(For those who don’t know this skill. It makes it so you can good percentage damage reduction for only 15 seconds after every action skill activation.)
Now normally I wouldn’t really mind this type of stuff (Especially cause most of the time it gets looked at and improved.) It’s annoying every now and then but I deal with it cause this passive skill she has is one of my favorites. However…I do wanna say it’s kinda frustrating that the skill doesn’t refresh itself everytime you pop your action skill during the time it’s active. Most skill if not all refresh on Amara but that one just doesn’t refresh at all during the active stage but somehow the arms are sort of still active when the buff disappears. Now at first I thought that means the buff was still active but now that I think about it that wouldn’t make sense why would the buff that displays on the bottom of the screen disappear so sooner than when the arms would actually go away till next activation? (By finding out if the arms are still active after the Helping Hands icon disappears you just melee.) It just doesn’t make sense to me and I thought it may of been glitch when I first found out about this but not too sure if it is.
This skill is cool and all especially for tank builds but why do I have to wait for the buff to go away before reactivating it? Is this to keep it balance? Was I right about it possibly being a glitch? Am I only the only one bothered by this? I love this skill but it bugs me time and time again with how it functions. I’d love it to just refresh when every time I activate an action skill or at least buff the timer till last long enough like maybe 20 seconds? That’s another thing why 15 seconds? Some of our other skills will at most last 20 seconds while a couple may last 5, 8, I think 10 even. However Helping Hands last only 15? Not saying that’s a big deal or anything but 20 seconds would be a nice little buff to it. Does it need it? Not really that much but refreshing it on every activation of my action skill would be a VERY nice change and end that frustration. If I’m running a tanky build I don’t wanna wait till my helping hands buff to go away when I got my action skill at the ready but can’t activate it too soon or I won’t have the buff up again.
Amara has been great since the launch of the game. I get it she doesn’t really need to be touched that much but tuning her to be more what? (Yes I’m aware she has gotten some fixes through some updates in the past. I am thankful for that as well. AMAZING so far with the changes that came into this game.) Better with some good fixes maybe changing the issues she has cause I believe she did come out with issues of her own am I right? It would be nice just to see something done about that. Is anybody else bothered about this? Cause I haven’t seen anyone else mention this topic.
