But that's because as you go up in level, your lower level powers have less and less impact. And anyway you're going to retrain them into higher and higher level powers. So you'll pay more and more anyway.
Well, you have to have missed with the encounter power. And then you pay the 1 HP/level to get it back and use it again.
One thing to condsider is that it's strictly inferior to a re-roll power (like Elven Accuracy). First, there's the HP cost, of course. But second, you have to spend another standard action to use the power again. So, is the HP cost worth the difference between the encounter and an at-will you could have used at no HP cost that next round instead? I imagine that'd vary depending on the HP, the level of the power, and your HP/surge levels.
Ahh....much different. Also, is it a immediate or free action, as if it is a minor action, that also greatly diminishes its desirability.
