Is it normal for combos to have a delay before recharging?

Hi, I recently got sacred 2 on xbox 360 and am enjoying it a lot.

 

I have one question though, sometimes when I use a combo, after the combo is done it should start recharging, there is a delay before the timer starts on the recharge. it kind of defeats the purpose of the combo when this happens. it can add like 3 seconds to the recharge.

 

is this supposed to happen with combos? whats the deal?

Welcome aboard!

 

It depends on what is in the combo. Some CA's have a cool down separate from the recharge. What do you have in the combo?

it happens with even normal combat arts. it was particulary noticeable with clustering maelstrom and levin array on my inquisitor.

 

and thanks for the welcome.

I can confirm this happens, especially with Combat Arts from the same aspect. Also think the delay is graphical, and that the regen times are still accurate. Pretty sure the game waits to start the circle timer until the regen times from the CAs from the combo are synced up. When you use 2 CAs from the same aspect, the first CA puts the second CA in regen which is probably why you've noticed the circle isn't filling up right away.

yea, and I said 3 seconds in the original post, but its closer to 10, hah.

 

it does it like 90% of the time. I don't yet get what is happening the other 10% to make it recharge normally, how its supposed to.
