Kit refinement and tool kits superspeed
Is it just 1s? Ugh, I’d rather have the caltrops.. Those were quite good actually.

Agreed. I love the changes to our formerly useless KR effects (med kit and bomb kit) but the trait is still all about getting the strong effect and avoiding the weak effect. Only now that the 20s ICD is working correctly, it’s a big problem to “waste” kit refinement on a useless effect.
Before, using multiple kits with KR was a good thing because you had multiple utility slots that gained a benefit from a single trait. I’m not so sure KR will be worth it with 2+ kit builds anymore.
They are Definitely trying to tell people to use one kit if they are running KR.

Lol yes, even though kits are supposed to allow to switch weapons more freely than with weapon swap, I find myself more restrained when I put on this trait now. I’m hoping that is not what the developers went for when making a trait for kits.

Yup. I saw in another thread a comment to the effect of “I would only take KR in a single-kit bomb build,” and I think that’s going to essentially be how it shakes out.
The 20 second CD on the kits would be manageable if we could still jump and save our refinement.
Weirdest thing for me: the old proc on tool kit from kit refinement, was actually one of the most balanced procs around.
It was simple, had utility, did a little damage and had a decent cooldown.
I have no idea why they felt they had to change this one too.
And a 20 sec global cooldown? Seriously?
The new Kit Refinement would be awesome if each proc had a seperate 20 sec cooldown, uneffected by each other proc.
In this form it’s more of a nuiissance than a benefit to any build using more than one single kit!
Wiggely, wobbely and other wombaty wabbity creatures…
speedbuff sounded great. 1 second gives u absolutely nothing. 3 seconds different world. In WvW it would save many engis life.

What? Do you have some impulse to jump every time you switch kits or something?

Well when I actually played often, I pvp’d on my engi, and it’s pretty important to not waste your main spike.

By the way he said it I’m guessing its been fixed, but before if you switched while jumping the kit refinement didn’t go off.
