Condition: Writhing Tide

 Writhing Tide

Duration: 10 turns

• Your swarm is protecting you from surface effects.

How to learn

Classes:

• Class level 7: Swarmkeeper

Notes

• This the only use for  Writhing Currents charges.

• The immunity to surface effects is not applied until after landing, so users are not protected from surface effects when they initially fly into them. However, once the  Writhing Tide condition is active, it is safe to walk over or fly into such surfaces.
