Power Back Boosts not Working Properly

Any one notice you’re not gaining as much power from the 200% boosts? Noticed it since YouTubers have posted sp2 CGR & Warlock sp2 spam in EOP.

    They’re based on % of health done to your opponent, so using it on higher health pools is much less noticeable.

    Understood but in AW using CGR Im always back to over 2 bars of power after the first sp2 then at 3 bars by the next one. Something is definitely off about that.

    AW has lower health pools than EoP, so you’re going to recover more power

    As an example, let’s say AW has 200k health and EoP has 500k health.

    If your sp2 does 50k damage, that’s 25% of the AW fight, but 10% of the EoP fight. So you recover more power in AW.

    If you mean why does the second sp2 in the war fight recover more power, it’s because your first sp2 applies a lot of armour breaks, so your second one is going to apply even more and increase your damage again. So the second one recovers more power.

    No im wondering why with a 200% power back boost in an AW fight my CGR did not even gain back 1 bar of power. Same with my Storm PX. They worked fine prior to this weeks AW

    Because its dependent on the amount of damage done in that special attack, did you happen to note the amount of damage done and/or if you crit at all?
