Damage Boost and Sharing: Supported skills gain a 10% increased attack damage bonus. However, these skills also deal 51% less damage when used by the summoned Sacred Wisps. This creates a balance between your direct damage and the damage dealt by your Wisp companions.
Wisp Summoning: The key feature of this support gem is triggering the summoning of Sacred Wisps. Whenever you use a supported attack skill that fires a projectile, there's a chance to summon two Wisps (the maximum).
Wisp Replication: The summoned Wisps will then proceed to use the same supported attack skill you used, mirroring your actions in combat.
Enhanced Rarity Response: The Wisps have a base 25% chance to use the attack skill whenever you fire a projectile. This chance increases by an additional 25% if a rare or unique enemy is nearby. This incentivizes using the skill against tougher foes.
