A Game-Changer for Group Content
Previously, Engineering resurrection items required players to have the profession and often a high skill level, limiting their use in combat situations. With the introduction of the Convincingly Realistic Jumper Cables, this barrier has been removed, marking a significant quality-of-life improvement for those engaging in group content.Notably, the quality of the jumper cables only impacts the casting time—Rank 1 takes six seconds, while Rank 3 reduces it to just two seconds. These new jumper cables are poised to become essential for all Mythic+ groups looking to push their keys efficiently!
