Earth

• Geomancer's Training — You receive less damage from nearby foes. Earth weapon skills gain reduced recharge.

Notes

• This is a piercing attack.
• The projectile(s) from this skill keeps to the ground, meaning that it can be aimed only horizontally; its path vertically is always along the ground. It also means that targets cannot be hit if there is a gap or large elevation in the ground between the target and the caster (e.g. harpy jumping puzzle in Uncategorized Fractal).
• Unlike other skills with no cast time, this skill cannot be used while casting a skill, and will be queued if this is attempted.
