Skill Design
The skill was first demonstrated at the July 2011 Press Event in the b-roll video. The skill appears to be 3 fetish stacked upon one another with the topmost fetish wearing a mask and waving a staff. The skill creates a green aura on the ground around the fetish which affects party members within radius. It has been said to increase casting speed, but nothing solid has been confirmed.
