Cheetah Swiftness does have an auto balance/stand effect but seemingly leaves you rolling around on the ground without any balance increase past very badly balanced. (see below)

P> ch bal
You are extremely imbalanced.

Your cambrinth orb thrums softly as it discharges as much power as necessary, leaving a great amount left for future use.
You gracefully tumble and position yourself where you are, causing you to feel a little more balanced!
P> ch bal
You are very badly balanced.

While i see its increasing prone balance, is there any way it can further increase it past very badly balanced until it makes you stand back up?

You'll just lay around very badly balanced until you get lucky enough for it to stand you up. (see below)

You are off balance.

You are solidly balanced.

> ch bal
You are nimbly balanced.


The possible bug here i believe is while it is boosting balance while prone it seems to stop at very badly balanced, which probably isn't going to help you stand up any quicker. Intended?

I second the previous post. I thought this spell to be very lackluster, as well.

The leaping to your feet thing doesn't happen nearly enough. As an Esoteric spell, I thought it would have more oomph.

Also, the documentation states that it is 1 spell slot? Is this right? I would rather pay 3 slots for a spell that actually did something useful (i.e. brought me to my feet).

Thanks
