Constentin Lévine Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 If you cast on yourself or on other party member Borrowed instincts (while confused), you can suspend the hostile part of the spell , and this one determine the duration of the beneficial part. Once suspended, you are not confuse anymore, and dont suffering from the -8 penalty in intellect and resolve, only get the +20acc and +20 defenses ; and because the suspending effect can be extended by SoT or WoD if a wizard, you can turn it into a regular buff. That can be very useful against an high will target or high resolve one, in boss fight. It is also amazing as a cipher-wizard imo. I suppose it should work with every other "drain" spells, excepted for the Kaihôa Lost in Time. About cipher's spell, Driving Echoes is not restricted to combat and can be extended after the fight! I didnt know that before today. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaylon Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 VS high resolve enemies I think it's easier to use a fire blight from the belt of Magran's Chosen as a battery for your cipher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Constentin Lévine Posted December 22, 2021 Author Share Posted December 22, 2021 Not for Borrowed Instincts wich fades at combat end, sadly. 10 hours ago, Kaylon said: VS high resolve enemies I think it's easier to use a fire blight from the belt of Magran's Chosen as a battery for your cipher. Maybe it is more easy, in any case that prevent to some loose of time for your party, but the blight have a duration, and only 1% chance to proc. Against the Ooze for exemple, it is commun to buff and SoT your whole party for the duration of the fight. Then you keep the Borrowed Instincts suspension until the combat end. But I agree there are some ways more easy that not require to confuse yourself in first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I agree there are some ways more easy that not require to confuse yourself in first. The blight has no duration and is very easy to proc with multi hit weapons (and you can proc it even before the fight by shooting yourself with dual blunderbusses and Rakhan Field Boots). With Rekvu's Scorched Cloak you can also have free heals for your cipher until the end of the fight. But of course it's always nice to be able to extend the buff for the entire fight. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
