Overview
Overview
The Fused Inheritance (the Archer's Split Volley + the Chronomancer's Temporal Echo) fires on its own — and under Agony it also fires every time Temporal Return, cast on its own, rewinds time.
Good for: Echo bosses T12–T20: well above Looping Inheritance.
Strengths
- Boss above Looping Inheritance on the bench
- Hands-free: the Inheritance goes out on its own, two ways
- No Rupture
Weaknesses
- Little available health (79% sealed)
- Clear on par with the original, not higher
- Requires the Fusion node and two Forms
