Notes

• The spirit created by this skill is named Spirit of Extinction.
• This Nature Ritual affects the species that died. See Category:Species for species types.
• Beware the possible backfire of this skill on your party or NPC's that are needed.
• Not all allied human NPCs are considered the same species for the purposes of this ritual. For example, Service NPCs (collectors, merchants, etc) and many non-hostile NPCs (including allies but not henchmen party members) each have their own species category separate from both each other and players.
• This is particularly lethal to minions as most minions will already be below the 90% health requisite due to their innate health degeneration.
• Synergizes well with Fertile Season; when the spirit dies, almost all creatures will be below 90% Health and will kill off a few remaining targets low on health, thus triggering Edge of Extinction. This process is also known as an Edge of Extinction Bomb.
