Powers

Agile

You become innately more Agile, and are able to naturally avoid some ranged attacks and resist Defense DeBuffs. Your Agility also grants you minor Damage Resistance to all damage except Toxic and Psionic. This Damage Resistance is only available as you lose Health but it improves as your HP declines. This power is always on, and will permanently increase your Defense versus ranged attacks.

Effects	Auto: Self +Defense(Ranged), +Resistance(All Damage but Psionics and Toxic (Scaling), Defense Debuff)
Enhancements	Enhance Defense Buffs
Set Categories	Defense

Chrono Shift

You cause nearby allies to act more quickly by allowing them to slip through the time stream seamlessly. Chrono Shift will greatly increase the Recharge Speed of nearby allies for the duration of the power, additionally for a short while the flow of time will constantly undo a portion of your allies' wounds causing them to periodically recover health. An ally affected by Temporal Selection will recover additional health from Chrono Shift. Chrono Shift will apply a regeneration bonus instead of heal over time for a short while if the user is in a PvP zone.
