Apologies if this has been asked before. I recently linked a Freedom Account to my main, upgrading it to Premium. Well, after that I resubbed my main account, and it changed the linked Freedom account from Premium to Free. Whats the deal? Im sure Im missing something.

...didn't it have like a 5 second recharge?

Glancing at my old copy of Mid's, 3s. If you could get somebody to hold still in it, it out-damaged the entire rest of AR combined.

When you say combined, what do you mean exactly? If you mean that spamming Ignite did more ST dmg than any other atk in the set then I agree. Personally I thought that was the idea. Given the long animation time coupled with the Fear effect and the fact it was a DoT and not upfront damage, I thought that was the trade off.

I didnt mean a balance decision so much as a playstyle decision.
I understand the likely reasons behind it, but compared to other powers in other sets, I find it hard to justify from that perspective.

Maybe they should let the players actually using the power make that distinction.

With 2 SO's i got it to around 13 sec or so, 3 gave me 11 i think. Ignite was my primary wpn used to burn down Bosses (literally). Now I have around 5-6 seconds of downtime between activations. That sucks. Kills the feel of the power.

Ive been away from the game for a good while, since sometime last year I reckon, and thought Id resub just to kick around for a little bit. Decided to dust off my old AR corr for nostalgias sake and noticed the recharge on ignite has been at least doubled, and looks like the aoe has been shortened as well. When did this happen, and what was the reason behind it? Ignite was one of the more fun and unique powers of the set, now with the longer recharge coupled with the long activation time, I wonder if its even a power worth using anymore.

Edit: Before I jump the gun(pun intended) Ill ask, was anything done to ignite or AR to compensate for this change or was it just an outright nerf? It doesnt seem like any other powers in the set were changed at first glance.

What in the tapdancing hell is goin on here??!!

This was fixed with the latest patch. The droning fades away after 10 seconds.
