It will still cost energy to renew it, so no major energy savings there but an additional 6% damage from the way it is now.

I don't really have any issues with HfB dropping off now, the damage boost is nice but with this change I have to prioritise rupture uptime as well. Not sure if it's going to be easier or harder.

Slice and Dice up
Rupture up
HfB up

I'm going to be watching all three tick down.

As it stands I'm watching S&D < 12 seconds and rupturing if HfB doesnt need refreshing, I'm not really watching rupture uptime, just using it when the other two don't need to be refreshed.
