Thread: How do I get Action Duration to match all other Stat durations?

Hehe, well that or ... you'd have to experiment with different kinds of organic and inorganic.The reason action usually has alonger or shorterduration it's because people use organics andinorganics with higher or shorterDR than the reactive and avian meat they are using in the other packs. So if you don't want to use your avian meat and reactive gas you gotta do a little mix and match till you get a result that will have a close duration to the other packs.
Personally, I only use organics and inorganics in my action packs, not only because it saves me a precious amount of avian and reactive gas but because as I've learned by selling buff packs, people actually prefer a higher action pack if they can get one. And also I find the whole mix and match till you get a almost perfect match with the other packs challenging. Currently my 880 power packs have a differenceof 10 seconds between the action and all the other stats. So in the end works for my customers, works for me and everybody is happy with that.

Ohhh, never use avian you Action buffs.... the horror.
To get your duration to match then:
(0.4 * OQavian + 0.6 * DRavian + 0.4 * OQgas + 0.6*DRgas) must equal
(0.4 * OQorg + 0.6 * DRorg + 0.4 * OQinorg + 0.6*DRinorg)
Since you can use any org or inorg it is rather easy to get the equations to match. If you are having a hard time then tryusing the gas but and then looking for an org to replace the avian.
Once you get the durations to match then double check that the PE on the org isabout the same or higher than your avian PE. At that point your most likely going to have an action packwith the same duration but higher power than your other packs.
Take some factory-rests of ABECs, ASDS and ACRDs and test a bit around with different resources.
You can also take lower-quality resources for the sub-components maybe, because mostly you hit more power on action only by the resources, so you dont need to waste the best petro-4-fuel in your ACRDs.
I managed to get 4 secs close - Action Enhance has 12395 at 918 Base and the other packs 12399 at 918 Base - and iam a bit proud of it.

charges will alway be higher assuming the inorg had UT since the gas does not.
What I start by doing is add your OQ of gas and avian together, write down that number; add the DR of your gas and avian and write the number down. Lastly, write down the PE of your avian.
Quite simply, you try to match all 3 numbers as closely as possible. I use SWGcraft.com extensively to find the names of materials which meet my criteria.
I recently had a great challenge of 994oq/990+pe with 198 DR avian. That match that took some effort. I ended up with 6 more power and 70 seconds longer. Considering it takes 90 seconds to apply a buff, 70 seconds is within a reasonable amount of time. Instead of paying 225cpu for the avian and 40cpu for the gas, I built it with 10cpu resources available from the bazaar.
Good Luck!

Bah...just used the same resources.
Nothing like going to rebuff and waiting 15 minutes for your action to finally wear off.
Yeh i'm lazy like that too jsut use the avian. I actually get complimented on the fact that my buffs match. Maybe it's my ego but I like that image.
