The more this develops, the more it just seems like an overall bad idea for there to be such a delay on the generation of runic energy.

My personal recommendation would honestly be to change to the standard Energy resource, and have Reconstruction increase the regeneration rate. I'd then balance Reconstruction against, having a shorter delay and higher health regeneration.
