New Verses in Infinite Archive Update 43

Verses are temporary buffs that only last until the next stage.

  • Extravagant Elixirs: Careful consumption creates countless constricting elixirs! Consuming a potion creates a shower of elixirs that target nearby enemies and random nearby locations.

  • Reflected Ruin: Store Blocked Damage and release it at enemies using Bash! Blocking damage instantly heals your party for 33% of the amount blocked. Bash triggers Reflected Ruin which consumes all stored damage and deals Physical damage in the amount of the stored damage. The damage increases based on your maximum health. Bashing with at least 8000 damage stored expands Reflected Ruin to hit all enemies within 20 meters.
  • Tempest: A powerful Tempest Caller comes to your aid! Summon the aid of a Tempest Caller who generates an immense storm on your location dealing x Shock Damage to nearby enemies.

  • Undead Avatar: Transform into an Avatar of the undead.
    Slain enemies empower you, increasing your Damage Done by 5%. This effect stacks. Once every 30 seconds you may call “Call the Dead” and create a graveyard to call forth the fallen. These minions defend you until their death cast Fear on nearby enemies.

    • Damage Done: 30%
