I really like the way the streamlined kits trait for engineer gives an indicating icon when the ICD is off cooldown. I was wondering if this could be extended to ICDs (in traits and runes) for other professions.
A couple of examples I can think of are:
Mesmer’s ‘Desperate Decoy (cloak when below 50% health, 40s ICD),
Thief’s ‘Hard to Catch’ (Break stun and refill endurance when CC’ed, 30s ICD) and
Engineer’s ‘Self Regulating Defenses’ (Drink Elixir S when below 25% health, 60s ICD)
Being able to see when such traits come off cooldown would allow players to actively utilize such traits rather than just getting lucky when it procs. Especially in the case of ‘Self Regulating Defenses’, because elixir S at an inopportune moment can disrupt the engineer’s current skill activation. At least with an ICD indicator the engineer can perhaps willingly drop below 25% health to proc elixir S, then continue his combo after elixir S wears off
