Mender skill · aims at himself · evolves into Flood Rite

Clearwater Rite

Washes ills off the heroes near you; for a breath nothing hurts them. It works around the Mender himself, so it needs no target.

Play

It is on the hero’s skill tree from the start: one level-up point learns it.

Rank by rank

Each level up to 30 brings one point for the skill tree, then every second level does: a point learns a skill you do not have while one of your 6 slots is free, or adds the next rank of one you have, up to rank 5. These are the lines the tree shows for each rank:

Evolution: Flood Rite

Rank 5 + Broad Shoulders → Flood Rite. Hold Clearwater Rite at rank 5 and any rank of Broad Shoulders, and its gold evolution node on the skill tree can take your next point. The wash reaches farther, and those it cleanses stay untouchable half as long again.

Broad Shoulders is also the key to Bitter Draught and Raising Hand, so one passive can open three evolutions.
