Zergs have access to a reliable source of Major Expedition for 30 secs and can be recasted easily thanks to the stam pools for zergs being numerous. Small scalers have access to channeled acceleration from the psjiic spell tree to escape zergs but it has a cast time, a self snare (It feels like), and can be ccd which is a death sentence esp since zergs tend to spam ccs in an effort to x v 1 you. Nbs can more reliably cast the skill in cloak but other classes could use a buff to channeled acceleration. Something like a 12 second duration increase would make a nice difference esp with how risky the cast time is. As a trade off I could go for a shorter minor force duration of 30 secs.

    I vote for removal of the cast time. Even if it means decreasing the Minor Force duration to 30s or even 24s.

    Removing the cast time would make it overpowered. The other morph and the base skill would be vastly overshadowed. If anything you should ask for the other morph to get a longer major expend duration.

    There would be no reason for the other morph

    Overpowered compared to what? Minor Force is about as strong as Major Prophecy or Savagery, both of which are easy to get full uptime on without using 2 GCD’s to refresh, and often as a passive. Major Sorcery and Major Brutality skills give a similar duration to Channeled Accelration and result in more damage and often secondary effects. Channeled Acceleration is usually results in around 4% more damage, less if your opponent has a lot of crit resistance. If it lasted 25s then you are giving up 1/25 of skill casts to keep up the force, or 4% of your skills. The long cast time it currently has ensures that it is used only as a pre-fight buff for ganking and is not recast during battle.

    True, the other morph would need to be reworked. Maybe have one morph give long duration force with short speed boost, and the other give short minor force and a long speed boost.

    Please make it a toggle or something that ends when you attack or get attacked, and with a lingering crit damage buff when it expires.

    It's sad, but at this point I would be happy with a ONE second buff to the other morph. At least bring it in line with the other Major Expedition spells!

    Its the other morph that needs love not channeled acceleration. Reduce the mag cost and extend the duration of the major expedition on race against time it already cuts sprint cost by 50% for 3 secs which believe it or not is actually very strong.

    agreed, the other morph can be buffed to 4 seconds to be in line with other speed buffs. still we need a buff for the cast time one to 12 seconds
