    Is it possible to recharge Signature Skill within 2 mins 10 seconds?

    Hi guys,
    Today while we were running in the Dark Zone we noticed a player use his Survivor Link within 2 minutes and 10 seconds.
    That's 130 seconds. Is this normal?
    He was solo.

    Would he have killed some NPCs on the way to recharge his Signature Skill with a weapon talent?

    Yes this is completely possible. I actually can get mine back faster than that if I have NPC's around. Its a talent called Skilled I think... If you get head shot kills it recharges your signature skil 11% per head shot kills. So killing about 10 NPC's or less will recharge it.

    That's pretty quick, but yeah if you kill enough npc's and run some skill haste/signature skill haste it's probably doable.

    There's a weapon talent that boosts the resource gain by 12-13% by headshot kills - that's how u do it + strong electronics build.

    Ahh cool. Thanks for that. I think this will come in handy in the DZ. Everyone seems to pop them before pulling the trigger.

    You also have natural resource gain for your Signature skill for every kill while it is on cooldown--about 15-20 seconds per kill. Signature Resource Gain adds to this in some way I haven't been able to figure out yet in my testing. Moreover, you extend the duration of your Signature skill about 3 seconds per kill while it is active.

    Skill Haste has no effect on Signature skills.

    Skilled talent. 12%-15% signature refill per headshot kill.
    If theres lots of enemy he can fill it to full in less then a minute

    Here is a handy trick for anyone wanting to have your skills up quickly. The caduceus(and other weapons also) has a talent that reduces your skill timer per headshot. In the division whenever you set somebody on fire or cause bleed damage you see little red numbers ticking on them right? Well those numbers count as a headshot for each tick! With flame bullets, grenades, flame grenades, sticky bomb etc...you can reduce your skills quite rapidly.
