Name: Salvation
Type: Stat preservation
Function: Locks in buffs so if you die once, your buffs are preserved once you are awakened/revived/defibed

Definitely a good idea for a power up. The only think that bugs me is the name, personally I think that name should be use for a Ring later on down the road. But what else can we call it? The item is like life insurance for your buffs.

Then there's the cooldown time, price, and how many uses it'll have.

Also it'll need to be very descriptive as to how it works.

And I still can't believe they did say the most important part right away when they gave us the idea: Only works for one death and has a cooldown almost as long as Chuck Norris' p***s.

I like this power-up, but especially if the "only works once" will actually stay on you until it activates (or you log), that way on those harder runs, you activate it pre-run, and always have that knowing nod of "if I die, I'll have my buffs when I get back up."

This will be especially vital towards harder instances that are coming up (DMS and more). I love it. Kayi Approved.

I think the duration might be something along the lines of 20m, or until it takes effect as you daze. This way it takes a little forethought, but if you're about to rush a swarm, you know you'll want this active.

The main point of contention was, will it lock in the state of your buffs as you use the powerup, or only at the moment of your defeat? I favor the latter approach.

As another additional note, I think Salvation should also extend the duration of any nearly-expired buff (under 30s or so) by a minute. This way you won't suddenly lose buffs right after your revival.

And I like the idea of calling this one "Life Insurance." Or Daze Insurance, perhaps.

I see your mission here is to hate ALL THE NAMES XP
How about a ring that makes u invincible to losing health and stam for about 10 seconds so you can run in and help crew members either escape or defib and we call it the Lei Hero power up? <3 Oh and redirect all aggro to the one using the power up... Hell how bout you die after you're done protecting and call it the Lei's sacrifice power up?

Back on topic, love the idea because it is such a pain to have to rebuff people after defib, it would really help those who take in lower cl members, I don't mind the name at all really and please ignore Lei about the prices, he'd give his soul to save zOMG! And if he won't I can convince him to wink
