In Last Epoch, the suffix "of Shifting" with the effect "Ward Gained on use with Shift" is a specific affix found on helmets and body armor. This suffix offers a defensive benefit focused on ward generation triggered by using the Shift key.
Here’s a breakdown of its functionality and how it impacts your character:
Functionality:
When you press and hold the Shift key and then release it (essentially performing a dodge using the Shift key), you gain a small amount of ward.
The exact amount of ward gained varies based on the tier of the suffix, typically ranging from 16 to 100 ward per use.
This effect is categorized as a movement skill interaction, meaning it only triggers the ward gain when you dodge successfully and not when the Shift key is held without dodging.
Impact on Builds:
This suffix is ideal for builds that utilize ward as their primary defense mechanism, similar to the "of Rapacity" suffix.
It can be particularly beneficial for characters who:
Rely heavily on dodging: Builds focusing on dodging attacks can gain additional ward and potentially reach higher ward thresholds for specific skill or passive effects.
Utilize skills with Shift key interactions: Some skills might have specific functionalities linked to the Shift key (e.g., aiming a spell). In such cases, the ward gain can serve as an additional benefit alongside the skill’s primary function.
Additional Considerations:
Similar to other ward-related suffixes, it offers minimal value to characters that don’t rely on ward as a primary defense mechanism.
The effectiveness of this suffix depends on your frequency of dodging and the specific build synergy with Shift key interactions.
Recommendations:
Build Synergy: Ensure your character heavily utilizes ward mechanics and potentially incorporates dodging strategies before choosing "of Shifting."
Alternative Suffixes: If your build doesn’t focus on these aspects or lacks synergy with the Shift key, consider suffixes offering alternative defensive benefits that better suit your overall strategy.
