Carian Retaliation

Carian Retaliation is a staff swing that cancels incoming sorceries and incantations and turns their power into glintblades that strike back. It needs good timing, and it is mostly useful against enemy casters. A niche but satisfying tool for Intelligence players.

Where to find it

Buy it from Preceptor Seluvis in Liurnia of the Lakes for 9,000 Runes. If Seluvis dies first, give Seluvis’s Bell Bearing to the Twin Maiden Husks at the Roundtable Hold and buy it there.

Item description & lore

The Carian royal family kept this sorcery in secret as a safeguard against the academy turning on them, for they knew the moon and the stars would one day part ways.

Notes & tips

  • It only works against sorceries and incantations, so time the swing to meet the incoming spell.
