- Delphic Arcania Focus reduces regeneration time as usual.
- Concentration reduces regeneration time as usual.
- Whichever of Intelligence, Strength, or Dexterity modifies your weapon damage will also modify damage for this CA, since its damage is based on weapon damage.

Pros and Cons
Pros
- The mod 2a Life Leech (leech life enhanced by Delphic Arcania Lore ) and the mod 3a Stray Damage (area of effect) work good together, the combat art will drain life from all the opponents nearby.
- Magic Coup has its own built in attack value based on CA level, saving you from having to take a weapon lore skill
- The built in attack value and it's ability to proc the Regen Per Hit multiple times through the mod 3a Stray Damage allows casters to eat more runes without worrying about regeneration times.
