Moderate PQs are bugged

Currently doing PQs for tokens of teamwork.

Issue:
When entering a PQ you lose every buff. When entering a new map you lose every buff. This affects mages as they are required to magic guard as soon as they enter a room that contains mobs and might even die if mobs are surrounding the portal upon entry.

Current bugged PQs (will be updated):
LMPQ
LPQ
R&J PQ
KPQ
OPQ
HPQ

To MapleRoyals staffs,

I have similar experience as OP. First notice this after the latest 72.1 mini-patch. Using 1024x768 client. Details as follows:

Affected character:
FeiLongHuang, Bowmaster 128

Location:
Ludi PQ (haven't tested on other PQs yet)

What happened:
Within PQ environment, whenever there's a change in map location for the affected character (even within the same stage but different portal location), the said character will lose any buffs it has (including self buff and party buff).

Examples:
From stage 1 map entering stage 2 map:

Before


After

From stage 2 map entering stage 3 map, most equips removed

After

Other information:
Controlling other character via multi-client on the same computer, entering the same PQ instance. Not affected in anyway.
Example in the image above is FeiDorobo and other players, only FeiLongHuang character affected.

- Could not identify the exact cause.
- Suspicion: Something with the patch content? Before patch, this bug is not present (at least for me)
- Haven't tried: Using 800x600 client if it replicates the situation

If more information or testing is needed from me, do let me know. I'll see what I can help on my side.
