In the Invocation line for the Revenant the first minor states

“Summon an orbiting globe of mist when you spend energy. The globe is destroyed upon legend swap.”

The next is called “Revitalizing Breath” and it says…

“Pull in and absorb all replenishing globes when you invoke a legend. The healing from the globes has increased effectiveness.”

So what do these globes do? Do they not heal you until you get the second trait? But the second minor says that it increased the heal from the orbs so do they base heal you or not? Then why does the first minor just say that they’re destroyed on legend swap? Anyone know what’s up with this mechanic?

it’s to prevent you from spamming the globes, the second minor still “destroys” them but this time you actually profit from it because you pull them in to get the heal.

without the 2nd minor (which you will have all the time anyway because you will have full traitlines all the time) you would just have to walk through the globes to get the heal.

Is that actually how it works? It says orbiting globe, which sounds like it goes around you? How do you walk through something that orbits you? Or is that just fancy wording…?

If you are below level 80 you wouldn’t have full trait line, which is likely the only time this will matter.

I believe that they also heal any allies that come in contact with them. The second minor just makes it possible to use them on yourself instead of only being able to heal allies.

Why would the first minor be something that makes you weaker?
