Changes from default version

Unlike the original skill, this Trarthan version has lower base damage and damage effectiveness, duration, and does not inflict exposure on hit. It converts 50% of physical damage to fire damage instead of 25% fire and 25% lightning, and its base duration does not scale with level. The wave expands in a circular nova around the user then contracts when its duration expires, dealing damage both ways.

Skill functions and interactions

Wave count limit: Casting Wave of Conviction of Trarthus while there is another Wave active will cause the first Wave to disappear shortly after. This can result in the skill failing to hit an enemy if it is overwritten early. The wave limit is shared with your proxies and will overwrite each other.

Both area of effect and skill duration affect the maximum distance the wave can travel, but area of effect widens the ring's width while duration increases the time it takes for the wave to fully surge outwards then return.
