Mechanics

• The radius for revival underwater is 240 units around the guardian.
• The skill revives other allied characters from the Downed state only, and not the Defeated state. Defeated NPC allies can be resurrected.
• The skill may fail to revive a downed ally if they are poisoned and below a certain health threshold.
• If this skill successfully revives an ally it will activate Relic of Mercy if it is equipped.

Related traits

Radiance

• Perfect Inscriptions — Signets gain improved passive effects and continue to grant their passive bonuses while recharging.
