Selo's Accelerando is lasting 12 seconds, 2 ticks.

As soon as you cast this song, it should give you 18 seconds in the buff window, and it is giving you 12. Almost every bard song in the game, from Classic to Whatever, gives you 18 seconds per song.

The vast majority of Bard songs last 2 ticks, and it takes about 1/2 a tick to cast one, which is why twisting 4 buffs at once is the maximum. You can only twist more than 4 when you include songs like the dots, or selo's consonant chain, or the ae fear which last longer. If Selo's Accelerando should be lasting more than 2 ticks (and I have no idea if it should, I didn't play a Bard on Live), you should supply evidence instead of saying nonsense like, "compounded with the plethora of other bard-related bugs, it is really the gigantic straw that breaks the camel's back".

So our DoT songs, which also have a duration of 18 seconds in every database known to man, should only be lasting 12 seconds on mobs. Oh wait, they last longer?! Let's get this shit fixed asap!!

Why would you think that dots should last longer when they have the exact same duration as our buffs in every spell description, everywhere?

So you think Bards were able to twist 6 buffs at once in classic? That's news to me.

I guess I'm wrong, and I'll just stop now so they don't nerf the dots, too.
