- Astral Lord Focus - reduces regeneration time and allows for higher level combat art without penalty, allows for modification points.
- Concentration - directly improves regeneration time

- Damage Lore - will improve the chance, duration, and strength of the secondary damage effects triggered by Skeletal Fortification: Open Wounds, Weaken (if Arcane Power is taken), and Freeze (if Ice Shards is taken).
The following attributes will affect this combat art:
- Intelligence will increase its damage and spell intensity
- Stamina will lower regeneration time
Usage Strategies
- Casting this under a monster sometimes launches them high up into the air, but apparently only if it kills them on the first hit, which isn't helpful.
- Firing frequency increases by 0.1 seconds for every 50 levels of Skeletal Fortification.
- If enemy is static (not moving) placing Skeletal Fortification directly underneath certain enemies, like Dragons and Guardians, will enable SF to strike enemy twice. Works best when using Shadow Veil and no summons are present.
- With Focus cooldown modification, 2 towers may be active at one time. With higher CA levels 3 or 4 towers may be active as the cooldown is reduced by 1 second per 30 levels(.1s/3 CA). This allows an Astral Lord player to easily compensate for moving enemies as well as punish larger less mobile monsters such as bosses.
