Looking at Victory Rush

[Story Archer]

It seems an odd power that doesn't get used much, if at all, in its current form - especially considering that by the time most characters can take it, everyone else has likely handled their Endurance issues and Vengeance seems so much more appealing an option.

 

How about this as a fix/alternate take:

• Make the power an auto ability
• Have it give a small increase in both Recovery and Recharge
• Reduce the duration for 30 seconds.
• Have it only apply to foes of Lieutenant level or higher with scaling impact depending on the rank of the enemy defeated.

 

That would seem to better capture the intended mechanical and thematic feel of the power, it would make it appealing to anyone taking the Leadership pool and would see value at all levels but not to the point that it would be game-breaking.

The only character I've taken that on is Major Viktory. Somehow, it just seemed appropriate.:-)

 

(Maj is at L40 now. I'm not finding it adds much, to be sure, but I do activate it, after I've downed an LT or better. My END's okay, atm, but every little bit helps.)

I honestly don't have an issue with the power outside of its shit recharge time. Makes it not worth taking'

 

Kinda wish the recharge was based on which tier enemy you got the buff from

You’d think - but I’ve run plenty of ITFs with teammates who would have been in a world of hurt if someone on the team didn’t have something to help with end issues.

Ive a feeling some people build with the hopes that there will always be a teammate capable of “hiding” their weaknesses

The recharge time and the small Endurance return you get for this power makes it really not worth taking at all.  I've tried it in a few different builds and every time I've used it, I wondered "Why am I even bothering with this??"
