Build Use

A universal bonus that works with any weapon or role: all your damage and healing goes up by 5%, rising to 8% at Tier 4. The catch is that getting hit turns the bonus off for 5 seconds and puts a debuff on you (called Cage in the base text and Hearthbound in the tiers) that makes you take more damage, set to 3% at Tier 1.

Tier 3 softens the downside: after you land any attack, the Hearthbound debuff is switched off for 5 seconds. Tier 6 goes further: while the bonus is up, your hits mark the target, and getting hit by a marked enemy no longer turns the bonus off. Tiers 2 and 5 add Min Physical Attack and 5.1 Physical Penetration.

This rewards clean play. Ranged builds, healers and players who dodge or deflect reliably keep the bonus up far more often than melee builds that trade hits, at least until Tier 6 protects you against marked targets.
