Hermetic Harmony

Description

The foundation of all Alchemic Sharpshooter skills is the ability to infuse arrows with pure elemental energy drawn from alchemical crystals. The primary element determines the nature of the skill itself, while the secondary element adds an additonal effect. Depending on the combination of elements chosen, one of six different reactions will be catalyzed. Proficiency in this skill is influenced by both Alchemic Sharpshooter proficiency and Alchemy Mastery of each element used. Secondary elements can be added after selecting a skill by pressing the key corresponding to that element (1, 2, 3, or 4.)

Details

The element marble when applying elements to arrows, showing the previously pressed key.

• Allows the player to mix up the elements of the Alchemic Sharpshooter skills by adding a secondary element to the unleashed arrows.
• After loading a skill, the secondary element is then chosen with the 1, 2, 3 or 4 keys.
  • The combo chosen will be saved and applied each time you load the skill.
    • For instance, when you prepare Ignis Plume, pressing the 3 key and then the 2 key, will unleash a Fire + Water arrow, and when you next use Ignis Plume, Water will be already loaded by default.
  • Only the last key pressed will be taken in account when remembering combos.
• The Element preset is separate for each individual Alchemic Sharpshooter skill.
