Flavor Text

Instinctive to beastkin, Bristle channels sheer animalistic rage into heightened spiritual and physical power. The blue mage will find that she can adapt this technique to increase her spells' potency.

Tips

Other Tips

• Specifically cannot be stacked after you have used   Whistle.
• Bristle's buff is called "Boost".
• Only affects the potency of spells (i.e. actions on the global cooldown/GCD), not abilities.
• Pairs best with damage-over-time spells or spells with long recast times, as the relative potency gain can then exceed 220 (the standard potency of blue mage GCD actions).
  • Examples:   Song of Torment,   Mortal Flame,   Breath of Magic,   Matra Magic

History
