Wildwood Wisps

The Viridian Wildwood is an area containing an affliction encounter that can be found in map during Affliction league.

Wisps are a type of non-itemised resource that can be collected while exploring the Wildwood. Wisps do not scale with item quantity from equipment or area modifiers. After exiting the Wildwood area, wisps disperse across the rest of the zone, affecting and enhancing random monsters in a manner somewhat similar to Sentinel’s empowerment. Wisps come in three varieties: Primal, Wild, and Vivid. Each type is used for different Affliction vendors, and provides different benefits when affecting monsters:

  • Vivid Wisps grant a more item quantity bonus. Empowered monsters take reduced damage and gain increased attack, cast, and movement speed.
  • Wild Wisps grant a more item rarity bonus. Empowered monsters take reduced damage and gain additional projectiles and more area of effect.
  • Primal Wisps cause them to drop additional currency items, including eldritch currency, Voidborn Reliquary Key, and Valdo’s Puzzle Box. Empowered monsters take reduced damage and gain more critical strike chance and additional critical strike multiplier.

The quantity of Wisps possessed upon exiting the Wildwood will determine the number of monsters affected as well as the magnitude of the empowerment provided. Multiple types of wisps can affect the same monster, stacking their bonuses.

Wisps can also affect monsters that have not been spawned yet such as Breach monsters, even when they are not on the map after completing the Affliction encounter. Some monsters in the Wildwood can also spawn already affected by Wisps.

The fourth type of wisp, Sacred Wisps, are used exclusively to burn away the darkness in the Wildwood and does not have any other effects. Two types of special Sacred Wisp clusters can be found in the Wildwood; a larger pulsating orb that reveals an area around it, or a smaller dim orb that extends the distance the player can explore in the Wildwood.
