Acquisition[edit]

Notes[edit]

  • Your character must have at least Asura rank 3 (Not Too Clumsy) before Kwat will craft this item.
  • The effect does not go away when you die, but does when you travel to a new zone. (This is consistent with other consumables that do not provide Morale Boosts.)
  • Essences of Celerity are often referred to as BUs (back-ups or buff-ups), particularly when used during speed clears that take more than 30 minutes.
