    Ok, maybe there is something I don't get, but Heatblast don't seems to recharge Gauss Round, but just reduces cooldown, so how I'm supposing to use multiple time Gauss Round during 8 seconds if the cooldown is 15 seconds? I got the skill westerday, so I didn't play long with it yet.

    Every heatblast reduces the cooldown of guass round by 15 seconds and you can use heat blast 5 times per hypercharge. so you will reset the cd of gauss round and ricochet 2.5 times every hypercharge, so you gotta spam to avoid overcap

    To elaborate on this in case it's not immediately clear, after the first Heat Blast, use whichever of Gauss Round or Ricochet has more charges / less cooldown remaining. Then, alternate after each remaining Heat Blast. That way, you use up the 1 charge that built up in the last two Heat Blasts.

    E.g., if you have 2 charges of Ricochet and 1 charge of Gauss Round, it's
    Heat Blast (Ricochet) > Heat Blast (Gauss Round) > Heat Blast (Ricochet) > Heat Blast (Gauss Round) > Heat Blast (Ricochet)

    Ok, thanks! I got it westerday! Lol! I don't have Ricochet yet, but I understood the Heat Blast/Gauss Round rotation! And a question about AoE. Right now, I just have Spread Shot. Do I just use it again and again in dungeons during mob pull? The next AoE is Ricochet at level 50, and I'm level 39, so that's it for now? Mad Spreading? Lol!

    Even at level 80 spreadshot is your baseline aoe skill and should just be spammed if theres 3 or more enemies, later you get autocrossbow which is the aoe version of heat blast so thats what you spend your charge on, as well as bioblaster which is used every 20s. Ricochet is a ogcd so you can just use it along with gauss round when they come off cd as its free damage.
