Inner Abilities Dilemma

Greetings fellow DBs,

Many of you are familiar with the skill Final Cut, the amazing skill that gives us a huge damage boost via a buff
..But the buff only last 60sec and have a cooldown of 90sec

With me wanting this to last forever (or as close to it as possible), I have spent the past day or 2 at Azwan getting my honor to lv 30 for 2 lines of abilities as well as many circulators

After spending 60 or so of my circulators I now only have 37 Rank 8 ones left
with [S] 14% chance for cooldown ignore and [B] 150 accuracy as my current inner abilities

My question [b](TL;DR)[/b]:
Should I spend the rest hoping for +buff duration or keep the 14% chance to ignore cooldown
And is lets say around 20% +buff duration (about 12sec more on FC) better than 14% chance for cooldown ignore?

Feel free to leave your suggestions

I got lucky and got 28% buff duration at lv 35 honor. Ever since then, I have been saving circulators and I'm getting close to 60. You should do that too.

I got a 42%buff duration, but sadly I am a cannoneer for its useless for me. Someone also told me that there is a false ban in Azwan is that true?

Line's are totally random, so you can never tell how many it would take.

i have 33% buff duration from inner ability alone, but i was wondering if i should aim for more like 40% or something, like how many circulators would that take on avg?

keep the current until level 60 honor and then spend all those circulators to get 30% buff duration ^-^

Well i have 3 lines already...but i remembered it took me like forever to get this 33% buff....
Yea...you can have 2 mechs right now, but i'm thinking after match, we can only use one...so i'm thinking of the future =(

[quote=dlord44]okay so i have 33%+15%mech card+decent CO+lev70 mercedes card. But i notice i am still a little tiny bit away from always on fc. So what is ur guys' experience in circulating for buff duration, should i circulate my 33% away for hopes of higher %buff duration?[/quote]

Unless you have your 3rd line already, I would suggest getting that first. After getting your 3rd line I would try to re-circ for more %buff duration because it goes up to 50%max. Maybe try hitting two lines of it just for the extra boost.

@wyvernaco: I knew a reply would come up saying this.

actually...i'm probably going to circulate -___-....buff duration is probably better...since it most likely also applies to link skills

Wow, it's going to take you forever to get to honor level 60. Today I got my honor level from 42 - 55. That's around 660k honor exp.
Good luck on getting the increase buff duration inner ability! I'm going for critical rate, boss damage, or buff duration on my Phantom.
Save the circulators for honor level 60, when you get three lines just hope for the best!

i got the 16% cooldown ignore thing, i have 3 lines of inner ability...i decided to keep mine...b/c not sure if you guys know, but the 16% cooldown applies to link skills (terms and conditions)

Trust me, wait until you hit level 60 Honor and the recirc. I have two level 100 Mechs, two level 100 Mercs, and 34% Buff Duration, and it lasts like 5 seconds past the CD for me. [url=http://i.imgur.com/qGL6aw1.png]If I hadn't unlocked the third line, I wouldn't have had unlimited FC.[/url]

Get to 60 and reroll
Trust me it's way worth it in the end.
mech card is 15% and with 30% inner thats 45... I guess you'd need either a lvl 200 mech OR around 35+ inner

That cooldown ignore could be very useful if it affects hyper skills.

Took me a 100-200 with no results, then I decided to boost it to 60 and use them then. On the 15th one out of the 200 I saved up I got buff duration.

I got 30% buff duration after a few Special Circulators. Don't worry, you'll get it man.

I'd keep going for +buff duration just for consistency's sake. 14% is kinda sketch, and I doubt you'll see it's effects often.
