Mechanics

Without other items and passive skills, the maximum stack of Intensity is 3.

Intensify and Pinpoint Support cannot support triggered skills, Vaal skills, instant skills, channelling skills, skills with a reservation or which create minions, or skills used by totems, traps or mines. Similarly, Crackling Lance will only gain Intensity when you "cast it", implying you do not gain Intensity if the skill is used by totems, traps or mines, or if it is triggered.

When a gem is added to or removed from an item which currently has a skill with Intensity stacks socketed, those Intensity stacks are removed. The skill also stops gaining Intensity from (for example) the Spells which have gained Intensity Recently gain 1 Intensity every 0.50 seconds modifier on Apex ModeApex Mode
