Storm's Eye Is a Chore

[Shurrikhan]

So they need to remove dmg on gap closer

Then you remove its synergy with Inner Release and any chance of it again being a meaningful complement to, or component of, gauge management.

Again, it's in a good place as is. It is already an incredibly well designed skill, probably the best designed <gap closer+> in the game.

Warrior : having to keep a buff every 30s is too hard and annoying. Make it last longer so I can spam 1 combo more often.
DRK : can I have another combo?

[Zarkovitch]

Damn right it is. We need that 40 secs. I've to galaxy brain my IR each time because of it!

You just need to not ir under 16s of eye remaining

[Izsha]

You can do IR practically whenever because you dont have to intterupt a combo. You need 12-16 seconds depending on where your combo is. Heavy swing, maim, FCx5, eye for example only needs 12 sec. Besides, making it 40 seconds doesnt change that. If you cant track your buffs at 30 sec, you wont track it at 40 sec and you will still drop youre eye because you arent paying attention. Using IR with 8 sec left on eye will still happen at 40. Thays always just going to be the players fault for not tracking their buffs.

You cant buff away human error.

You sure can:

New additional effect for Inner Release: Extends Storm's Eye by 10s to a maximum of 30s

Next complaint: "Why can't Storm's Eye be applied when I use Inner Release?"

I wish I was joking, but search your feelings, we all know it's true lol

Yeah i'm not sure how increasing eye to 40 secs would help. Id rather have mythril apply eye. Or have overpower combo into maim is okay too. That way we can overpower to grab hate, then maim, eye, then overpower~mythril tempest again and again.

Would be a great qol change that would actually address the problem with eye.

Increasing eye to 40 secs doesnt seem like it would make a difference.

Just remove the Eye combo and make every single beast gauge spender apply the buff for 30 seconds, up to 60 seconds. DRK got WAR's amazing one button spam cd in SHB, only fair WAR gets DRK's "engaging" buff upkeep mechanic.
