Advantages & Disadvantages

This section is opinion-based. Your mileage may vary.

Advantages

  • Synergizes extremely well with Chimera builds that plan to learn many physical mutations.
  • Allows boosting rapidly-advanced mutations even further, to the highest possible levels.
  • Increases the Quickness of its users, which allows them to take more actions per turn. This means they can attack more, run faster, and use items faster.
  • Increasing or decreasing adrenal flow is a free action, allowing the player to buff up and attack in one turn.

Disadvantages

  • Relatively high cost.
  • Large cooldown and short duration
