Recharge too long

Issue

Recharge time fails in comparison to other enchantment removing skills

Suggestion

Reduce recharge to 15. Keep energy at 15.

Tweaking

Issue

Recharge is too long for a stripping skill. (compare with Rip Enchantment)

Only removes one enchantment. (compare with Rend Enchantments, Gaze of Contempt)

Cost is too expensive for a targeted, single-enchantment, strip. (compare with the fore-mentionned)

Damage is conditional and too low for a 15energy skill. (compare with Lightning Orb)

Suggestion

Any of the following:

- Reduce energy cost to 10.

- Reduce recharge to 15 or 20.

- Scale the amount of enchantments stripped to 1..3 & have the damage trigger only once regardless of the amount of

enchantments (successfully) removed.

- Align damage to that of other 15energy skills.
