Traits that are improved by this trait

Marksmanship

• Lead the Wind — Your longbow and harpoon-gun skills pierce and recharge faster. Striking foes beyond the range threshold grants boons.

Nature Magic

• Fortifying Bond — When you gain a boon, it is shared with your pet.

Soulbeast

• Fresh Reinforcement — Entering beastmode grants you the boons affecting your pet.
• Live Fast — Using a Beast ability grants you offensive boons.

Notes

• This trait applies its boon-extending effect prior to receiving boons from any skill that triggers it, preventing the trait from extending the duration of any boons the skill itself applies.
  • This skill triggers even if you have no current boons, causing the trait to have no effect while also going on cooldown.
