Kosmo suggested this a year ago in https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/archive/bltc/Give-some-boosters-charges-instead-of-a-timer
S/he wanted a booster to make a set of charges that got used up each time you perform an action but don’t have a countdown timer on use. I somewhat like that, but here is what I was thinking of suggesting before I googled that old thread:
Set up a Hero Panel tab for boosters. Each booster bought or otherwise collected adds a charge (similar to the limited use Finishers). Make this account wide. Then whatever alt you’re on can use a booster; it still has the timer on it, can still be extended with the special item that does that, but is no longer an inventory space using item.
Cons: It’s still not easy to quickly access in the middle of action (maybe the long requested UI hotbar for consumables could be made?), and the enchanted powder would have to be worked in somehow.
