Trait
Paracausal Affinity
Final blows of energy types matching this weapon's alignment grant increased damage for a short period of time. Light final blows boost Arc, Solar, and Void weapons. Darkness final blows boost Stasis and Strand weapons.
Paracausal Affinity is a Season 20 basic trait that rewards energy-matched kills. A final blow with an energy type matching the weapon's alignment grants a temporary damage boost. Light weapons (Arc, Solar and Void) are boosted by Light final blows. Darkness weapons (Stasis and Strand) are boosted by Darkness final blows.
The bonus is about 20% damage for 6 seconds, or 7 seconds on the Enhanced version. It rolls on Mykel's Reverence, Vision of Confluence and Nessa's Oblation, among others.
