How does the Inspire aced skill work (distance, interaction speed)?

INSPIRE

BASIC

You revive crew members faster. 50% increase to revive speed.

ACE

You can revive crew members at a distance by shouting at them.

Before I buy this expensive ace, I'd like to know exactly how it works. I've been looking over Youtube to find some in-game examples, but didn't find anything concluding.

• Do I need to have a direct line of sight on my teammate?
• What's the distance to maintain with him in order to make the skill work?
• Is the speed the same than when you revive someone while standing next to him?
• Anything other pros or cons I should know about?

Solution 1:

The inspire ability has a 100% chance to revive your teammate by shouting at them (20 second cooldown). You can revive through walls and floors by looking at them and shouting. I believe the range that this works over is tied into the range of your shout ability (which can be increased with the Mastermind third tier bonus).

The speed is faster than the usual method of reviving as shouting is an instant ability, when inspire procs your target will get up immediately. However, due to the way ranged targeting works in Payday 2, in the event there is another player (or enemies, if you're in line of sight) near the player that is downed it can be difficult to target the correct player.
