— In-game description
Mechanics[edit]
- Allies without stealth entering the refuge also gain stealth, with no target limit (similar to the Mesmer skill Veil).
- Leaving the refuge before it expires will remove stealth and cause Revealed.
- This skill pulses upon activation and each second thereafter.
- Each pulse affects 5 targets and extends the stealth by 3 sec (in PvE) and heals for 355 + (0.18 * Healing Power) at level 80.
- Each pulse revives up to 5 downed allies by 5% per pulse up to 25% over the full duration.
- Staying in the field for its full duration will provide up to 15 seconds of stealth, leaving the stealthed characters 11 seconds of stealth once the field expires.
- The long stealth duration makes this skill useful for communing at hero challenges, reaching vistas while avoiding combat, looting heavily guarded chests, reviving an ally, or finishing enemy players in World versus World and Structured PvP.
