Does Power Boost effect anything in Accelerate Metabolism from the Radiation Set

[SmalltalkJava]

Does anyone know whether or not if you pop Power Boost before firing off Accelerate Metabolism if it will impact any of the buffs that it gives?  If so which ones?  Will it boost the recharge portion?

Off the top of my head, I'm not sure, but one way to tell would be to monitor the relevant stats via the Powers tab.  

My most decorated hero has AM, maybe I'll conduct the research when I get back in game.

I think only the run and Fly speed.

ok, I just remembered about City Data.  Looking it up.  PB says it does boot Endurance.  I wonder if it would impact the "Recovery" portion of AM? Probably not since it would say "Recovery" in PB's description.   It doesn't look like it would impact anything besides the run/flight/jump.

I think the endurance part is Endurance Drain, not recovery. I'm pretty sure the only part of Accelerate Metabolism that is affected by power boost is the movement speed portions.

Endurance drain and buff. For example, Electrical Affinity has a power called Energizing Circuit which grants endurance to allies.

My rad/son def has PB and AM.  Just tested and found:

PB does not boost AM's recovery rate or damage buff.

It does boost movement speed for entire duration of AM.  My hover went from 42mph plain AM to 48mph PB+AM.  

It does boost the status effect resistance for the entire duration of AM - I went from 30% duration to 18% duration. 

 

...my primary use of PB on Rad is to make my heal and def supercharged for 15sec for those 'oh shit' moments.
