This is a Deployment Tactics topic.

I've said this a lot myself. Excog should be passed via Deployment, however, in addition, I don't think it should cost Aetherflow. It's a marginally better Lustrate but can't crit. Just make it a cooldown and remove the Aetherflow aspect. The cooldown for Excog allows it to be up every other Deployment anyway. One more thing, Excog should also automatically go off if the timer runs out or reaches the 50% threshold. This way, it still gets a use no matter what. Earthly Star automatically blows up after the two 10s timers count down with no input. Why is Excog different?
