Make communal bonfires like banners

[Jilora.9524]

What I mean is if I have 15m left on a heroes banner it refreshes the time back to 30m or 1h I forget. Now if I have a 12m Karma boost from a communal bonfire interacting with it only gives us "you already have this boost" but it remains at 12m and I have to wait till it runs out to re get the 1 hour boost. TY

But yes, please!

The reason that I imagine these don't work this way is likely because they stack in duration with some other Karma buffs, such as Karma boosters, so if you've popped a Karma booster for an hour, then added an hour from a bonfire, you wouldn't want the time reset to one hour if you went back to the bonfire 30 min later. Maybe there's a way to code around this and maybe they could just make it a separate buff, but I imagine that either of those would take more work than they would prefer to put in for a small quality of life boost.

if you have over an hour karma booster why would you got back to the boonfire?

They don't stack with karma boosters, if you use a booster then use the bonfire you get exactly the same message as if you tried to use the bonfire twice and it does not add to the duration.

I agree it would be helpful if it could reset the boost to the full 1 hour duration. (I've checked and both the booster and the bonfire have a 1 hour duration, so there's no risk of losing time if you're over that.)

Or you could, you know, do the easy thing and just let everything stack for hours like most other stuff. The reasons they wont fix this are the same as why they nerfed the candy gobbler into the ground.
