Perma-Energize?

Just curious if anyone has attempted to make/play a perma-Energize Electric Armor Brute?

It looks like it might be possible, but I'm not sure if it's worth what it would take to achieve it.

Has anyone done this? If so... was it worth it?

With enough global recharge to reach perma-hasten. And 90% recharge in Energize, I still don't have perma Energize. I don't think it would be very worth it, either. Considering the +regen doesn't make a considerable impact. The heal might, though.

I don't consider it worth the extra amount of recharge needed to make it "perma" vs just a 2-3 second downtime - I'd need to get roughly half again as much recharge as I already have to get rid of the downtime, and that'd involve some drastic changes which would lower the overall survivability of the build just for the sake of 3 extra seconds of Energize.

Possible? Yes. Likely without making some major build sacrifices? Not so much. Shooting for a 5-10 second downtime seems to be a good compromise between performance, cost, and everything else in your build.

100% Agree. Survivabilty needs some attention when Electric Armor is involved.

I've tinkered with some designs I drafted in Mids Hero Planner and tried on test. Not really worth the bother.

Assuming 95% enhancement of recharge in it, lightning reflexes, and hasten, it would require 115% global recharge


120/30 = 4
4 - 1 = 3.00 = 300%

300%
-95
205%
-70
135%
-20

115%


Probably not worth it, but YMMV
