Notes

  • Items and passive abilities cannot benefit from the conditional buff - they will not gain additional spirit power, duration, or range.
  • The buff which provides the player with the conditional ability range, ability duration, and spirit power lasts for 7 seconds.
  • The first ability cast after gaining the buff will consume the buff.
  • The conditional ability range and ability duration are snapshot on ability use.
  • The conditional spirit power is tied to the 7 second timer of the conditional buff. The +15 spirit power will only be available for 7 seconds after the player initially gains the conditional buff.

Examples:

  • 6 seconds after gaining the conditional buff, Vindicta uses Assassinate.
    • This consumes the buff, and applies +20 spirit power to Assassinate's damage.
  • 6 seconds after gaining the conditional buff, Seven uses Lightning Ball.
    • The buff is consumed.
    • The Lightning Ball gains +15% ability duration and +15% ability range.
    • The Lightning Ball gains +20 spirit power for 1 second only. For the rest of its duration, it does not benefit from +20 spirit power.
  • 6 seconds after gaining the conditional buff, Seven uses Power Surge.
    • The buff is consumed.
    • Power Surge gains +15% ability duration and +15% ability range.
    • Power Surge's damage benefits from +20 spirit power for 1 second only. For the rest of its duration, the damage does not benefit from +20 spirit power.
    • Power Surge's total duration scales natively with spirit power at time of cast. The additional duration due to the +20 spirit power is snapshot on cast, and is not lost when the 7s conditional buff is consumed.
