This isn't so much an Idea, more of a tweak. This thread is all about powers and auras at Max level.
At the moment powers and auras have really long cooldowns, and can make gameplay both in PvE and PvP extremely slow and generic. The issue is not just having them all on really long cool downs, but all the Auras and Self heals share a cooldown. My Idea is that the Devs reassess the current cooldowns, and also stop all of the Auras from sharing a cooldown, so less powerful auras become more attractive to use, rather then having abilities in the game that hardly ever get used.
Sorry if this is not very long and well written, I am hoping that people can look at the data below and understand what I am talking about by thinking that these cooldowns are not very realistic, Thank you
(note this is not about taunt or shielding, those are both good cooldowns imo)
