Your focus on magic gives you a glimpse of total clarity, allowing you to cast your next spell without cost. Also permanently increases the effectiveness of your mana shield, and reduces the cast time lost from damage.

Skill Usage

Arcane Focus is an active skill with additional passive effects towards Mana Shield and reduces the amount of cast time lost from taking damage. It is unlocked by Mage in the Arcane skill tree, being a necessary prerequisite for Bind Elemental and Arcane Might, while requiring at least one point in Harvest Mana to unlock. It is similar to the Priest skill Divine Clarity, but instead it makes a skill cast instantly.

When used, a rotating circle of arcane energy appears on your character and vanishes, leaving with a buff that reduces the cost of your next spell by 100%. It lasts 15 seconds until it expires, or when another skill is used during the duration. It can be combined with any skill that consumes mana.

Notes

Due to it's high cooldown, Arcane Focus is often used at the start of boss battles, to cast AoE skills such as Fire Wall or Blizzard.
