The skill is way too balanced to be in this game anymore. It should AOE stun and do blast finishers to all targets hit as well as apply vulnerability and slow to targets hit by it.

 

The skill currently thinks that it's still bulls charge -> 100 blades and no one has a stunbreaker era.

you know its a healing skill supplimentary right? You are supposed to use it to get people off your back, not as a bolstering of your offense.

Even then it can use some buffs. Making it a PBAoE stun with a shorter cast time would actually help it do this job, because then you can also use it while you are running away and you can use it more reactively as a form of defense.

The fact that you have to face your enemy to use it actually hurts it if it's supposed to be a tool to get people off your back.

This skill works fine enough in PvE. 

In PvP I never try to land this raw. The stubby range and cast time makes it too easy to avoid. It's useful as a combo extender. I normally chain it after a magnet, a netshot, or after a rifle 4 -> 5 combo. 

It could use some modernizing, but that goes for a lot of engi's kit tbh.

Counter-proposal:

  • reduce cast time from 3/4s to 1/2s.
  • change from single target to pbaoe untargeted
  • radius: 240
  • stun duration reduced from 2s to 1s

 

Best idea by far. Identical to Transmute Lightning and very functional.

To the OP saying it needs cleanse, just go Tools for a built-in cleanse.
