[Multiclass] Make 1 hour buffs the "buff" type.

Right now there's a problem with a lot of long duration buff spells IE Sigmar's Grace, Aetheric Armor, Prismatic Shield etc. in that they are removable by Sever Blessing/Purge/etc. The offensive removal abilities definitely have a place in the game, but that should be to remove shorter duration abilities IE HoTs, block/parry/stat buffs, etc.

Most of the pre fight buffs constitute a significant portion of a characters value to themselves and their team. Furthermore they are difficult, if not impossible, to reapply mid fight due to cast time, loss of global cooldown, or even simply difficulty telling who's missing what buff.

The fix is simple, just change the buffs in question the generic "buff" type rather than blessings or enchantments.

Declining. Difficulty in reapplying buffs or telling who's missing what buff is related to the player's skill level.
