Fan the Flames

Post by Sarge »

When I use it, my 'rate of action bar' for the following action goes longer by quite a bit - but my taget (NPC, dunno aout PvP but assume the same) gets the benefit of a shorter action immediately - this can't be right... right?

Should the initiator, or at least both not have a shorter following action due to incresed heat of battle?

Hellooo, any thoughts on the matter at all? The silence is worse than getting flamed.

It's just cooldown.

Every skill has cooldowns, combat intensity makes it shorter, up to a point... charge will always have a shorter cooldown than CAll the Thunder, but higher intensity will make them both take less time.

Fan the flames has a long cooldown... I don't know why, but it does.

I know and that is fine, but it seems the target benefits from the intensified battle imediately while the initiator (the one I see taking charge of the fight, frontfoot, whatever) has to live with the cooldown. This is why I'm asking if this is meant to be like this...

Edit: Come to think of it - this is prolly a useless thead with a planned battle system revamp due.

Well it is more a thread for the C&I imo. That's why I didn't answer.. ^^ but you have a point here.

Suggestion: Have the Intensity occur after your cooldown is up.
If you keep focusing on the shadow behind, you will not see the light in front of you.

Being successful isn't just about hard work and succeeding, it is also about picking yourself up when you fail.
