Is it normal for the delay to use the repair kit?

[galaxy]

Is everyone thinking this delay that you have to use the repair kit is bad? Or is it just me having this problem? there was a time that in bossfights I spammed the button to use the kit but it still didn't heal

Were you attacking? It doesn't pop if you are attacking.

can only use repair kits if you are not firing any weapons. once i figured that out it worked a lot smoother for me. was having the same issue. i think Reddit told me.

Also doesn't seem to work if you're staggered. So...y'know. Beware of enemies that like to dogpile you in the time you get staggered.

You can't heal if you are locked into another animation. If you are attacking, you can't heal. If you are stunned and getting comboed, then you can't heal. Etc.

This is why terminal armor is good. A boss can't just combo you to death instantly. If they stunlock you, terminal armor will auto pop, then you can heal afterwards.

Ap at 50... AP at 30 percent.

Raven, your AC is damaged! Focus on evasive action!

NO! 621... not like this...

A short delay of like, 2 seconds can feel like an eternity when a boss is doing a mega combo for 5, yeah.

I realized, on the last hit to finish the ibis I was 1 hit away from dying and my heal wasn't working

It depends really. There are repait kit upgrades.

The time to use a repair kit is when either getting hit and staggered (low health or half health, depending), or when not right next to a boss that can pummel you suddenly.

When I noticed my healthbar in the red in a boss fight I use a repair kit. Saved my ass when fighting V1. Maxed the upgrades for it.

Before I had upgrade repair kits I was using them more. Around half health. Because it heals for less then the player will be thinking about reparing more often.

If you have more than 8000 AP, then then best time to use a repair kit is when you get the message that you are at 50%. A max upgraded repair kit heals like 4000 AP.

Repair kits cannot be used if they are on cooldown (obviously), while you're firing a weapon, or while you're staggered.

I see you felt that comment in your very soul. You have my sympathies and understanding...mostly because it's happened to me at 30% AP quite a few times too.

Every time I got a stagger vs Ibis she immediately did the full blade beam combo.... The pain...
