Tips and Details

  • Double casting will not activate if the Chain Skill is currently memorized, nor can you trigger a Chain Skill from a memorized initial skill.
  • Chain skills used through double casting will not have their cooldowns activated. (e.g. Double casting Gust Storm > Lightning Shower will not activate Lightning Shower's cooldown)
  • Chain skills can be activated even if you do not have them on your skill bar.
    • Locked skills like Lightning Shower must be unlocked in order to be double cast.
  • Chain skills cannot stack "Upon using Strength Skill, Strength Skill's Damage for 10 seconds +*% (5 Stacks)"'s effect and are not affected by MP Cost stat and traits that alter MP cost like the "Critical" trait.
    • "Critical" trait chain skills will still partially ignore defense even though the MP Cost does not increase.
  • Unlike other Chain Skills which perform skills back to back, Double Casting performs the second skill while the first is still going on, allowing for near-simultaneous casting.
    • You can trigger a chain skill as long as the initial skill's animation hasn't allowed you to start moving again.
  • Chain skills will neither consume the Transcendence buff nor receive the 20% damage increase.
