No. I do not consider the 100% uptime Debunked. it's true. If you are not attacked, the bubble will be up 100% of the time. You think that is bad play style is not debunking anything.
100% uptime with absolutely Z E R O effect on A N Y T H I N G in-game is the same as non-existent. The fact is we consider only play that affects balance on the balance forums; no 1v1, no outliers like stacking morales etc. Running a bubble 100% of the time for no reason and with no effect on anything or anyone should not be considered as affecting balance and as such, should not be a reason to change the M1 effective time.
Below is the post from this thread wherein you implied that a 20 sec CD would require skill to use effectively and conversely, a 60 CD takes no skill:
Sorry, but no. The skill argument, if that's where you are headed to justify this change, should not be allowed in this thread as your premise is the 100% uptime is the issue with the ability, and not the lack of skill in using it. I will state that with a 60 sec cooldown, using the ability for no reason is a viable method to use it if you are attacked. If you are not attacked, then it doesn't matter and has zero effect on balance. If you are making the argument that it takes no skill to fire the M1 and it's there when you need it, the same can be said of any reactive ability or tactic in the game.
Funny how a well stated and respectful rebuttal to your arguments is trolling. Sorry if you feel this way, but based upon your original post, the issue was 100% uptime. Many players on here disagree with YOUR definition of 100% uptime. I have proven how the use of the ability with your definition of 100% uptime has zero effect upon balance. I have stated how the ability, when used by the player being attacked, is quickly nullified by damage, and that the ability cannot be refreshed until the morale CD is ready, and not before. If you told me I could spam a 3600 damage shield at-will, I would agree it needs a CD, but the fact is, I cannot.

It has a 60s duration, how could you say it was NOT unintended to be used that way? Other than the designers, no one knows the answer to how it was intended. By the duration of it though, the argument that being used on CD was thought of, cause you can.
Please refrain from abusive comments like this. You have the answer to this already above.
