Magic defense charms..

Hazardus - Heavens Tear

Ok, now I made some magic defence charms assuming that they would work like attack charms and could be equipped in the utility charm slot. Now I find they can't be equipped but are to be consumed like apothecary potions.

My question is what is the duration for which the damage reduction is in effect. I have received several different answers varying from 60seconds to 90minutes. b:laugh

Magical defense charms will "defend" you from one magical attack. (Currently, though, Damage over Time attacks do not count -- you get no defensive benefit from your charm, and your charm stays active.)

If you do not get hit by any magic attacks, your charm can last for days or weeks.

If you are fighting a boss with ranged magical attacks, you can go through a stack of charms reasonably quickly (and you might even run into charm activation cooldown problems).

Charms also look pretty, when they activate!

Oh I see. So it stays active until I receive a magic attack. And I'm right in thinking it wont automatically be used with each attack received like the attack charms. I need to manually hotkey it.

Ok thanks a bunch! b:thanks
