Special abilities cooldown bug

[Ghortarr]

In matches with accel and double accel on. Its possible to use the special ability pretty fast and more times in one single PVE fight, because time goes faster in general. BUT i noticed that after an arena game wich is PVP and has slightly different rules, the special abilities bug out and suddenly go way way slower than they would with accel and double accel. Understand that i'm farming in fungi forest so i'm not talking about pvp matches. If i'm not queing for arena and if i die in those pve farming times, it doesn't matter cause i can resurect myself with the angel ability, but every DAMN time (sorry for the language) if i would die in the first PVE fight while farming AFTER an arena match has happened. The special ability timer seems to be stuck or way way slower until the next pve fight. It seems to be stuck in PVP mode. After that first pve match is over. Then its back to normal. Why is this? I died and lost RRT again... for it seems to be a bug? I can take a printscreen but you can't see anything because its time based. Quite annoying bug actually.

i think i found the problem. I just tested out my special ability timers in ARENA and the first match after the arena fight.

1. If i use the special ability in the arena match. the cooldown timer gets stuck in arena time even when the match is over. It doesn't RESET! So i have to wait in arena time until i can use it again in my pve match.

2. If i don't use the special ability in the arena. The cooldown works as it should be with accel and double accel.

==> So its hard to believe i have to make a decision based of using my special ability or not in an arena match. If i want to farm quicker/safer or want to win an arena match. Seems pretty unfair. Everything gets reset after an arena match. HP, MANA, ENERGY, even the lost RT when it interupts a pve match, but the CD timer of the special abilities get no reset whatsoever. Thats what i found tho^^

Working as intended , in arena DA has no influence and carries over to normal farming like delay for gems and pets

==> Yet again, Why doesn't it resume WITH DA? After the arena match has ended? Its just not fair that i can't use my abilities in DA mode if my DA mode is active. In general i have only 1 fight between arena matches. I'm using DA. But i can't use my abilities in DA because of arena? Thats just a big waste? Why have i bought DA if my abilities don't reset after an arena match? (not the main reason why i bought DA.) What is the reason it doesn't reset the cooldown? the arena match has ended.. We can continue to farm but we take over the cooldowns from the arena match.. WEIRD.

==> If an arena match is like a teleport.. Everything gets full hp, abilities get reset. Then why do we take the aftermath of the cooldowns with us after the fight? The pvp fight is over. We teleport back with full hp but.. abilities are on cooldown. I literally have to farm after an arena match with way more caution(and slower) than if i wouldn't do an arena match... Why doesn't it get reset also? :P why don't we start clean? Its just weird reasoning... i don't think it can be exploitable..? People with DA wo paid more for the game are at a disadvantage...

cause the delay is based on when you use the CA. Also, go to a lower zone. You shouldn't be farming somewhere where you frequently die.

i'm farming in heroic, its not that i frequently die its just more risky. But the fact that i'm dieing isn't the main issue here. The main issue here is that the cooldown is stuck in arena time where DA is not active. When the arena match is over, It should CHANGE back to DA time. I don't understand why nobody can see that? I don't have to move to a safer location if the specials woudn't be stuck in cooldown in arenatime, now do i? I paid for DA, so if i'm not in arena mode, the specials should also work back in DA time.

==> Using the special in arena or pvp matches with the normal timer is fine. It should be like this.

==> But it can't be possible that the timer in that normal time carries on, in the pve matches. Especially when you use it in arena. Believe it or not, but it affects the farming after those arena matches. Its unfair for DA users if the timer doesn't change back to DA time.

Again, it's because the CD time is based on when you used it. Its been that way since Double accel came out. it's not gonna change.

Thats why i'm here! :P
Using Angel ability in arena is now in a way punished when you are farming AND doing arena for DA users.

Why? :/

Why can't it just be reset after the arena match? Its fair and square for everyone.
I'm not even trying to change pvp and pve matches in general. I'm just saying that arena has his own rules and laws. So why doesn't the CD timer reset? Just saying it will not be changed.. is well, lazy work :/
