    I would like the duration of Aetheric Feedback to be a bit longer, like 1.5 or 2 minutes.

    Actually, it would be great if the duration increased with skill level.

    It would be nice if focus spec made it more powerful or increased duration too. Right now all it does is increase the time you have to get the combat focus buff.

    I think specialization should make the focus recovery part better. Right now, it's about the same as a single charge of Rhapsody of Recovery, which doesn't require any twitch timing. Guess which one is on my main combat bar?

    That would be nice. I use them both constantly and I agree aetheric feedback could use some love in some way. Right now it lasts for 2 minutes with a 6 stack. I wish it was more like 2 minutes for a single stack and 3-4 minutes for 5-6 stack.

    I agree with everyone here, it should last 2-3 mins on a single cast and then stack higher from that.

    I often cast AF and then drop out of combat! DOH I wish it also had the same regen for out of combat as when in combat.
    It would also make an great combo spell with jinx, maybe it could swap to HP regen, but thats another request all togeather!

    It should. That's another good point.

    +1 I always like anything that will improve skills and make them feel better to use.

    I think the biggest issue with this skill is it doesn't feel like it matters much with focus spec.... and focus spec doesn't add much overall.

    After using it with the spec and without as an air mage, I honestly don't feel any different. I can easily manipulate a 5 stack without focus spec to get the combat focus bonus, the added bonus to the ability to time it really is junk.

    It should add a small bonus to combat focus, duration and even max focus. The extra window to get the combat focus buff is useless. Most anyone can figure out that just Spellbinders Stance and lightning storm can activate the combat focus bonus easily.

    The benefits to adding focus spec are a small combat focus buff and a small increase for Spellbinders Stance. Doesn't seem worth it compared to the alternatives.
