A few questions about Divination Distillate.

I'll buy a Divination Distillate and I have a few questions about it.

1: If I buy a bad legacy roll and divine it, will it reroll within legacy brackets, or will it lose its legacy properties?

2: Are the effects applied when the kill happens, or when you summon whatever gets the kill? In other words: Do I have to pop it before casting the totems, or when the boss is about to get into culling range?

3: I take it that its effect only applies while you aren't at full hp/mana. What would be the best way to make sure that it works? To switch gear so a couple auras turn off? To use a high-cost skill with BM?

Edit for an extra question: If I get two of those flasks, I'd be able to have over 100% resistances to everything. Would that mean I'd be entirely immune to elemental damage while its effect lasts?

Thanks in advance.

Good questions. In for the answer.
Stormcalling 24/7.
1 - Divine will lower it to non-legacy status.
2 - When you kill.
3 - Flasks that eats mana to heal life is the best way, compbined with a high mana cost vs. mana regen.
4 - Yes, you're immune to elemental damage while it lasts if you reach 100%.

I can answer a few -


1: If you divine any legacy item it rerolls within the newer values - it will become non-legacy with the Divine.

2: Not sure on this one, I've never used Divination with a delayed kill character. I Would assume tho that the buff needs to be in place when the kill happens.


3. The buff does disappear if you stop regaining mana and health - keep your Divination at 0% quality to reduce the heals it gives and have something you can cast/spam to make sure it keeps ticking for the full duration of time.

Thanks a lot for the answers. (:

Only if a single Flask gets you to 100%. You can't stack same-type Flask effects.

Oh, that sucks.
Ah, well. 97% is pretty good even if it doesn't make me entirely immune.

Hmm, not entirely true... You can safely divine some rare items without losing legacy mods

As far as I know, the only mod on a rare item that can be divined without losing it's legacy stat is IIQ, which is no longer a mod so it doesn't have a new value. It would be considered a legacy mod instead of a legacy value. So he's technically right. Although I haven't seen anyone confirm that it works without erasing the mod completely. Now that I think about it, I'm not sure if implict mods like the +%all resist on shields get re-rolled with the new values either.

Well, as far as I know y'all are both wrong then. You can still successfully divine legacy archon shields without losing the implicit +24% all res mod.

You can also divine shields with the legacy resplendent mod without losing it.

There are more examples outside shield mods that I know of.
