  2. The ability to keep a click power active continuously by reducing its Recharge to less than its Duration. Perma is accomplished with a combination of Recharge Enhancements, IO Set Bonuses, and -Recharge buffs like Hasten.

  • PermaDP - Dull Pain needs a total of +200% Recharge
  • PermaDom - Domination needs a total of +123% Recharge
