How to Use the Delsere's Magnum Opus Set
Delsere's Magnum Opus enhances the damage of Arcane Orb,
Energy Twister,
Explosive Blast,
Magic Missile,
Shock Pulse,
Spectral Blade and
Wave of Force on enemies
affected by
Slow Time, and resets the cooldown of the latter through
their use. While DMO locks you down into the use of
Slow Time, you
have considerable freedom with your choice of a main damage dealing skill,
as well as the synergy that you build it around.
- 2-piece bonus
- Casting Arcane Orb, Energy Twister, Explosive Blast, Magic Missile, Shock Pulse, Spectral Blade, or Wave of Force reduces the cooldown of Slow Time by 3 seconds.
- 4-piece bonus
- You take 60% reduced damage while you have a Slow Time active. Allies inside your Slow Time gain half benefit.
- 6-piece bonus
- Enemies affected by your Slow Time and for 5 seconds after exiting take 8500% increased damage from your Arcane Orb, Energy Twister, Explosive Blast, Magic Missile, Shock Pulse, Spectral Blade, and Wave of Force abilities.
The 2-piece set bonus sets the foundation of the DMO playstyle by allowing you
to reset the cooldown of Slow Time through the use of the
aforementioned skills.
The 4-piece set bonus features the traditional damage reduction, applicable
only while you have a Slow Time active — a trivial bonus to
maintain considering the 2-piece bonus. Note the additional group synergy —
your allies will receive half the damage reduction benefit as long as they stand
inside your
Slow Time bubble.
The 6-piece set provides the lion's share of damage multiplication, applicable
only for skills from the list above, and only against enemies that are under
(or have recently exited) the Slow Time bubble.
