Quick guide to all weapon/incantation/sorcery/consumable and miscellaneous buffs your character can gain.
Contents
Intro
To make things easier to explain, buffs separate into a handful of categories. Here are the most important ones:
- Body Buffs
- Aura Buffs
- Weapon Buffs
- Regeneration Buffs
- Unique Buffs
When stacking buffs, take in mind you can only have: 1 active Body buff, 1 active Aura buff, 1 active Weapon buff on each weapon wielded, 1 Regeneration buff. Unique buffs do not overwrite each other, meaning you can stack as many of them as you’d like!
