Description

You are fuelled by unexpecting energy when on the verge of escape.
Once the Exit Gates are powered, Adrenaline activates:
- Instantly heal the equivalent of 1 Health State.
- Grants a +50% Haste Status Effect for 3 seconds.
Adrenaline ignores an existing Exhausted Status Effect, but causes it for 60/50/40 seconds.

Our take

The moment the Exit Gates power up, you instantly heal the equivalent of 1 Health State and get a +50% Haste Status Effect for 3 seconds. It looks past any Exhausted you already carry, then hands you 60/50/40 seconds of it yourself.

How to use it Meaningful for the last leg, since it needs no button press and activates the instant the gates power. The 60/50/40 seconds of Exhausted it inflicts is the price for that instant heal.

Best for Hope, Reassurance and Sprint Burst all lean on the same escape window, and Adrenaline lands at its end. It answers the end of a match, when a free Health State matters more than another second of Haste.
