Modified reserves or Energy cell?

#1

I know modified reserve regenerates energy fast but what does energy cell do?? Does it mean you have more energy to use (blue bar)???

Yes it’s a substantial difference. I prefer modified reserve though.

Modified reserves is better on classes with smallest energy pools. Energy works best on preds with larger energy pools (ie elder)

Or you could just go Scout with Light Bender + Modified reserves and actually -gain- energy during cloak+vision.

That wasn’t what he asked.
Also modified reserves + heated nets a greater energy return in thermal+cloak than reserves+light bender on scout.
Reserves+Light bender yields better results on Hunter/Elder for permanent cloak builds.

I like modified personally, since it gives every pred except Viking, samurai and berserker infinite cloak for 2 damn perk points. Can be used on almost any build and is always usable

Modified Reserves > Energy Cell

Energy Cell just increases your energy pool, but Modified Reserves increases the regeneration rate.

So figure this… some classes have a unique Energy consume rate. If you put mod reserves on a hunter, boom, infinite cloaking or thermal. Energy Cell just extends the time in which your Energy is consumed. You won’t get infinite anything with it… in conclusion its fucking useless on any build.

modified reserves - not only regenerates your energy faster but also slows down its drain. On hunter, JH and CH it completely stops energy drain for cloak. On scout, it stops drain on heat vision and clock if both are used simultaneously.
On the other hand, energy cell gives you additional 2 plasma shots… so it’s a no brainer
