Banshee Build

[(XBOX)Oussii]

I have 173% efficiency on banshee and still i am consuming 8 energy/s on Sonic Sound Quake.

Is there a way to reduce that?

You cannot reduce the energy cost of channeled abilities below 25% of the base cost per second. At max drain, resonating quake takes 32 e/s. With the maximum possible drain reduction, that goes to 8 e/s. Fun fact, the way the channel cost formula works with duration means you can have less than 100% duration, but efficiency past 175% still counts towards reducing the drain, down to the floor of 25% of base drain.

Are you talking about her un-Augment'd Sound Quake costing 8 Energy / second?

Because in that case it seems you have (too) low Duration, as that stat factors into constant drain abilities.
At 175% Efficiency you need at least 100% Duration for minimal drain
though you can also go Holhog whole hog and use a full 190% Efficiency, where a mere 40% Duration is going to do the trick.

Resonating Quake is always going to drain Energy like crazy, though,
that's the (more than fair) trade-off to locking down / massacring the entire tile :P

As far as i know, Sound Quake is not affected by duration, but yr energy and damage

Sound Quake is a chanelling ability. Chanelling abilities take Duration and Efficiency into calculation for how much energy is consumed per second. Try balancing between Duration and Efficiency. Or mod like NinjaZeku said.

Yesterday i was able to lower the 8 e/s of sound quake to 3 e/s

And still have one slot empty, need to polarize it couple of time

i use this build no forma needed

u can lock-down entire map 50m radius  and use sonar as well if needed

quick thinking can be replaced with vitality or redirection as you like
