I got a buff once. I didn't know I gotten it until I received the expiration alert >.<
I agree with extending the buff. Two minutes is often not enough time to even realize you've gotten one. 10-15 minutes would be more reasonable.

I just got this as soon as I signed on for the day. It's going to expire before I can do 5 Shinwa's Quests and 10 regular account ones for the Wizard.
It surprises me that this buff doesn't already take these kinds of situations into account, especially for GA users.

It is possible, if you notice the event right when it happens, to do all of your WQ (all fifteen) in five minutes. If you rush. That said, if you don't notice the buff until a couple minutes have passed (I often have more than one tab open to Subeta) then it's not really doable. Also, if you haven't done your Shinwa quests for the day there's no way to get those done as well.
I think you should have at least fifteen minutes. I think that's the amount of time you have on Tempest events before they are invalid.

The time should definitely be extended! So far I noticed 2 buffs - got an event 2 days ago and saw the buff on the widget once earlier - but no way I could have completed 15 quests before the time ran out.
A 30 minutes Buff time would be great, especially with the sites lag or downtimes like the last weeks.

Honestly, why couldn't the quest ones be an all day sort of thing? Maybe take them off the buff list, idk, but just add the +1 to the quest's page? Doesn't make sense to me for it to last such a short amount of time.
I never know when I have this buff. A notification that you get one would be nice. I don't always have my dashboard on display since I always have a ping or two. I never know I have this until I get the notice that it has expired. Can this please be fixed so that we know when we get one and also for it to last more than like 2 seconds. (which is what it feels like)
The buff is completely useless in its current state. I just received it (hoorah), but had only been on the site for maybe 10-20 minutes - so I hadn't done any quests. Got the event, rushed over to Wizard, and started doing quests. I didn't even know the darn thing had a timer, it was more of a "well, this is as good of an excuse as any to do wizard quests. It's cool that I got another quest!" Then boom! Buff turns off. What the hell?
It's just idiotic. If the buff is meant to encourage player interaction (buff for raffle ticket, well, go post more. Buff for quest, go play more), then we should be ABLE to use it! We shouldn't lose it just because we didn't have time to do quests that day yet. Penalized isn't the right word, as it's a "bonus" receiving the buff at all, but it certainly feels like we're being penalized...
"Here, have this delicious dessert. Oh, you didn't eat your dinner yet. NO MORE DESSERT."
(to fix, at least for quests, make the "buff" available for that day, or the next hour.)
Personally, since the buff can only be used once per day, I think it should last till reset. >>

I just ran into this buff and didn't have time to get through more than half the quests before the buff ran out.
Please either trigger it to occur after someone's done their quests for the day or increase the buff time.
Maybe I have the unpopular opinion, but honestly, I don't have a problem with the short buff time. It's exactly what it says, a buff. If you've done your wiz quests already, you get a little something extra. It's not: getting the buff, and then rush rush rush to still do all your quests and get the reward on top of that.
Did your quests? Great, you get a little something extra. Didn't do them? Sorry, but better luck next time.
