Banner Skills
Tooltip
Banner Skills generate Valour while carried, and can be placed to create powerful Buffing Areas which are more powerful the more Valour was consumed on placement.

Banners are a type of skill that consumes all Valour and place down a banner that provides an aura. The effect of the Banner aura scales with the amount of Valour consumed. Valour is gain by killing enemies with an attack and passively generates while fighting a Unique monster.

Mechanics

Activating a Banner skill will place down that Banner in your current position, granting an aura to allies around it. Moving out the Banner's radius or activating the skill again will remove the Banner. Only one Banner can be placed at a time, unless you have the Tactician passive skill Whoever Pays Best.
