(level based)% chance that Agility-based skills don't go on cooldown after use

Triple-jointed is a physical mutation that grants the player heightened Agility and a mutation level based chance for activated skills that use Agility as their primary stat to not incur their cooldown when used. When this happens, the message log will return "You do that with ease.", and some floating text will appear that says "No cooldown!". This can occur multiple times in succession.
