Despite obvious synergies with cleric’s/fool’s/judge’s miens they are very situational and rarely manage to hit even half of the hostile pack.

It’ll really be case by case, but I’d be surprised if none of them end up shorter.

Basically, I plan on increasing the amount of “credit” I give abilities for have cooldowns of given types/lengths. That increased “credit” can may be used to just reduce the cooldown (i.e: using less cooldown turns), or it might be used to strength other elements (i.e. buying more power with the increased credit.)

Sometimes increasing strength isn’t an option (for example, you’ve probably noticed that non “fatal or miss” attacks never go above 100 Power, +15 if they use two elements, -15 if they cannot miss. That’s an example of a hard limit no amount of “credit” is allowed to break): those’ll be the cases most likely to see a cooldown decrease.

Does it mean some cooldowns will become shorter? Cool!
