Also, I'll have to add that I use a corrupted build. Excal is more of a late-game frame than a proper starter. I've started a new Excal without uber mods and I the lack of mana usually prevents proper movement utility of the skill. 10 mana is cheaper than other abilities but still a lot if it adds to the 25 and 50 of Excal's other two skills. With proper efficiency and a Siphon, 2.5 mana per jump are regenerated in 4.2 seconds, so I am used to reacting to a situation without ever paying attention to my mana bar.

For new players, this is hard to pull off and the few orbs found throughout the map are better spent on Dashes and Blinds. Which is why Excal's advertising as the perfectly average starter is kinda ridiculous. Super Jump becomes useful during mid- to late-game when the requirements are met.
