The new awakening skills show that we really need a way to reset cooldowns between bosses

Every game has a way of doing this, Guild Wars 2 resets your cooldowns if you type /gg and it kills yourself, so you can start a boss and /gg to reset cooldowns real quick. If you do a quick wipe in FFXIV, your cooldowns reset, same with World of Warcraft.

This was already a problem with infuriate being on cooldown, or vow being on cooldown and having to wait upwards of 4 minutes between bosses for someones cooldowns to finish. Now it's gotten even worst, and I have to make the decision to unleash at 20% or be nice to my party and hold onto it. Either my DPS increases or my wait time before the next boss increases. It's not just a problem for dungeons or raids either, if you're using the reinhardt-esque shield for lancers in HH to block pushback, it goes on cooldown for EIGHT MINUTES. Meaning you have to wait eight minutes until the next pull in Harrowhold. If you're doing ghillieglade, you have to do some of them without unleash, same goes for Pit of Petrax.

I don't know how exactly to implement this, but there's a few ways. When you kill a boss, reset cooldowns. When you wipe to a boss, reset cooldowns. Add a button in the menu next to the buttons that say like make lead, kick player, etc. that resets cooldowns if you've been out of combat for 30 seconds.

Please talk to BHS about this, because this is very much a needed feature, and I see no cons to such a feature. Maybe like less talking between pulls, but I dunno, I barely ever see people talking between bosses unless they're friends, which they'll probably do during bosses on like Discord or something anyways.

    This a issue for you.

    You prefer increase you dps for just show yourself. Or clear faster the dungeon. Noone is saying you need wait before next boss. Who cares if the boss is enraged or not in the begin. You waste 1min waiting when you could have killing fhe boss already and it be at 80% already.

    Hh is not a problem. If you wipe trying to these strategy is your fault. You should do the dungeon on the wat was suppose to be done.

    LMAO this is a huge problem that a ton of people complain about. When OP's post gets a dozen thumbs up, your whole "this is an issue for you" post is going to look so stupid and out of touch that it'll be unbelievable.

    Doesn't reinhardt shield go on 8 min cd only if you mess up the first push and use it too early?

    Either way I'd also like if there was a way to reset cds before a fight, it can get pretty annoying. It's not like everyone is trying to parse either, I tend to mess up my rotation or something without enrage at the start etc. It would be more convenient if cds reset.

    Probably, but most raids are only going to wipe if you mess up shield anyways. King blob is also like what, 6 minutes? So that's another big thing.

    Wait which mech do raids use shield on? Mine just uses it on the first or 90% pushback because it can bug out the 50% debuff mech.

    Our raid blocks first pushback, holds at 90% before firewalls, and then blocks 90% pushback. Pretty much means you hold GS/AR at start, and instead use GS/AR after firewalls have passed and it'll last until the next GS/AR is popped.

    Ohh I see.

    This is actually a nice idea. I am all for this if it won't be abused like resetting your cd mid-fight or [filtered] like that. Otherwise it is a perfectly reasonable feature.

    But knowing BHS, they can't even add an inspect function when you click a player's name for years.

    i don't hate the idea, but:

    could easily be abused by mystics for basically 100% contagion uptime

    so it definitely needs some polishing but i wouldn't be against it

    While I don't see it as pressing as an issue (to be honest your examples in ghilleglade is a little weak since we never needed awakening skills for ghilleglade to end in less than 30 seconds, and most tanks now go double cdr as well as infuriate cd glyph for increased infuriate uptime so usually it never ends up on cd unless you screw up on the very first minute of the fight or if the run goes so fast that you don't need the infuriate anyway), it is a good QoL. BGs with multiple stages like CS are an example (auto reset on stage 1 and 2).

    Then again I feel like there is a reason why they intentionally made it such that you can't abuse that awakened Lancer skill in HH. What if BHS actually just doesn't want to include this feature because honestly many korean games already have this feature and the concept isn't actually new to begin with?
