MODicons_12.gif Bronze
  • Premonition - Further increase attack value. (12.5% + 2.5% per Combat Art level increase)
  • Aggression - Further increases weapon damage output. (5% + 1% per Combat Art level increase)

MODicons_10.gif Silver
  • Drill - Reduces the energy cost of Battle Stance. ( If C is the Combat Art level, 100*(50 + C)/(1050 + C) percent reduced; ~5% at C = 1, ~6% at C = 10, ~9% at C = 50)
  • Flexibility - Chance to evade weapon attacks. (20% + 0.2% per Combat Art level chance)

MODicons_08.gif Gold
  • Idol - Extends a portion of the effects to party members. (50% effectiveness to party members, ~8.5m area (estimation))

Skills

The following skills will affect this combat art:

Usage Strategies

  • Permanent
  • Crucial for melee fighters.

Suggested Modification:

  • Bronze: Premonition, with the extra attack value a player will hit hit more often, significantly increasing steady damage output (DPS)
  • Silver: Drill, without this, a player's other Combat Arts may be significantly crippled regarding regeneration time if this Combat Art is raised to high level.
  • Gold: Idol should be chosen if playing with others, Retaliation if not. The low chance of the retaliation limits it's usefulness, but if a player is not playing with others Idol may be useless

Note: In the console version, this Buff will create issues with scrolling in the Bonus Overview. The issues disappear when the Buff is deactivated.
