Does anybody here use concentration RA (resets quickcast)? I've tried concentration on my Light Eld because it seemed good in theory, especially for solo situations.

E.g. if an enemy tank/stealther jumps you and resists qc stun/mezz (or uses merc/zerker charge), pop concentration and qc again, or if tank is very low on hp and already on you, pop concentration and qc dd.

But once I trained for concentration RA, I never seem able to use it much. The first qc takes 2 seconds, and the 2nd qc takes another 2 seconds, and another 2-3 seconds are wasted after hitting qc and having to wait out the interrupt. I'm usually dead in those 6-7 seconds.

Completely Useless RA , if they would make it an insta where it was basically a second QC it MAY hold some value but as it is an RA that will allow you to cast again in 6 seconds is worth nothing.

I have it on my Molvik mana eldie, to tide him over until he can afford the big MoC someday. It's not that horrible, although flipping bars to reset the QC then re-QC'ing, then waiting out the interrupt does seem to take forever. But really, at lower levels, 2 quickcast pbaoe's is enough to blow up most people, or at least wound them enough to sprint out of range to finish them off.

I'm generally happy with it, although the RA in general would benefit greatly from an reduced re-use timer. I'll respec out of it once I can afford MoC3 of course.
