I concede that I forgot to consider FTA's cooldown, for one very simple reason: It has never once been an issue for me simply since you don't get back up to a high enough FP total for it to trigger before that fast enough. Honestly, as it stands now, that cooldown is completely pointless unless a Monk/GS is spamming power up repeatedly or something. I concede the cooldown could be justification to lower the FP threshold. However, I also feel that lowering the threshold would make PVPers rage and demand the skill's effect be changed until dev caves and does so just to shut them up. For example, to Lolzy's suggestion that makes it useless to a solo Phenex.
Also, I never stated that you wouldn't only lose 50% of your current. My example was based around someone trying to game the system for two successive revivals, so they'd be just about maxed out anyways. I do not misunderstand that aspect of the racial ability. I simply forgot about the cooldown, that is it.
However, as someone who's missed THREE successive 97% skill growths WITH lady luck (Yes. Three in a ROW,) I need to say, an extra 5% is ALWAYS appreciated. Especially since that 5% ties it for the best in the game. IMO, if something is going to be the best at ANYTHING, it NEEDS drawbacks. If there was a 30 skill race, I wouldn't be "hung up on" that extra 5%, but there isn't, meaning it's tied for the highest.
