— In-game description

•   Off-guard

Flavor Text

A variant on a salamander specialty, Peculiar Light disperses radiance naturally emitted during spellcasting into a half-globe, clouding victims' vision. Thus unbeknownst to them, malignant aether lurking within the rapidly reflecting beams renders them more susceptible to further aetherial assaults.

Other Tips

• Use this when following up with any magic type spells.
• While it shares a cooldown with   Off-guard, it also does not overwrite it (i.e., both effects can be active at the same time on an enemy).
