There was a recent hotfix to allow world buffs to go out on all layers and not just the one that the quest was turned in on. This however does not work when one of the NPCs is killed.
When an NPC is killed, it “desyncs” the NPCs on separate layers and no longer gives the buff to all layers. This also broke a very a useful addon “Nova World Buffs”.
On many servers, Major Mattingly and Field Marshal Afrasiabi are killed the day of reset. The buffs are then desynced for the entire week after that along with the most useful addon for tracking these buffs no longer being able to track them.
Could you please fix this so it works as you intended it instead of actually making things worse and less convenient for many players?
PS: The lightning no longer goes out either. =(

They did say that all layers where the NPC is ALIVE will trigger the buff…so it is working as intended

It works fine. Maybe you are simply misunderstanding the change.

These NPCs are alive. If they are killed once, say on Tuesday, then they are desynced throughout the week even on Monday 6 days later. So no, it is not working as intended

they should really make it so you can’t kill the NPCs to reset them. that’s super non-Vanilla

still not vanilla-like fam, just because it was possible in the old version doesn’t mean people did it 24 7. literally I didn’t even know what wbuffs were back in Vanilla.

It went over your head, mate.
Their intentions to this version is to have this client reflect the one 15 years prior, they have never made mention of aiming to curb player behaviour.
