so i hear that the recharge of a power divided by the duration, minus 1 is how much recharge you need for a power to be perma. im going for perma mindlink on a NW...so 240/90 - 1. ok so thats 1.666666...ok so now what? what do i do with that number?

i have hasten 3 slotted with rech, mental training there too and sittin on 53% global rechar (not includin hasten....also i 6 slotted mind link with defense and to hit buff sets for rech and its now down to 93%).

it just makes no sense to me...what is 1.6 and what does it tell me about how much global rech i need??

Basic math from 6th grade: 1.66 = 166%.

You need 166% total recharge in Mind Link for it to be perma. Since you already have about 53% globally, you only need a bit more. Since you already have 93% (is this before or after ED? I'll assume after), you need about:

So 166% - 53% - 93% = 20% more needed. That's Mental Training if you didn't count it in the global recharge of 53%.

Note you need about 175% global recharge to perma Hasten, so just going for perma Mind Link is a lot easier.
