Skills and Attributes

The following skills will affect this combat art:

  • Mentalism Lore - improves damage, critical chance and casting speed
  • Mentalism Focus - improves regeneration time and maximum combat art levels
  • Concentration - directly improves regeneration time
  • Stamina reduces regeneration time as usual.

Usage Strategies

  • Given its slowing effect, Maelstorm is very well-suited against enemies who have the annoying tendency of running away (such as archers and casters).


Combo Recommendations

  • Energy Blaze and Maelstorm make a fine combination. The blaze hurts a group of enemies, and if they survive, they will be severely crippled by the Maelstorm, leading to some much easier kills.
