobs casting dispel spells, I don't think buff order means anything anymore, unless it's (dragon) aoes with a dispel component that always nuke the top buff.

As far as OP, the Felwithe guards are Paladin's so they are definitely casting regular Cancel Magic, Nullify Magic is a level 58 spell for Pally's. Here's the best description that I've seen on P99's dispel system Quote:

My first 2 buff slots also had weak/low counter buffs. Whether the dispel system targets counters or slots, those should have been the ones dispelled. Not Arch Shielding, Skin like Nature, etc that were at the back.

Going by Haynar's post, if you have two single counter buffs (like see invis and an illusion for example), an annul cast should never get beyond those into your stronger buffs that you intended to have protected against dispels. This just isn't the case though, hence the frustration of many. Have 4 single counter buffs at the top of your buff bar should protect you against having things like aegos and skins dispelled, but it doesn't.
