Burnout allows you to instantly recharge Flurry, Whirlwind, and all of your Primary and Secondary powers, as well as resist slow effects for 60 seconds. Additionally, your running speed and jump height will greatly increase, while also providing a high amount of defense for 60 seconds. This power places the Burnout Acceleration effect on you. While this is briefly in effect, Flurry will recharge instantly and Whirlwind will cost no endurance per foe hit. Burnout is very expensive in terms of endurance and reduces your maximum endurance slightly for 60 seconds after use.
