Modifier
Requirements
- Preparation learned; first recorded spellbook level 30.
- Select Preparation in Subtlety: minimum 21 valid points in that tree including this talent. Legacy point eligibility does not establish early spell acquisition.
Known limitations
- Research only: not tested in the Forever client. Beta spell names, parser behaviour and requirements may change.
- English spell names; check your spellbook and actual learned rank. Source IDs identify reference ranks, not a forced rank-1 cast.
- Range, line of sight, resources, cooldowns and the global cooldown still apply. A macro does not detect readiness or choose your next combat action.
- Does not inspect which cooldowns are active or which abilities the current beta resets. Use only after checking the cooldowns you intend to reset.
- Keep the listed modifier combination free of conflicting action-bar bindings. Each chosen spell requires its own keypress; this is not a sequence.
Notes
- Researched 27 September 2026 against source beta build 1.60.1.70009. Spec lists are recommendations; actual learned spells and selected talents determine eligibility.
