Notes

• The potency of this action is equivalent to four uses of   Glare III (potency = 310). While this makes Lily healing spells damage-neutral (as a total of four casts are needed to charge and then use this action), any leftover charges of the Blood Lily at the end of combat would still be damage-negative. However, if Lily healing spells are used to charge the Blood Lily during downtime (i.e., when no enemies are targetable), this action becomes damage-positive.
• At Lv. 82, learning the   Glare Mastery trait upgrades   Glare (potency = 290) to Glare III, but the potency of this action does not change. In other words, at Lv. 81 and below, this action is damage-positive.
