A new Skill mechanic for better gameplay

killmove

I propose a new mechanic to skills to prevent spaming some OP ones.
Like dodge roll, skills (not spammable ones and finishers) should got a timer + an increase resources if fired before the timer ends.

one example:

• Skill fired
• timer 3 sec
• if Skill fired before timer is out +20% increase in ressources
• timer reset to 3 sec + 2 sec penality
• if Skill fired before timer is out +50 % increase in ressources
• timer rest to 3 sec + 4 sec penality
• if skill is fired before timer is out +100% ressources increase.

Also, lower some OP skill ressources needed for about 30% since the increase is now integrated.

Because everyone likes streak cost increase penalty, right? No.

No cooldowns game should be with no cooldowns. I'd rather see streak unnerfed and this system be cast into oblivion.

No... just no. I would hate such a change.

Because what I really need to be paying attention to in combat is more timers.

PVE DPS is already about managing the buff timers + spammables + LA/HA for max effective resource use. This is just a much more punishing version.
