Notes[edit]

  • This trait's recharge reduction stacks with Mechanized Deployment for thrown elixirs.
  • For several Elixirs this trait increases the base duration of boons allowing to bypass the usual 100% limit for boon duration.
  • Might will be applied in a 240 radius for tossed elixirs, even if the actual skill has a radius of 180, and only applies once per cast (ie. not once per tick of duration).
