Usage Strategies

• A high Reflective Emanation combined with a high Grim Resilience makes the Shadow Warrior practically invincible
• Gold mod 'Idol' works on summons also (Nether Allegiance and Rallied Souls). Note however that this will give each minion a spikeshield animation (that cannot be toggled off) that can cause the screen to become chaotic and also significantly lower framerate and game performance when several minions are on screen.

Note: In the console version, this Buff will create issues with scrolling in the Bonus Overview. The issues disappear when the Buff is deactivated.

• Can be modded to reflect almost any combination of the major types of attacks and detrimental effects.
