Abilities

Basic Information

• Profession: Any
• Locale: Space
• Game Description:
• Build Inspiration when you use Bridge Officer abilities while in combat. Command Bridge Officer abilities generate double Inspiration.
• Once your Inspiration meter is full, you can use an Inspiration ability. Once used, your Inspiration meter is reset to 0 and you will be unable to generate Inspiration for a short time.

Abilities

When the inspiration meter is full, Command ships can use one of the three Ability: Inspiration Abilities on this target. These powerful abilities buff you and your teammates.

Turn the Tide

While active, you and your teammate will regenerate hull very quickly and have their damage resistances increased substantially. Activating this ability requires a full bar of Inspiration. Multiple stacks of this ability will extend the duration instead of stacking the potency of this effect.

Against All Odds

While active, you and your teammates will gain a substantial bonus to damage as well as a massive reduction in weapon power cost. Activating this ability requires a full bar of Inspiration. Multiple stacks of this ability will extend the duration instead of stacking the potency of this effect.

Ability/User Rank	CD	Ability Effects
N/A	2 min	to self: -All Inspiration to target: +33% All Damage for 15 sec to team: -100% Weapon Power Cost to self: Inspiration generation lockout for 15 sec

Battle Preparation

When activated, all of your team's Bridge Officer abilities will receive a massive reduction in remaining charge time. This will cause most abilities to immediately fully recharge or very nearly fully recharge. Activating this ability requires a full bar of Inspiration, has a longer recharge time than other Inspiration abilities, and once affected by this ability, you can neither use nor be affected by this ability for a period of time.

Ability/User Rank	CD	Ability Effects
N/A	2 min	to self: -All Inspiration to self: Inspiration generation lockout for 15 sec to team: Cannot use or be affected by Battle Preparation for 120 sec Bridge Officer power recharge times reduced dramatically
