Remove the expiration of Triumphant Recovery. Seriously, it's stupid.

I'm sick of the one revive item in the game expiring if I wait until I REALLY need it. I shouldn't need to waste a power slot just to not burden others and be able to revive myself. Or go through the trouble of recovering just to run all the way back to a fight.

And yes, I know about the piece of crap in the GCR store.

It's not even game-breaking since Triumphant Recovery only have 4 charges a piece.

    Only the Triumphant Recovery device in the starter pack or whatever it is has a timer. I believe it's a cash shop device and it was probably done because of people like me rolling alts and end up with oodles of the damn things. You can probably find no timer versions on the AH.​​

    The version in the Level X supply kit doesn't have a timer either.

    I find it better to just take Rebirth/Aurora/Thundering Return and forget those devices exist entirely.​​

    Well, I'd just it to be there when -I- need it. Not feel pressured to use it because it spoils, somehow.

    Many of us had a page of recovery devices in our inventories because of the old version.
    That's why they put in the timer.

    Check the AH. You can find untimed ones there pretty often.

    The timer seems like a really stupid fix though when instead, they could've just made it bind-on-pickup so you couldn't pass them around by growing throwaway alt farms. To elaborate on my previous post, I'm not being persuaded that the self-rez item is worth my money at all. By stamping an expiration date on it, I'm just encouraged to throw it away or bank it, forget it exists, and have it throw itself away when it expires.​​

    Putting a timer on that device was a cash grab move. Putting real world timers on all the devices in the level up kits (and many of the other temporary buffs/devices) is among a large list of terrible ideas that the devs have had over the years to try and make a quick buck.

    I don't care for the timer because it like being penalized for not dying, I would prefer the level-box version be a single charge, or binding it like they said above is also a good alternative
