BG Wiki indicates that max Phantom Roll duration is 11 min. with all gear, merits, and stuff. I added all the numbers, and I'm coming up with 11 min. 30+ seconds. However, when I actually use Phantom Roll, the timer reflects 10 min. flat. I did show swaps on my gearset, and I am equipping all the appropriate gear. Has anyone else experienced this?

The timer will show 10 min, but the status icon should show 11 min. Time your roll and see how long it actually lasts.

You're right. False alarm. I guess the timer in the lua just hasn't been updated to reflect the extra time from Empy gear or something.

If you have an 11 minute roll, when it hits 10:59, the timer is going to say 10 minutes (depending on the timers you use). Time your rolls.

The Timers plugin is too complex to try to change it. The Settings file, itself, doesn't get granular with each ability. The .dll file...I don't know how to work with that.

Timers plugin doesn't control what time is shown, that's set by gearswap or other addons that use timers.

There should be a setting in your gearswap to adjust buff times. Some gearswaps calculate it automatically.

Timers absolutely does have native bufftimer support for cor rolls. So, yes, it does control that number by default.

Some gearswap lua(or addons) might make custom timers as well, but then you'd need to filter out the native bufftimers for cor rolls in your timers config or you'd end up with two sets of roll timers. If this was the case, the user in question would have had to add that to their timers config manually, so they'd know about it already. That or they'd have two sets of timers, and they'd probably have mentioned that if it was the case.

It's really not hard to update Timers if someone tells us which gear it is missing and how much it adds. The hard mechanics of timer duration were worked out long ago.

It being an augment does make it a bit harder, but I have this gear so I can probably figure it out.
