— In-game description

Residual Anxiety is a 3-minute effect applied to players during the Cosmic Observatory strike mission from the following sources:

Notes[edit]

  • Reaching 10 stacks of this effect results in the player losing control and turning hostile to other players.
    • This resets the stack counter to zero.
    • Hostile players will stay hostile, indefinitely, until put into downstate or hit by a disabling effect (daze, stun, knockback, fear... etc).[verification requested]
    • Hostile players will be immune to Non-disabling control effects (cripple, slow, chill, blind... etc).
    • Hostile players will retain control over their skills, however they will be automatically taunted for 2s towards a party/subgroup member.[verification requested]
    • Hostile players can provide boons, including stealth to Dagda.
    • Hostile players will be allied with Dagda and other hostile players.
    • If all players are downed/turned hostile, the instance will reset with the squad defeated.
  • During the challenge mode, stacks of this effect become permanent and can only be reset once the player loses control.
  • In order to get the achievement, "Precision Anxiety", you have to get 10 stacks in order to be turned hostile, and then get back to your normal state without being downed.
