Tips and Details

  • As opposed to previous versions, the wind sphere will explode immediately once it's placed on the platform.
  • Smoke Screen can prevent enemies from detecting the targets in range, making it very useful in dungeons like Savage White-Ghost's Castle to prevent Head Bomb from flying to your party members.
  • It is possible to protect your allies from Berthe's Howling in Altar of Invocation with another source of damage reduction, however it will depend on allies' Health.
  • While Evoke debuff is named Armor Break, the effect is in fact unique and stacks with everything.
  • Received Damage Decrease is multiplicative.


Old Version

Video Description
Between its initial release and the 06/20/2019 KR Patch, Evoke floated and traveled straight forward with loose homing properties. If it didn't connect to a target, it would stay in place. It also dealt multiple hits before exploding without leaving a field behind. This incarnation of the skill was originally a Tenacity Special Active and later an Active.
Between the 06/20/2019 and the 05/27/2021 KR Patch, Evoke was an orb which rolled or bounced across the ground if it fell off a platform, until it hit a target, creating a smoke screen which provided brief invincibility to allies inside.
