How to learn

Granted by the equipment:

• Cloak of Elemental Absorption
• Cloak of the Weave

Notes

• This reaction halves damage by granting resistance to the elemental damage type when triggered. Since resistances do not stack, this will not reduce the damage further if the user already has the applicable resistances.
• Absorb Elements can apply its damage bonus multiple times to a single weapon attack.

Bugs

• This reaction cannot be used while affected by  Starry Form.
