If something is about to dispell you, don't stand there and let it finish casting.

Im somewhat lost reading this. Does a.mob.casting dispell have chance to remove any of your buffs? This is jow i thought it worked. In that case, are the junk buffs to give a lesser chance of a good buff getting selected for the dispell? Thanks

Depends on which dispell you're subjected to. Regular old single-removal "cancel magic"--which throughout the majority of the game is the most common--will hit just about any spell seemingly at random. Most multi-slot dispells (annul magic, etc) will strip the first buffs off, in order. Some specialty effects like West Wastes dragon AE's will preferentially strip one of the first 4 most of the time, depending on luck with dispell counters. Junk buffs are highly effective against the latter two types of dispells, not so effective against generic "cancel magic."
