Buff stacking, herbs and slot limits

Why a buff is replaced, rejected or removed when another is cast.

L2Tools guideUpdated 2026-09-12

Effect groups and strength

Replacement uses the recorded abnormal effect group and abnormal level, not merely the displayed skill name or a shared stat. In a conflicting group, an equal or stronger incoming effect replaces the previous one; a weaker one is rejected. Instant herb effects can temporarily suppress an ordinary buff while its original timer continues.

Which limit is reached

Ordinary buffs and songs/dances share the total buff limit here; dances also have their own configured cap. At capacity, the oldest eligible effect can be removed. Toggles, debuffs, Seven Signs effects and healing potions have special handling. Check the exact skill and settings before calling a disappearing buff a bug.

Keep in mind

Confirm the player server and exact skill or item when custom settings affect the answer. Source defaults do not reveal live character state.
