Skills and Attributes

The following skills will affect this combat art:

  • Concentration - will lower this buff's regeneration time penalty.

The following attributes will affect this combat art:

  • Stamina will lower regeneration time penalty.

Usage Strategies

  • This is primarily a weapon-user's buff (and a premium one at that), but a pure spellcaster can squeeze a little bit of usefulness from it with its base Casting Speed boost, Ardor/Spirit silver mod, and Defiance gold mod.
  • Note that, like all CA's in the Sublime Combat aspect, casting speed of this buff is determined by weapon speed, and can be boosted by weapon lore skills and +% attack speed. Likewise, the casting speed will be penalized by wielding a weapon with too high a level.
  • Fanaticism can affect allies. Read the Note About Party Buffs to learn how to avoid a glitch in the base game where buff effects stack infinitely upward.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely useful effects for any weapon-using Paladin
  • Boosts power of party members and allied units

Cons

  • Damage boost applies only to weapons
  • During multiplayer, Paladin must turn off buff before teleporting to party members or reassembling the party, and recast it afterward (to avoid glitching party stats).
