From what I've heard, blink has a cool down timer after it's used so it can't just be spammed all the time
English
-
Watch the discussion trailer, the third video to the right after immediately opening the app, after he flashes all three armours around the end of the video you see a hunter spamming the teleport button.
-
I think that is the super, not blink. He is not teleporting he is jumping enemy to enemy. The super is made to be a group killer like Nova Bomb and Fists of Havoc but uses close range melee combos to do it.
-
In the multiplayer (I believe) video, it shows blink being used twice very rapidly.
-
It was the 2014 E3 gameplay experience trailer from IGN (on youtube) @ 05:41 you can see what appears to be a blink from the ground up to a ledge and again from the ledge to... wherever.
-
I was referring to the video the person was specifically talking about. They were calling it blink when it obviously wasn't.

Edited by Night Owl: 8/30/2014 11:28:54 AMI understand what you're talking about and I believe you are correct. I'm just responding to the replies stating that blink has a cooldown. I've seen footage that may contradict this, though I can't be certain. I'm keeping my fingers crossed as my warlock was mighty squishy in PVP. I was so bad, I'll take whatever advantage I can get!
-
If you looked through the talent trees back when our characters were on here still, it specifically said in the description that there was a cooldown for Blink. I don't have a picture, but trust me. I pretty much haven't been off here since the beta and I can't stop reading and thinking about Destiny... I need help.

You can go online and still look at the skill trees
-
It doesn't have a cool down
-
There was no mention of a cooldown on the Warlocks skill tree. I don't recall the hunters as clearly.
-
Yes there was.
-
Focused Control: Upgrades Glide for better directional control while in mid-air. Focused Burst: Upgrades Glide to provide an initial burst of speed. Blink: A short distance teleport that replaces Glide. I wrote them down directly from the app when deciding on my final build.
-
Trust me when I say, there will be a cool down. It has been mentioned a few times. You will be able to use blink twice, just like a double jump or lift, then have (pulling this number out of my ass) 25-30 sec cool down. Maybe 45 sec.

Mentioned where?

Edited by Night Owl: 8/30/2014 5:18:50 PMI believe that it may, I just don't know where everyone is getting this information. I recall it being speculated on these forums during the beta and all of a sudden it was taken as fact. Yet nothing from Bungie (that I've seen) has made mention of this. I've been looking for confirmation everywhere but there is nothing I can find other than the Hunter's Blink Strike ability. Edit: Finally found a reference to blinks recharge in the grimoire cards. I have to admit I'm disappointed. I was looking forward to playing around with that.

This may help.
-
Yeah I don't know what to think until I actually test it myself.
