Notes[edit | edit source]

Includes any loss of shields, including environmental damage (needs retesting after update 27.2).
Does not trigger on Rhino's Iron Skin taking damage or on taking damage to health.

Tips[edit | edit source]

Strong synergy with Hildryn and Adaptation, allowing shields to resist high amounts of damage and continually be restored to full.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

This arcane was originally dropped in The Law of Retribution and its associated Nightmare Mode. Following Update 22.14, all Trial missions were retired from the game and the arcane drops in turn were moved to the Eidolons instead.
